Apocalypto (2006)
8/10
Should have been called "The Passion of the Mayan-Heart."

Seriously... Mel Gibson rules. Once again, he lays it all on the line with pure in-your-face insanity. His films emanate a visceral and raw intensity, and he turns violence into an art form. Who else has the balls to shoot a 45-minute chase scene on foot? But what do we see here that is not essentially in his last 2 features?? Rape? No... Public executions? No... Mass killings/ buckets of blood? No... Decapitated heads? No... OK, about a dozen decapitated heads rolling down pyramid steps followed by a game of human 'big buck-hunter'? I'll give him that.
