Watch The Patriot (2000) Now: AAN.SonyPictures.com/ThePatriot
In 1776 South Carolina, widower and legendary war hero Benjamin Martin (Mel Gibson) finds himself thrust into the midst of the American Revolutionary War as he helplessly watches his family torn apart by the savage forces of the British Redcoats. Unable to remain silent, he recruits a band of reluctant volunteers, including his idealistic patriot son, Gabriel (Heath Ledger), to take up arms against the British. Fighting to protect his family's freedom and his country's independence, Martin discovers the pain of betrayal, the redemption of revenge and the passion of love.

When you hate a person in a movie, that is a great actor.
This is the man that played in Harry Potter films as Lucius Malfoy and also played skekso The Skeksis emperor in the dark Crystal age of resistance
Lucius Malfoy couldn't you be nice for a minute or two? Why do you have to burn all the people in the church? I have watched this movie many times and it is in my opinion the saddest and hardest scene to watch
That or they're written to be absolutely despicable characters
My late father said that any actor that can make you love or hate them more than earned their pay.
@@monkeycat48 He's done a lot more (and better) movies than that trash for unimaginative, boring children.
The look Tavington gives Wilkins after he says "Burn the church, captain." is so cold and unforgiving.
Gran actor!
He's cold and unforgiving.
That little chuckle he gives before 'burn the church' is amazing
I actually think he expected the guy to refuse. He knows he has no right to issue such an order. Had the other officers stood together, they could have prevented this from happening. But the Loyalist was so eager to prove that he was on their side...he allowed himself to be bullied into it...
Imagine people rebel against today's US government and overthrow all legitimate authorities. What are they called? Terrorist, yes. That's what so called "patriots" were, and are. Read some history and google what happened to "Loyalists" in the US, how they got butchered everywhere, their land and possessions were stolen. So called "patriots" were nothing but rapist, murderer rebels. They also continued to support slavery even after it was abolished in the British Empire for a hundred years. There is no heroism behind the US's foundation and Holywood can't change it. By the way, this entire church burning is FICTION. It is unbelievable how stupid Americans are.
no one is above the law
When you see Jason Isaacs in interviews, he comes across as a genuinely great guy. It’s a testament to his skill that he can portray evil so perfectly while being nothing like that in real life.
Jason Isaacs is a wonderful actor! He was outstanding in this and in Star Trek Discovery as Captain Lorca.
He reminds me of Gary Oldman --- can play the most truly evil characters on screen --- but in real life they are sweet Teddy Bears who couldn't even squash a fly without crying
Spot on- Jason Isaacs is a champion 🍻🤙🍻🤙
Is easy to portray devil in that industry... way too many role models to choose from. Every single producer, casting director, manager, fan, friends, girlfriend, everybody betraying you, scamming you extorting you.
He reminds me of Jack Gleeson who played Joffrey from Game of Thrones. Played evil so well yet is very kind and intelligent on the other side of the fence. He even left acting after that role to continue his studies, to which I tip my hat to him for. He takes a stern and strong mind for a child actor to turn down fame and pursue their studies.
It took me a minute to remember that he also plays Lucius Molfoy. Theres just something about his voice that works so well for unlikable yet charismatic characters
His name is Jason Isaacs
He's a character actor.
Jason Isaacs, he also unknown to many voiced a well known character, Zhao from Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Check Out 'BLACK HAWK DOWN, he's on there as well, it's a military movie
And Gabriel Lorca from Star Trek 🙂
Jason Isaacs
In a well-written Star Wars movie, Jason Isaacs would have made a ruthless Imperial commander.
The Grand Inquistor.
Grand Admiral Thrawn
Young Tarkin
In star treuk his pwformance as captain Orca are astounding
Unfortunately there is no one left writing well written stories
"burn the temple, captain."
" The honor is found in the end not the means, they'll soon be forgotten" absolutely horrific
He says "This'll be forgotten." It goes with the whole bit how the victors write the history. They may be horrified by atrocious acts but if what you gain is more valuable or important, they won't care to remember it.
@@EdenOfChaos Completely right. The victor writes the history books. Makes you wonder what atrocities and lies are seen as truth throughout history.
history is written by the winners
atrocities were never just committed by ONE side
@@hithere9377 you mean the bible? and paganophobia?
@@priestkingskeptic I mean anything but the Bible is a great example. The amount of death and destruction that has occurred throughout history in its name is staggering. I would say it was a complete subversion of paganism in Europe and then the demonisation of that culture. We now look at pagans as strange but it was the preferred religion of every civilisation in history before the Abrahamic religions came along.
Tarleton the British officer Tavington was based on was nicknamed a butcher by the Patriots. There is no record of him burning a church, that part is fiction but his soldiers did massacre Patriot soldiers that had surrendered. Tarleton claimed he was trapped under his dead horse when it happened and he lost control of his men. However he made no attempt to punish his soldiers for the atrocity. He was the only British officer not invited to dine with Washington after the surrender of Yorktown. They should have had the Bufford massacre instead of the church burning in this film.
That is fair. He didn’t punish them
This is historical fiction. They chose to make Tavington a symbol of the darker side of the war. Killing children, killing helpless wounded men, burning people alive....it all happened....but was hardly all the work of one specific man.
I’ve heard different versions of this.
Imagine people rebel against today's US government and overthrow all legitimate authorities. What are they called? Terrorist, yes. That's what so called "patriots" were, and are. Read some history and google what happened to "Loyalists" in the US, how they got butchered everywhere, their land and possessions were stolen. So called "patriots" were nothing but rapist, murderer rebels. They also continued to support slavery even after it was abolished in the British Empire for a hundred years. There is no heroism behind the US's foundation and Holywood can't change it.
Wasnt he trapped because his horse was shot by the soldiers that surrendered?
Fun fact: The creators of Avatar: The Last Airbender said that Tavington was the direct inspiration when they were creating the character of Commander/Admiral Zhao. When they asked their casting agent to go out and look for someone who could pull off the role of one of their villains, she delivered on that request and got Jason Isaacs himself to voice the character. XD
That’s a great Fun Fact. General Zhao is also the same type of bad guy.
Tavington is based on a real cavarly officer called Banastre Tarleton,who fought in the US War of Independence.
Oh shit! Never realized, that’s pretty cool.
@@stefansekulic7903in real life he wasn’t a church burning with people inside psychopath. He gets his reputation from burning houses yes, and his men did execute American soldiers after a battle, which was a one time occasion and not directly his order but the men thinking he had died and were acting out revenge which doesn’t justify the massacre, but it doesn’t mean that he actively did evil deeds. The Americans in a later battle also took revenge and killed surrendering brits. Both sides sometimes did evil deeds but this war was a more respectful conflict. As they were seen as subjects of the British empire and not Americans. So technically British.
At least the captain had the guts not to shift this ignominious act to one of his subordinates. He took the torch himself with an expression of confusion, fear and disgust.
Yes, and played by Adam Baldwin (Animal Mother).
I think he could well have put out the fire after let it burn just a while.
@@Dimension2010 might off. Maybe he tried off screen when they left.
Probably if on trial he would have taken responsibility
you just know this shit prob haunted him for the rest of his life
"But you said we'd be forgiven?"
"And indeed you may . . . but that's between you and God."
*so dark*
The word "may" is the caveat. He didn't use the word "will" or even "can", as in ".. and you will be forgiven".
Darky sarcastic
Savage
Chilling af
Jason Isaacs is a genius actor, he pulls the hate right out of you , perfect villain.
If not for Jason’s age when the classic ‘Christmas movie’ came out, he would have made a very much darker and much more loathsome Hans Gruber.
You can tell the Captain does not wish to burn the church with the people inside but knows he has to obey the Col. orders, or he would be shot for insubordination, and the expression that he gives as the people are screaming while being burned alive is like, "what the hell have i done?"
Colonel Casey was always an honourable guy.
He does not wish to burn the church because those inside are his countrymen, he's portrayed as a traitor to the Continental cause
If I was in his shoes I’d have the same look on my face.
I absolutely love this actor, he embodies his roles. He is so good.
The fact that he refused to get off his high horse inside of their church should’ve let those townspeople know what type of man he was. Ruthless.
I didn't even think of that good observation that's crazy
Jason is one of my favourite actors. It's mind-blowing that he can play someone that you would hate with a passion and in real life seems like a kind, humble, down-to-Earth, and gentle soul. He is the same man that was telling an aspiring blogger to follow their dreams and be themselves whilst talked about how he used to work in fish markets in Liverpool before he got into acting. By far the best performance in the movie. He should have gotten an award.
If I were a British Soldier, I will tell Colonel William Tavington with all due respect… we are not trained to burn the house of God
Exactly
Good thing that the British actually never burned down a church with people in it on record. So it's basically fiction
Persecution still exist.
Col. Tavington: "Alright then, move them all to a house."
No temple of wood or stone is his house Read ur scripture
JASON ISAACS DID A GREAT JOB PLAYING THE ANTAGONIST IN ‘THE PATRIOT’👍👍🔥ONE OF MY FAVORITE VILLAINS OF ALL TIME IN A MOVIE
Dude walking at 3:09 is probably how I would be in that situation - just in an absolute daze, completely stunned at what’s about to happen.
Man this was so cold even animal mother has second thoughts about it
Isaacs is by far one of the most underrated actors ever
Greatest movie villain of all time. Horrible, snobbish, yet can jump off his horse and beat ass when he needs too. I remember being in a full theater, and seeing the visceral response to this scene, the crazy cheering when Gabriel shot him, and then the shit flying when Tavington was playing possum. Even when Benjamin finally gets his hands on him, Tavington dominated him, and only lost because Martin outsmarted him.
I wouldn't say greatest movie villain but he's very underrated
I wouldn’t say he completely dominated him. Mel was keeping up for the most part. Tavington did wound him and overpower him that way but definitely got outsmarted
Nobody is arguing that Tavington was a perfect killing machine.
Greatest movie villain of all time? Better than Darth Vader? A good villain, yes, but doesn't hold a candle to Anakin.
It's like most story villains, they are usually stronger and more freakishly talented than the main character, but the main character always has wit that's just a notch higher.
The villain's ultimate mistake is becoming cocky and arrogant, that usually opens the door for the main character to "outsmart."
Brilliantly acted and played by Jason Issacs, absolute classic.
I couldn't believe Tavington took two sons from Ben. Bruh was the most ruthless villain of all time.
2 sons and a daughter in law.
@@cjw41 maaann I forgot about her ! Burnt alive 🥴 Tavington had to be stopped . I never wanted a protagonist to win so badly .
but Benjamin Martin took Tavington in the end
I like how he did not change his expression after his subordinate said "there's no honor in this" Tavington literally said did I stutter?
He literally didn't say that
people are getting so stupid these days, they even forget the meanings of the most common words they say.

"The honor is found in the ends, not the means; this'll soon be forgotten." Translation: we made this scene up.
I think they made most of the movie up
Can we just admit that Dragoons' uniform is sexy af.
Personally I think they look ridiculous, but to each his own.
Jason isaacs is an awesome actor 😎
Most British people don't sound like that. Look up a guy called Danny Dyer. He's a real englishmen.
Too bad his medical drama did not last long.
@@DestinyAwaits19 Your right but Danny Dyer is nowhere near as good an actor as Jason Isaacs.
Even though this never happened, It's still pretty damn dark.
Not as we know of, but I'm damn sure in the history of the old empires and royals they commanded exactly such cruel things to gain and expand their power. Yet, western europe has the nerves to talk about russia but ain't looking at their own cruel history of wanting land.
It happened in Odessa in 2014. Google " the Odessa Massacre ".
At least he takes off his hat when he enters a building. And he says thank you. That's a proper Brrritish 🇬🇧 gentleman for you.
😂
Who do you prefer? A savage with a kind soul, or a polite gentleman with ruthless and mean spirit? Think about that…
The question is not related to you, that’s generally asking…
This never happened.
@@tiger_mou_tv516 savages do not have kind souls tho that is why they are savages just because Tavington was a gentlemen does not mean he is any less savage.
Jason Isaacs, is one incredible actor. Same time he did this he also played an American Army Ranger in "Black Hawk Down". He plays great villains, and said..."Look, I play all these tough guys and thugs and strong, complex characters. In real life, I am a cringing, neurotic Jewish mess. Can't I for once play that on stage?"
Jeremy Isaacs plays a very good Field Marshall Zukhov in The Death of Stalin. To appreciate that film you need to understand the satire.
Haha, I loved him in Black Hawk Down. "You're gonna be lickin' the latrines clean with your tongue till you can't tell the difference between sh*t and french fries..."
Louis Ironson in Angels in America. And Isaacs played him in 93-94!
Jason Isaacs made me black out in this scene from rage. When I came to, he said "This will be forgotten."
What flawless acting by all involved. Amazing.
Girls: I like bad boys!
Col. Tavington: 👋
What a weird comment .. like seriously, you see his clip and that’s what you comment? Lol
But yeah bad girls are gonna like bad boys. People are naturally attracted to those who are more than less the male and female versions of themselves when it comes to personality interests and values.
I think it’s corny calling a man or woman a bad boy or a bad girl but people typically use those terms playfully not to describe terribly bad people but decent people who are rebellious, reckless, very sexual, crude, cocky, party animals etc. I think calling evil people bad boys or bad girls is just ridiculous. Usually when someone says they like bad boys or bad girls they are not talking about actually really bad people.
@@Jackholiday1025 You need to calm down. 🤣
@@redgringrumboldt8983 But yeah I’ve noticed people are more willing to call guys bad boys than women bad Girls but with girls you hear crazy chick and mean girl a lot so yeah lol.
This was before, when Malfoys dad didn’t want to leave the Muggle world
Shut up
This man's range in acting is so freaking insane...i had no idea he was commander zhou in the last Airbender
Jason Isaacs redeemed himself in Black Hawk Down... I get he was just acting but watching films growing up it is hard to distinguish acting from real life when they do such a great job..
This is a sickening scene to add in this movie, particularly since there is no record of it happening.
It's a movie not a documentary so it's fine. it also was actually a good and cruel scene
Its happened in france, but the germans burned the church.
*captain stabs Tavington, then rides off into the sunset, roll credits, end of movie*
I watched this movie in Middle school. I love movies about history. But damn this scene hurts still.
Luckily it is just fiction.
This movie is about as historically accurate as Harry potter
Jesus if this really happened we'd still be hearing about it. Killing a whole village inside a church. We still hear about the Boston massacre and like 6 people died.
@@knockitoffhudson3470 Yes, it's almost like something the Nazis would've done...
@@SergyMilitaryRankingsnot true do your research
Great acting by Jason Isaac's but situations like this never happened in the war.
There was a Report that The SS did this somewhere on the Eastern Front! Probably where they got the Idea!
@@jamesalexander5623 The movie Come and See (1985) has a scene where this occurs.
I love the dark music that begins playing at 1:38 after he says "shut the doors." At that moment, you knew these people were not going to make it out alive.
Jason Isaacs is a fantastic actor.
I wonder whether Isaacs fully comprehended the risk he took in playing this part so brilliantly 🤬😤. Hard to separate his face from one of the most horrifying movie experiences I've ever had 😭
I think that's the goal of character actors like him. I've heard actors laugh about how they get yelled at in public because of their characters.
One of the most powerfull scenes of all time
Jason Issacs would’ve been the perfect Roose Bolton
Doesn't really matter as Roose Bolton only had few scenes.
"There is no honor in this." Pulls out pistol, shoots Tavington. The End.
Yep. They could make use of their sabers. Then it would be honorable.
Doesn’t work like that. The victims were unarmed. Look at the Gaelic footballers and their fans at Croke Park.
Jason isaacs performance in this movie is nothing short of brilliance what an acting performance in this film 🎥
Im pretty sure if this wouldve really happened, tavington would hang on a rope the next day ordered by his superiors. Some of them were helping the rebels but burning innocents alive inside a church would be deemed as an unforgivable act
If captured by the continental army yes definitely but if would have been reported back to the king at the time and mentioned that lord Cornwallis allowed it they both might get hanged or face the guillotine
The Brits did far worse.
Wishful thinking, the truth is war at that time was far more brutal that you could possibly imagine
@@spazemfathemcazemmeleggymi272 they starved an entire race of people and killed countless in India.
@@alecbowman7738 Not in that war. And the revolutionaries committed their own share of war crimes - but neither side did anything like burning down a church full of civilians.
Can't believe I've watched this when I was 5 back in 2000s. It's the first tragic movie I've watched but it opened my eyes about history and the cruelty of the world. And I've watched a lot of movies throughout the years but this still remains one of my favorites.
You realize this never happened lmao
@@SergyMilitaryRankings I know. It's a dramatized depiction of historical events. But you have to understand, as a 5 year old, seeing this kinds of stuff impacts you a lot. As I said this also sparked my fascination with history.
@@intotheunknown21 No, it's completely made up
@@kiwishamoo6494 Sure. Buddy. And for anyone else who will comment arguing how this movie is a completely fabricated work, you guys are missing the point of my comment in the first place.
I don't argue anything about the factfulness of this movie. I'm just a fan of the era and the portrayal in the movie. I don't give shit if it's true or not in the smallest of details. I'm not even an american nor british so as much as I'm concerned I don't really give a f*ck what exactly happened in your country.
I don't go around saying marvel movies and superheroes are silly and unrealistic just because people seem to like them a lot. Get a life. Jeez.
It may have been inspired by a Nazi atrocity committed against French civilians in 1944. However this would never have happened in the Revolutionary War. Important to remember this is a pro-American film. In real life the character played by Mel Gibson committed many atrocities against the Cherokee (as well as being a major slaveowner - a detail that is changed in the film!).
"This will be forgotten." Sad and true at the same time.
You'd be surprised at how easy it is to forget things that never happened
This scene caused a significant amount of disgust and dismay when the movie was shown in the UK. British movie critics claimed it put the British Army in the same ranks as the Nazis. The British command considered the local residents as citizens of the British Empire and to be afforded due process for crimes committed.
"Burn the church, Captain."
My response would have been "With all due respect, sir, I'm a soldier, not a butcher. Get someone else to do your devil's work."
And then you would have been shot, which wouldn't have been a bad thing really. I'd rather be shot myself than live the rest of my life knowing I burnt a church full of civilians.
The normal thing a captain should have done in this case is is to order his men to burn the church, as an gentleman he could not commit such a hard labour as throwing a torch 😂
Great voice that fits a villain character
Tavington's entry on horseback into the church makes this scene spectacular... to whoever put that in the script... my respects
The British were not into Christian BBQ, this is historically incorrect.
Jason Isaacs should’ve been Green Goblin. He resembles Norman Osborn from the comics.
As much shit as this movie catches, you can still see strands of Braveheart and greatness in it. Still one of my favorite war movies of all time. Commanded me to know who Jason Isaacs is.
Looking back, what a great character by Jason Isaacs as Tavington (the soldier/villain)
Damn, I was so much afraid of Sir Tavington during the whole film!
Such a beautiful church
that's an ugly-ass church. also, this never happened.
He's so cruel but I can forgive that because he's so gorgeous. His eyes are so magnetic that you can't look away if you tried
The uniform helps too.
What in the love-child of Ted Bundy and Jeremy Meeks have I just read 😅
Heart breake scenes 💔💔💔💔
18TH CENTURY FASHION🥰
This is a big deal. Not only did this never happened, it's extremely wrong from the director to depict British soldiers as such just to overcome his lack of intellectual creativity to get us to cheer on the rebels. It's historical revisionism for the worst
The British did this in Ireland so not hard to believe it happened in America
@@darcy410 Regardless of any atrocities the English committed in Ireland, the point is this is complete fiction and never happened. Had it done it probably would’ve completely soured Anglo-American relations for the next 200 years. Also if you are looking for incidents of the English doing this sort of thing in Ireland you probably have to go back to the 1640s where there was a lot of brutality on both sides.
Edited to say the Americans were Protestant settler colonists, so the British regarded them as “their own” in a way they would never regard the Catholic Irish. Which is why this massacre never took place .
@@darcy410
I somehow doubt it being as how
the American colonies were pretty
much100% protestant at this time
British wanted to rule America but it didn’t go their way
@@Mattessj
It kinda did
Who do you think the WASPS are?
I love the detail of Tavington removing his hat after riding into the church with his horse. It's a small bit of detail, but it's a strong characterization point. It shows that he tries to be polite as is expected from a British officer at that time, but actually he doesn't give a fuck as the psychopath he is.
So this is the real reason why the dark lord Voldemort choose him for his clan
Animal Mother has a soul in the end..
Me on my way to Congress. Swap the British accent to "YE-HAWW!!"
Jason Isaacs is a great actor.
He is deliciously evil in "Brotherhood", an older Showtime series. He's just so cool!
A lot of Brits were mad with this scene. Not only did this never happen but they didn’t like being compared to things the Nazis did. Like in the movie Come and See which is about the German Occupation of Belarus. The Nazis did something just like this scene and stuff like that happened all over the eastern front but in the American Revolutionary War nopee
British have done many bad things. Torture, hanging, burning, killing, raping etc
@@Orthodox1821 Im sure they did but at that level in the American Revolution, I’m not too sure about that
@@josecano9210 me too, exactly
Brits are burning churches , that's nothing new .
ALL wars have had their share of one or two commanders, captains, or other actors that have been butchers, moreso than the general butchery and carnage that is warfare, period. Tavington is based on a high-ranking member of the British army in the American Revolution who was known for his exceptionally brutal and savage tactics which greatly bent and even broke in many cases the rules and protocols of warfare at the time. Nothing is arbitrary or made up for no cause at all.
Ok ok it may be extremely inaccurate historically but it’s still a great movie.
Evil comprehends one language:action. And respects one word: force!
Isaacs acting like a monster, brilliant actor
Animal Mother is more concerned with treason in this war than with PT or Freedom.

If Captain Wilkins is gonna get his balls blown off for a word, his word is "poontang".
@@seanoreilly40what’s your point?

I woulda been like “WORLD STAR!” Once the church caught on fire
Why is it that two of the worst examples of historical revisionism in western cinema, The Patriot and Braveheart, are both blockbuster hits? Moreover, why are they both starring Mel Gibson and share an almost identical plot?
Because they view the audiences as hyperconsumerist simpletons.A historically accurate depiction of the American Revolutionary War or the Wallace Rebellion would be more moraly grey even than Game of Thrones.And they don't deem us worthy of understanding complexity.And the worst thing is...they are right.
Americunts are the reason

Most of them would have British accents,propably according to the region of Britain the settlers came from.

Coldest line in film history in my opinion.
and if you thought what Colonel Stuart did to that one plane in Die Hard 2 was horrible...it still is but this is pretty bad too
I hate how there's no resolution to Captain Wilkins's arc. Was he killed in the battle? Did he flee to England? Did he confess about the Church burning? Did he try to run away during the battle?
I think in the move I’ve seen him fight in the final battle, it doesn’t show him getting killed in that battle.
Well, not exactly the final battle, but the long battle.
He's killed in the scene almost sttaight after by Gabriel/Ledger
America today would never fight back
Allegedly this part of the movie is inspired by the Oradour-sur-Glane massacre in France in 1944, when soldiers of the 2nd SS Panzer-Division 'Das Reich' locked the women and children inside the local Church, set it on fire and shot those who tried to escape trough the windows.
The men were placed in barns and shot aswell, and most of the village was torched to the ground.
Anyone else get the impression Mel Gibson doesn't like the British? Between The Patriot and Braveheart, they basically made the English into irredeemable villains.
Hes an american who grew up in Australia, who also has irish routes, so yeah.
Not that surprising
Also you don't built tha largest ever empire by being a pacifist.
Jason Isaacs acting for Hitler
When you feel spiritually locked
This movie should be renamed the Royalist because of how good this actor is
Pretty sure British soldiers would not burn civilian colonists of men, women, and children to death like that. This depiction is fictional however...
...it is based on the 1944 massacre at the French village of Oradour Sur Glane by Waffen SS troops. They indeed rounded up civilans into a church and burned it to the ground after brutal killings of occupying soldiers that took place in the area a few says earlier.
SS Troops doing this... yes, they were serial killers, truly the real demons that all humans are capable becoming when they allow themselves to be consumed by idiocy.
But yeah, I don't recall any event where any western European did this, especially in a church.
However, there were some horrific things done during the reformation by both Catholics and Protestants alike, but never heard of them actually burning people alive in the churches or cathedrals. Usually they did that outside and with the option of not being put to death and going free so long as they converted.
And the worship buildings were usually just converted. Not always though. Henry VIII began the dissolution of the monasteries many were converted to other functions. And some sold and just fell into disrepair.
This is why Malfoy hates muggles.
2:04 Marshal Zhukov and Animal Mother argue over burning of a church
Fun fact: this scene wasnt in the script. Jason Isaac had some extras burned to death between takes and Emmerich decided to include it in the movie.
It's unfortunate that there were no windows for them to break out of. Oh ...
They probably would've been shot if they did try to get out. If I was trapped in that situation, I would've busted out of there.
The front door that they're banging on opens inwards, identified by the top lock handle.
They literally showed footage of them closing the shutters on the windows
@@lukeh2440 Pretty sure I could easily kick through a shutter. They might have shot people trying to escape, but the movie doesn't even show them trying.
