Who cares that Mel Gibson directed it? I think it's beautifully shot, has great atmospheric sound design, and it supplies a nice dose of blood porn. Plus, I've always been obsessed with the Aztecs and the Maya peoples, and while it's not really a particularly historically accurate portrayal of Maya civilization, it's the only film I've seen that attempts to let you into that world. I wish there was a whole genre dedicated to those two different periods. Then there could be more Apocalyptos, but without the boring second half chase sequence. I only really liked the cruel slaughtering of Jaguar Paw's tribe, and the brilliantly creepy religious fervor leading up to the human sacrifice section. A lot of that for a few hours (in fact, the temple section could have been twice as long for me), with lots of gasping and weird droney soundtrack action would have been wonderful. Oh, and the latest National Geographic issue on the Mayans was rubbish. :-( |

I've had enough grape juice to give it a shot. I think me singing through a wrongly-set up autotune with some world percussion and Enya style oohs would do the trick. Do you like evaporated milk? I used to like it with egg custard tarts. But then I discovered that double cream was better for me. |

Peter Weller hosted a killer episode of Engineering an Empire about the Mayans, I watched it last night. He went deep into Pacal's tomb and came to this HUGE triangular stone door that looked like it was from fucking Stargate or something. |
