Great Movie Motivational Speeches
Here is a collection of motivational talks from the movies. From the goose bump inducing to the comedic.
Let’s start with what probably will be the one that comes to mind for most: The Braveheart Freedom speech by William Wallace (Mel Gibson) to his ragtag bunch of warriors.
In a similar vein but from a lesser known movie we have Liam Neeson delivering a civil unrest inducing speech from the movie about the Irish revolutionary, Michael Collins.
Next up, a little more cynical but never the less an inspiring talk for the sleazy salesmen as delivered by Alec Baldwin in Glengarry Glen Ross
Keeping in the business arena, we have Ben Affleck delivering a sobering speech to the new trainee brokers in Boiler Room.
The opening speech from Patton is a piss and vinegar talk to the troops.
Continuing the war theme but from the Shakespearean, Here is Kenneth Brannagh delivering the Henry V speech to the troops.
Sports movies are knee deep in motivational speeches, Lets start with Al Pacinos’ locker room speech to his team in need of healin’
Denzel Washington delivers call to unite to his team in Remember the Titans
On a lighter note Bluto (John Belushi) from Animal House had to motivate his frat house … here is how he did it with an important history lesson too.

I like Jeff Daniels’ ‘Today is our Independence Day’ speech to his troops about to take on the aliens – from the movie of the same name.
