A welcome change of pace for us who feel Hollywood keeps making the same picture over and over again. The first part of this film is the most unconventional but also hard to endure as only bad things seem to happen to the characters but once Act II arrives and the chase begins, grab on !. I can't remmember the last time a film had my stomach in knotts like this one. Some people here in Mexico have complained about the film's historical accuracy since by the time the Spanish arrived in America, the Mayan civilization had already been taken over by other groups. In any case, Hollywood films are not the best way to learn about history. When Braveheart came out over 10 years ago I remmember a friend telling me: "who would have thought Mel Gibson was a real director", 2 films later he keeps surprising me with his directing skills. It's too bad the public has let themselves be convinced by the media that he's the most evil person to ever come out of Hollywood which is absurd. I guess they feel the more they discredit him the more they discredit "The Passion of the Christ".Read full review
A great story which shows the effects of the blood thirsty Mayan civilization on other indigenous tribes. The main character, Jaguar Paw, does whatever it takes to get back to his pregnant wife and young son. The chase for Jaguar Paw is thrilling and riveting. Rudy Youngblood does a great job in that role. In fact, I thought, the entire casting was superb. The jungle setting has been beautifully captured on film. As for the violence, it is a realistic representation of what is known to have actually occurred. It is nothing compared to some other recent hit movies. The fact that this film uses their original language made it more realistic and the subtitles are really no bother. I enjoyed this movie so much I watched it twice and I would see it again. In my opinion the story, acting and cinematography are all excellent.Read full review

El pasado 1 de junio compré la película en bluray “Apocalypto”, al dia de hoy 5 de julio no me ha llegado (35 días); regularmente mis compras por e-bay en USA demoran 14 días desde que realizo el pago, me comunique con el vendedor por correo electrónico y no me contestó, entonces abrí una disputa en PAYPAL, fue cuando tuvimos comunicación, y le manifesté mi situación, se limitó a darme un número de registro para su rastreo y me deseo buena suerte; he tratado de localizar el producto en el servicio postal Mexicano sin éxito, me manifiestan que no tienen ese número registrado y que es posible que se haya quedado en la aduana o se haya perdido, le pedí al vendedor que me mandara vía E-mail copia del registro con mi orden , mi nombre y dirección, con ello cancelo la disputa, y asumo que no es culpa de el , que el articulo no me haya llegado; sin embargo últimamente no me ha contestado y elevaré mi reclamación para que PAYPAL determine esta situación, por lo pronto no lo calificaré para no afectar su reputación, esperando que el tampoco lo haga. Esta situación es la primera vez que me sucede, empiezo a comprar con ustedes desde hace 3 meses aproximadamente, y desde hace 3 años a algunas por Internet a otras empresas y personas, con ustedes estoy muy satisfecho y seguro, salvo por la situación antes comentada, considero importante que para quienes realizan compras de otro país, es necesario establecer medidas que garanticen que el articulo comprado llegue a su destinatario (aunque cueste un poco mas). Gracias por permitirme compartir este momento. Lic. Enrique Alvarado México D.F. 5 de julio 2007Read full review
