In Apocalypto, Mel Gibson brought to life the Mayan civilization and used it as his setting. Novel enough in itself. Like The Passion of The Christ, he uses an archaic language. In this case, Mayan. Like the previous movie there are English subtitles. And that’s where the similarities end. Make no mistake: This is purely an action movie. And you get loads of gripping, adrenaline-pumping action especially during the long, extended climax where the escaped protagonist was being hunted by his former captors as he makes his way back to his village to rescue his family. Good enough for an action fix.
Rating: 3/5
