I was highly disappointed by it.


I was expecting something else. Something deeper. Maybe a crazy theorized look into what happened with the mayans.



Instead it was like a stereotypical B movie. Like a big budget ed wood flick.
Fair enough. :obama:


Was it stereotypical? Or really an exact depiction of how life really was then? But i do agree i wish it would have gave us an idea of what happened to the Mayans.

It sparked a pretty big controversy when it came out.


Many felt it depicted them as savages and used the human sacrificies more associated with aztecs. Plus the ominous ending with the europeans coming in was seen as typical white washing like "dirty savages needing to be saved."


I don't know i havent seen it since the theatrr. I may give it another chance. I just remember being so excited for it and i purposely had read almost nothing about it going in.



Maybe ill like it more now.




I do think mel gibson had a very promising career as a film maker. Too bad hes such a scum bag lol.

I honestly dont remember what was being said about the movie. But i will go & look up what was being said. :ehh:


I agree Mel Gibson could have been one of the better film makers. But he decided to go turn into a crazy cac instead. :dead:
