There are a couple of old threads about the movie, too, if you do a search.

They might have some spoilers in them though.

He didn't mention The Jews once. Interesting. He did mention ancient blood cults, which I always like.

I thought it was a steaming chunk of crap. Just violence and melodrama for 3 hours like every Mel Gibson movie.

But I seem to be in the minority here so maybe everyone enjoys it but me.

I thought there was definitely a point, huge point actually, that his other movies don't have. I think the violence was actually tasteful.

I thought it was great. If the critics didn't know it was a Mel Gibson film the reviews would have been much better.

I think its racist, it portrays the mayans as evil, and they were anything but evil

You completely missed the point of the movie.

I thought it was an absolute clusterfuck on a scale that only the Gibson could produce.

I'm not going to discuss what I felt the point was since I don't want people who are reading this thread in order to decide whether or not to watch it won't come across spoilers.
