Mel Gibson's "Braveheart" has topped a list of history's worst Oscar winners. It has been named - and shamed - alongside "A Beautiful Mind", "Rocky" and "Around the World in 80 Days".

The list of worst films that had in the past won Best Film Awards was recently published by movie magazine Empire, just before the 77th Academy Awards, reported Ananova.

"Braveheart", which won the award in 1995, is "Mel Gibson's all-time worst Best Picture," the magazine said.

"Randall Wallace (the writer) might have merited praise for making 14th-century history relevant to audiences who thought King Edward was a potato or a cigar, but his dialogue has all the thudding subtlety of a parody."

"A Beautiful Mind", featuring Russell Crowe as the mathematician John Nash, came second for its "galling" win in 2002.

The "tawdry circus spectacle" of 1952 movie "The Greatest Show On Earth" ranked third and the "revisionist nonsense" of 1995 winner.

"Forrest Gump" (1994), starring Tom Hanks as a man who has accidental meetings with important events in the US, was fifth and Sylvester Stallone's "Rocky"(1977), was ninth.
