I was around 8-9 yrs old when i first watched this film with my parents. Im turning 24 now, and still think that this is one of the BEST movies I've watched. Truly a masterpiece.

I can't understand why this movie is not more appreciated. It is an absolute masterpiece.

It's 2020 and still this movie makes my top 5 favorite movies of all time. So underrated.

This is one if the best movies I have ever seen! It's an absolute masterpiece. I keep re-watching it from time to time and am always amazed at the beauty of direction and acting. Mel is a genius! We need more films like this.

Mel Gibson didn't force Hollywood stars into this passion project and still made a masterpiece. Haters gonna hate.

Absolutely one of the top 3 most underrated films of the last decade...

A masterful all-time favorite. The cultures, religions and settings were unfamiliar, there was nothing I could latch onto-except, oh, the sheer humanity of these characters…It’s riveting, the actors are phenomenal, and I was surprised by the scope of Gibson’s direction. An A-list movie if you love movies and great storytelling.

30 years old now and watched this at 15 with my mother. Her and I were both on the edge of our seats yelling at the TV. Still one of my favorite movies of all time and had very little dialog.

"Maybe the best movie I've seen in 25 years" - Robert Duvall "I think it's a masterpiece. It was perhaps the best film of that year. I think it was the best artistic film of that year" - Quentin Tarantino "Many pictures today don't go into troubling areas like this, the importance of violence in the perpetuation of what's known as civilization. I admire Apocalypto for its frankness, but also for the power and artistry of the filmmaking" - Martin Scorsese "I was totally caught off guard. It's arguably the best movie I've seen in years. I was blown away" - Edward James Olmos

First watched it in 2007 (came out in 2006) now it's 2016 and this film is still one of the best in my opinion.

This movie is an absolute masterpiece. Mel Gibson is a genius. The depth and meaning hidden just beneath the surface throughout this journey is something to behold.

One of the most powerful films I have ever seen. The visuals, the story. It evokes incredible emotions and feelings. This film will not disappear in the timeline. 🖤🖤🖤

One word... UNDERRATED.

I discovered „Apocalypto“ years ago accidentally and I remember how it blowed me away for 2hours and 18 minutes!! Breathtaking and genius work of incredibly talented Mr. Gibson . Everyone should see this amazing movie .

Total masterpiece ! One of my favorite movie . Not one famous actor , speak in Mayan the whole time . And you don’t even réalise it . Timeless movie . Can watch it once again , already saw it like 30 times .

I remember watching this when I was like seven. The thought of finding this movie now that I’m way older crossed my mind. All I remembered was that they were perhaps Mayan/Aztec people...I had remembered someone being painted blue and being ripped apart and someone had to escape. From the memories I remembered of this movie, I had to find it again. Now here I am, I remembered and am going to rewatch the movie.

"Apocalypto" is a masterpiece. I've -bought the bootlegged dvd- borrowed the dvd from my aunt which lives in US and because I couldn't find the subtitles in its menu I've honestly thought it's a movie played in Mayan only (like "The Passion of the Christ" played entirely in Old Aramaic). I've watched it and I liked it so much that when my wife came home I've played the movie for a second time and while watching it I was translating to her, step by step what was my interpretation of their dialogue in Mayan. Anyways, weeks later, by accident I've found the subtitles hidden by mistake in a submenu and when I've played it I was shocked to discover that my explanations were spot on, almost 100%. The whole movie is perfect; the way it was directed, the scenes, the script, the characters and their flawless act, everything is so beautifully put together that you can watch it with no subtitles at all. Try it. This is a work of a genius. PS Later on I've bought a legit dvd for my good movies collection. It deserves this statute

They should make more movies about Mesoamerica. For the Aztecs as well as the Incans. We have all these movies about the North American Indigenous peoples so why not MesoAmerica?

This film never gets old, I just watched it again today and I get the same feeling I did the first time I saw it. Brutal,sad, visually stunning! Every scene is a masterpiece

This has to be one of the greatest films ever!! Great production Great actors Great make-up Best scenes Everything is on point

This trailer does not justify how great this movie is! I'm not even a fan of action movies, and I became very fond of this movie. Highly recommend it!

I can't believe this movie is 10 years old already. The first time I saw it in the theater it just utterly and totally blew my freakin mind. I never seen ANY movie like this in my life, talk about immersion, Mel Gibson is beyond a genius and it really pissed me off how his career was destroyed. Who the F cares if the guy is a wacko, let him keep making movies!

Apocalypto is quite possibly the greatest movie ever made

This is in my top 10 movies for sure. Great acting, great action, great story, great ending, fantastic sets...... I don't have a bad thing to say about it.

I am astonished by Mel Gibson's imagination. He presents the apocalypse as a consequence of many seemingly unrelated things, along with the human spirit as a factor. Never gets old.

It always saddens me when I see the kids follow them until they reach the river.

The movie is an underrated masterpiece. But what frustrates me about it is the fact that they chose to portray the late postclassic of the Maya. Can you imagine a film about the classic Maya? Enormous cities, clean drinking water for everyone, theaters, poets, philosophers, perfectly white roads connecting one city to the other, nonstop trade with places so distant as Panama and Sonora. That would be the real game-changer.

every mexican family had this playing in the living room at some point

gibson maybe a lot of things but he knows how to make a film

I remembered watching it as a child. Now i just typed "Mel gibson movie jungle" because i forgot title hahaha. Good movie!!

Could we all take a minute and applaud *Mel Gibson* for being a great director + how *underrated* this movie was? 2020 + this movie is STILL *relevant* !!!

This movie is one of the best movies I've ever seen in my 35 years living.... Oh Mel Gibson is one of the best directors making movies every single movie he made is 🔥 💯

This movie is amazing! Mel did such a great job with this... landscape shots were shot so beautiful. One of the best movies I've seen to this day

Best chase movie ever.

I consider this movie one of the best i've ever seen!🔝🙌I'm a Greek but am a huge admirer of the Mayan Civilization.!🙌

This movie TELEPORTS you to the time of the Mayans. Thing single movie redeems anything negative about Mel Gibson IMO. It’s a godamn masterpiece and work of art.

There is no other movie like Apocalypto. None. This movie is a masterpiece.

One of the best movies Ive seen. Story, visuals, acting, ending all great. People that skip this movie because they don’t wanna read are missing out.

Just watched this movie for the first time month ago.. I was blown away. Fantastic Film. Also, why are people saying it's underrated ? What the hell are you talking about.. you guys are not making sense. It got bunch of rewards and was praised by number of world class film makers and critics. It got all the attention it deserved, everyone was talking about it for 10 years and it is already referred to as a cult classic. That's the only reason I decided to watch it... because all of the praise. :confused:

Watched this as a kid on Star Movies and was completely disturbed but still can't stop watching. It's somehow stamped in my heart and now I'm looking back at it. Great film.

just watched this masterpiece and i liked a lot and really enjoyed.

I really do hope Mel Gibson makes more movies there soooooooo friking good! A follow up to this would be ace! Especially with the Spanish arriving on the shores. Please Mel make a follow up!

I love this movie still watching in 2020👍.. During the pandemic hit like if you have watched it in loockdow

This is one of the best movies of all time and will be anthologized. Generations who will learn about him and follow Mel's example as a creator and artist. Mel, if you ever read this, know that you are my idol for all time. One like you is not born anymore.

This movie makes me feel even closer to my Mayan ancestors im Maya indogenous i speak the Chuj language it was my first spanish was my second and english was my third.

One of my all time favorite movies. Mel Gibson is not only a fantastic actor but also an amazing director.

Watched this years ago in College in the mid 2000s. Probably the most underrated movie of this era. Doesn't get talked about enough.

This was one of the most traumatizing movies for me, but it was really good.

best movie ever in my opinion. so many emotions and it’s all so real. lots of people i’ve talked to hates it only because you have to read the captions the whole time since there’s no english. but i could care less. i loved it so much😭

bad trailer, great movie

Everyone needs to have this movie in their collections!!!

Incredible movie that should have been nominated for multiple oscars .....it was without a doubt the BEST MOVIE of that year.

Just saw it for the first time today. Unbelievable piece of film making. Instantly one of my all time personal favorites.

One of the most badass movies out there! Still phenomenal to this day!

This is still today one of the best films that I have ever seen and one of the only films I believe about South American Native American culture. This was such a phenomenal movie

This is definitely one of the movies that stuck with me since child hood... its like watching it for the first time, every time

One of the best ever! This movie effects me everytime I watch it!

A pure masterpiece...best movie that was ever made...

This film is so good. A window to a different world. Why can’t we get more films like this?

I feel more attached to my ancestors than ever...thanks Mel.

I understand the story even without the subtitle. What a masterpiece filmmaking!

I watched the movie when it came out , than i couldn't find it anywhere for the next 14 years and today i saw it on Netflix and i am really glade i had the opportunity to watch this masterpiece again! One great piece of cinema jewel!

This and hacksaw ridge are by far Mel Gibson's best pieces of art. Both movies were masterfully done and are true pieces of art that deserve FAR MORE recognition than they get. I could watch both movies endlessly and never get sick of them. Credit is owed where credit due and he gets all the credit in the world from me. Many people may not like Mel Gibson as a person but he is a very very talented artist. We cannot deny him that.

Esse foi um dos melhores filmes que assisti! Oito anos, e hoje assisti ele outra vez, dezembro de 2021.

This movie is great. But crazy mel put his name at least four times in the credits before giving credit to the cast. The cast was epic. Amazing actors.

Mel Gibson is one of the greatest actors of all time, and one of the greatest directors of all time. i love his movies, his acting.. Great guy all around! Hope he keep making movies and keep acting. i still remember this movie when first watch.. What a exprience.. This movie give you that atmosphere.. Like real.. Brave heart, Patriot, Apocalypto.. all my favorite movies!

One of the best films I've ever seen.

The most memorable movie I'd ever had the privilege to watch. Can't say much tho about this trailer...

saw this like 5 years ago and still remember clear scenes of the movie, its a great movie

I still watch this movie in awe ( it's only my twentieth time) , although I know most of the scene I still discover things, what a piece of art, what a window into a world so unknown to the western eye.....like a new book I've introduce this film to so many of friends, Mel Gibson vision and artistry is fresh, unapologetic, sans condescension and way beyond so many predictable director of our day...Just one thing isn't the arrival of the Spanish a tad early ??

One of the most memorable movies I've ever seen. Was on the edge of my seat in the cinema, from start to finish. Exhilarating, horrific & stunning!!! ❤

This is such a great film. I still think about it from time to time. It is a heavy watch, but so worth it.

They went all out with costume/make-up design in this film, it's mesmerizing.

After Ganguva glimpse 😅

This is perhaps greatest filmmaking , art at its best. True film making

without any doubt this is the best film of this century....as it tried to discover the spirit of humanity and goes straight back into ancient era for its proofs...briliant filming of a brilliant story!!

I just watched this film for the first time. It had my full attention at all times.

I can still remember being excited when I first heard about this movie. Mesoamerican civilizations-primarily the Maya-have fascinated me since 6th grade and while I am not a Mel Gibson fan, this film is great even though it has some historic inaccuracies. Hope the Maya and the other great cultures of Mesoamerica get the proper representation on screen in the near future. Still a great movie all in all.

It’s a top five all-time greatest movie!!! Can’t believe it’s not more heavily appreciated

Seen yesterday again and kept me up all night. The cruelty of human kind has no limit, and I am sure that we, as humans, were cruel when there were no laws to go by. Great movie, Mel G. you dropped this 👑

The trailer fails to surprise me, I’m pretty sure many others feel the same. Watching the movie itself amazed me and I loved it. If only they had another trailer that did the job right

This movie surely deserves an Oscar ❤️

I'm so glad I found this masterpiece again.

One of the best movie I have ever seen...truly masterpiece

Gibson can direct the hell out of anything. I don't care that he's a racist religious fundamentalist, I don't have to talk to the guy, I just want to see cool movies. Let him make some more cool movies.

One of my top ten movies of all time

This was such a good motion picture, definitely going on the list of legendary films to show another.

esse filme e lindo demais e ao mesmo tempo e triste .....mas e impressionante ,lindissimo

This excellent epic movie has the best and the most lengthy chase in history of cinema!

I love this movie! "Apocalypto" is one of the most underrated films of all time!

A masterpiece of detail. The costume was brilliant.

how in the world I haven't watched this ten years ago I enjoyed every second😿🙀

Damn I saw this movie and it's pretty epic as fuck.

I've watched this over and over again and I would still watch it if I see it playing. Excellent movie 👍

just came back here to read the comments . i just watched it again and it gets better every time. what a masterpiece.

Um dos melhores filmes antropológicos 💕

Greatest action movie even in 2016 . cinema at its best. nothing comes closer to it. such a adrenaline rush.

im absolutely love this movie..watched many times still want to watch it again and again..i cant find movies better than this one

I remember watching this movie a lot when I was younger. This film is so underrated and I enjoyed watching it all the time.
