Watch Apocalypto For Free

One of my all time favorites.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

No doubt, an amazing movie directed by the one and only Mel Gibson. Starting from the story to the acting to cinematography, everything is very realistic and top notch which makes this movie a must watch for all film enthusiasts. Loved the movie and I have watched it more than 5 times - Sujan Azad Parikh.

Pretty well done adventure with a story that can almost be believed. There are quite a few things that I don't believe are accurate but are holding on because they don't impede the story. A story of survival. The first part with the taking of prisoners reminded me of the Mohawks. They were like that.

It's a shame some movies aren't judged simply on their own merit, if that were the case, I believe this movie would be regarded much differently. This is a masterpiece, original, and a well-directed epic piece of work. Although it does receive a high IMDB rating of 7.8, it most certainly should have been more well-received and better represented at the Academy Awards and all other awards for that year. I am NOT a Mel Gibson sympathizer and am not aligned with his political views or his anti-Semitic leanings, both of which I believe negatively impacted this movie's chances at the Academy Awards. This film should have been nominated for more than just the three nominal awards it did receive. In addition to those three, it most certainly should have been nominated for Best Movie, Best Director, and Best Editing while the omission of any acting nominations is also conspicuous. Raoul Trujillo, Gerardo Taracena, and Rudy Youngblood all gave absolutely top notch performances, most noticeably Trujillo and Taracena whose menacing and antagonistic characters were extremely believable and convincing.

This is a movie that doesn't know what it is other than a display of gratuitous violence scene after scene...Mel Gibson's Braveheart was violent but at least we all understood where it was going and why it was made like that. This Apocalypto thing however isn't nothing of the sort, and at the end of the movie we can't even understand why it is named Apocalypto.It fails to teach us anything other than there was violence in an ancient civilization; it tries to portray one of the most advanced civilizations in its time as just barbaric and sadistic; it fails to explain to us why things happened the way it did; and last but not the least the myriad of secondary stories are left incomplete and it is our job to figure it out (if we bother).This was a missed opportunity to make something about a rich civilization that deserved to be portrayed in all its magnificence... As it is, this movie could have been done about any other civilization in the world as it just portrays the worst aspect of them all - violence.Violence for the sake of violence doesn't make a good story let alone a good movie about it. This is definitely not worth watching; just a waste of time...
