Apocalypto (2006)

Happy Easter everyone ! So to celebrate such a day I decided to review a movie for the whole family. And is there anything better than Indians (probably Mayan ) killing other Indians ? Mel Gibson made this one, congratulations to him, looks beautiful , and what is the greatest fact about this film, is that every single Indian is an actual Indian. Nothing but the truth .And that really helps build up that documentary feel, and it looks realistic as hell, even thou some indians can't act.Can say nothing bad for the script, intriguing and pulling you in all the way. But yes, sometimes, when instead of something like "How are you" they have to say " what is your body feeling like, at now, my friend of brave ", I tend to say "bull sheep (not shit, shit is a bad word) ". Yes, that makes them look more Indian , but sometimes that's just irritating. As for the dialogues, and strong monologues, Apocalypto has it nailed. They are as smart and as deep as they are funny. Witch is a hard-to-get combo for everyone. One thing that really keeps you going throughout the movie is the tension. As if they could not take a crap without you thinking "will he actually take that crap ?" . And that is great , superb, fantastic and chaining you right into this slaughter. Also, there is a girl, and I think She is the key stone here. She is so creepy , so scary, so devil-made child, that she makes he short scene the main. That would be all, happy holiday , and if you're thinking of watching this, enjoy the blue mans group, running but-naked.
