Apocalypto…
Mel Gibson seems to really know how to make his audiences feel eerie every time they watch his films…in the passion of christ, he showed how badly Christ was tortured and now in apocalypto he has done it once again but this time with the ancient Mayan civilization…I was rather surprised he wanted to make a movie like this but it was rather good…Although the dialogue is in some ancient language, Mayan is im not mistaken, the movie is still very easy to follow even without the help of subtitles…Its about a tribe that gets wiped out and prisoners taken by another tribe…and the hero escapes to save his family…but i loved the battle scenes and the gore and violence…i mean this could have been how the civilizations might have been that time…the acting was ok in a sense that they were all mostly b-grade actors and actresses…the directing was good and so was the editing and cinematography…
i dont think this film will be released in Malaysia but if u do get a chance to watch it please do so…Not the best of films to watch if u dont like violence and gore…a bit of nudity though as the cast are portrayed in ancient costumes and u guys should know how ancient costumes look like…
i think i would give this film a 7 out of 10…
