The Mel Gibson movie Apocalypto : The graphic story about the downfall of the mayan people. It is
also the story of one mans struggle to survive in order to save his pregnant wife and young son!
Hellacious Movies Movie Review : Bar None! Apocalypto is the Best Movie that was ever made!
A Breathe Taking movie that warrants multiple viewings to savor the true genius of this non stop
action adventure! The storyline is never sacrificed for the sake of action, for the action is an integral
part in the telling of this story! The Cinematography is absolutely stunning! An incredible experience
you will not soon forget! A haunting tale of love, hope and survival!
While the movie is somewhat violent in nature, it was neccessary in order for the story to be told!
The subject of the film being that of mayan indian tribes being captured for the sake of being sacrificed
to the sun gods could hardly be told without being brutally honest about this aspect of mayan history!
There is however so much more to this movie than just fast paced action and violence!
It is a love story unlike anything you have ever seen before on the silver screen!
Mel Gibson is without a doubt one of the greatest storytellers and directors of our time!
