An amazing story about the pre-European Americas... A credible taste of what life might have looked like in one of the greatest civilizations in the world. It makes one wonder, if both societies would never had come into contact, how th eworld would look like today...a more technological society in Europa? a community more in sync. with nature here in the Americas (still some technology and quite possibly warring tribes, but still more respectuful and in harmony with their surroundings). Inspiring moview, indeed. Cheers, k.

Mel is an absolute genius and anyone who says he is not can only be a complete idiot. I am overwhelmed with his talent ..... there is not a director out there who can compete with him! I was on the edge of my seat through the WHOLE movie ....,. I will watch it again!

Mel Gibsoon should have a serious head examination...being a talented performer and director does not excuse what he accomplishes with these talents. This film contains a slew of historical falsehoods and enough gore to fill several episodes of CSI.

Mel Gibson deserves the all time humanitarian award, because if you forget history - YOU WILL REPEAT HISTORY.We all have blood on our hands.

If you can`t face truth in the face, don`t see this film. It tells the true story of how the Mayan civilisation (like many others, including those of Europe at one time) was sophisticated but corrupt. I thought that the contrast was not with Christianity (which does not appear until the end) but with the `noble savages` of the jungle, who were cast as beneficent compared to the Mayans. Very graphic, though. Typical of Gibson`s visceral style and his liking for gore and evil characters--from Mad Max on.

This was a superb film!! The amazing thing is this is an actual depiction of how these people once lived and that nobody else was smart enough to make a movie like it before. 5 stars.

Incredible. Just got back and this movie completely blew me away. The story, the acting, the directing, everything was top notch. A definite 5 star film that will go down in history as a classic. I`m not a fan of Mel Gibson (before or after the "incident") but I have to hand it to him. He knows what he`s doing. Go see this in theatre, you`ll definitely want to see it on the big screen. Two thumbs up!

Brillant! A must see. How can someone even remotely say it`s racially discrimation? Come on! Tribes hunted one another and to this day, we see ethnic cleansings. Over the past decade we have witnessed an increase in genocidal attacks and a global escalation of intolerance and violence. Mass killings, ethnic "cleansings," and assaults on humanity. This movie dipicts what life was accurately like during those times.

Racial descrimination? On the contrary, Mel Gibson shows the world about the wonderful Mayan Culture that once existed! He opens the eyes to people to look into history and realize that the world changes. Movie is a must see!

Great movie! Mel Gibson does it again! He is the best director of this era, someone who knows the public is intelligent enough and deserves more than your typical Hollywood, commercial movie. Must see!

Well done action movie that includes a great chase scene that thankfully does not include a police chase and 50 car crashes.Set in pre Columbus South america and totally done with subtitles.It is a tale one mans fight against a civilization in decline. My only concern was...What point was Mel trying to make?No significant meaning and a movie that nobody will be talking about in a few months at Oscar time. Ending of the movie is rather weak...too convenient for my tastes...

This is a great movie if the audience has an open mind to enjoy the non-typical story set-up. To the person who said this movie was racially discriminating, guess what, Mayan civilization really did have live human sacrafices, those stair temples wernt there just to look pretty, they also ate the bodies not just toss them away like in the movie. 5 Star movie for people with a strong stomach and for people who like something different

Waste of time. Very slow. Action was weak.

Absolutely Stunning... Brilliant cinemetography... true depiction of brutality and savagery... Mel Gibson at his BEST... No one could have done a better job... I loved this film!!! A MUST-SEE!!! (People who are here to comment on the movie should stick to the task, and not talk about Gibson`s racial slurs... Please, do us all a favor)

Apparently,a true piece of history is a little hard for ADHD viewers to comprehend. Don`t dispare, there are "Meds" available or better yet X BOX. In reality,history was not always pretty and can not be summed up in a 90 minute movie of the week.Gibson has captured a slice of time when a whole society was going through a horrific transition. Not unlike today, the time lacked compassion and the understanding towards others. The message delivered here will haunt you for ever.The cinemetography is breathtaking.Violent,yet not gratuitious.Well developed believeable characters.Go and be educated, not just entertained.

I think Mel Gibson has great insight into whatever he does. I felt like I was taken back in time, the realism was overwhelming. The gore detail was necessary to shock the audience into believing the scene. Now a days, we are so oblivious to the murders and killing scenes in other movies, that nothing seems to phase us. However, this one stood out just because it conveyed a possible way of life back a few centuries. The will to survive is uncanny in this movie, the supernatural events seem to lead the viewer to the conclusion. The plot was great, so were the actors, they were out of this world. Henry

Amazing movie, Gibson delivers once again. Portraying a civilization before a collapse (greed for power, money, etc.)a must see for the open minded thinkers

marvelous mel againnnnnnnnnnnnn

User review rating: 0 December 09, 2006

Okay story, great scenery. Typical action film. Lots of gore. Will offend some, interest others and bore many more. I liked it. Not a film for the faint of heart and for those who want a typical storybook ending they will not be disappointed.

Great movie, very historically correct anyone who says they didn`t like it probably not into history/Mel Gibson. 5 stars.

Wow....how does one go about getting ones money back...there`s 135 minutes of my life i have to sue Mel Gibson to get back. All i can say is: Apocalcrapo

User review rating: 0 December 09, 2006

Great movie, there was action from the beginning to end, however it was not as gory as the reviewers said.

User review rating: 0 December 09, 2006

This movie wasn`t great, but it was entertaining. It was also a little unnecessarily gory at times, although there were some amazing visuals of ancient Mayan civilization.

Pretty fantastic movie. I hope people aren`t too turned off by Gibson`s drunken slurs and just give the movie a chance.

User review rating: 0 December 08, 2006

Great movie. But anything that Mel direct is great.

The Marketplace scene where the `volunteer` sacrifices took place seriously shook me up. Was done so well as to really help you see the likeness of today`s world and it`s potential parallels to extinction (fighting over dropped money, etc). Have you ever voluntarily worked overtime and not get paid?
