Apocalypto Movie Review by Ben (11/29/2007)

This was one of the most beautiful and exciting movies I have seen in a long time. If you are a fan of Beowulf, 300, or The Lord of the Rings, then this movie should definitely be on your list of must-sees.

Apocalypto Movie Review by Max (7/2/2007)

Before going to see this movie I thought for weeks as to whether I should support Mel Gibson or not. I don't know whether or not Mel Gibson is actually an anti-semite or is guilty of many of the things he is accused of such as alcoholism.

Apocalypto Movie Review by Tim (5/29/2007)

Apocalypto is a nice change to the normal films that have been coming out for the last 15 months. We use to have several films like Dances With Wolves or Tears of the Sun that show what damage can be done to cultures.

Mel Gibson co-wrote and directed this epic about Indians in the Mayan dynasty being captured and...
