- Ichigo Kurusaki1. mai 2025Extremely well made movie one of my favorites 🖤
- Kelly Sanchez20. mars 2025I love this movie
- carlijustice7. mars 2026A modern epic! A fantastically creepy look into human culture in an area and during a past that most of us completely unfamiliar with. Well done! Gritty, violent, and visually stunning. Not a family friendly watch, but worth it.
- Deckardlives21. februar 2026Awesome film
- witty youngman20. august 2025I remember when this came out and all the hype, thinking, oh I have to see this one. I just never came around to it until 2025. Gruesome at points, excessive, but the big picture story was worth sticking to finish.
- victor forzani13. januar 2026One of the best movie of 2006 that came out base on history and the savage world of the Maya people and their way of survival, Very brutal and their way of life.
- Paul Walsh13. februar 2026Pure spectacle. The scenes in the city are terrifying and the movie blazes along quite quickly despite its length.
- Aaron12. april 2025Well put together movie. Interesting plot kept me reading for more. It’s supposedly a Mayan audio. So need subtitles any way you go. Mel Gibson movie.
- Nicholas Florio2. desember 2025One of my favorite movies and certainly one of Mel Gibson's shining accomplishments. Fantastic from start to finish and very accurate historically.
- Kevin Ward2. juli 2025I have been on vacation on the Maya Riviera for a week which included a visit to Chichen Itza. Amazing vacation, highly recommend. Inspired me to rewatch Mel Gibson’s Apocalypto. It’s still an pretty incredible film, even if it didn’t quite hold up as well as I thought it would. Starting with the good, I loved the use Yucatec Maya language. I wish more films had the courage to film in authentic languages even when they know their audience doesn’t speak it. Prey, for example, could have been even better if it was filmed with Comanche dialogue (and not just in English with a Comanche dub option). Native American actors and that it was shot on location in Mexico, give the film an incredibly authentic feel. The parts that didn’t hold up as well as I remember are most of the opening 25 minutes or so, that establishes Jaguar Paw and his fellow villagers. There’s lots of sexual jokes that come off as very juvenile. Most of the relationships depicted feel like western stereotypes ported over onto a Maya story. One villager, for example, has an overbearing mother-in-law demanding he produce some grand children, which is played as a joke. There was actually very little from the opening that I liked all that much. Once the ransacking of Jaguar Paw’s village happens though, it’s an incredible and cinematic journey that culminates in essentially a epic chase sequence seeing the hostile Maya tribe chasing Jaguar Paw all the way back to his village. And I loved how a Jaguar and a snake played a role in assisting Jaguar Paw’s escape and how some of his captors saw that as a bad omen. There’s clearly inaccuracies in it’s depiction of the Maya culture, too, though. One pivotal scene hinges on the Jaguar Paw’s captors being surprised when solar eclipse occurs and blots out the Sun. But we know the Mayans to be some of the most advanced astronomers the world has ever seen, having erected Chichen Itza with specific dimensions and positioning to create shadows indicating the equinoxes. They had accurately predicted solar eclipses hundreds of years into the future. The idea that they wouldn’t have known that a solar eclipse was happening this day is preposterous. That’s the one that stuck out to me, though I’m sure there are plenty more. I was glad I had a good excuse to rewatch this film finally. It had been at least 15 years since I had seen it and it was nice to go into it with some fresh context about the Maya culture.
