  • Mel Gibson is a reactionary Roman Catholic bigot.

  • i watched this in my history class...btw..im 12 and from an all girls school.. you can imagine..there was crying and alot of scarred minds :P xx

  • @strathearn100 It is very realistic except Mayan culture on the eve of the Spanish invasion was probably not nearly as bloody as depicted. The Aztecs were big on human sacrifice; the Mayans far less. Most of the costumes and the depiction of Mayan social classes and slaves seem to be spot on, however, so it's hard to fault your teacher for showing it.

  • We had accomplishments in astronomy, medicine, agriculture, education, calendar making,

    writing, art, architecture, literature, engineering, and many other things that we should be proud of.

    We had 6 major civilizations on our continent with Caral, Olmec, Maya, Moche, Inca, and Mexica civilizations.

    Our earliest civilization of Caral is older than anything in Europe by about 2,000 years.

  • Hell yeah, this movie is the absolute BOMB, I love it..I have watched it now at least 5 times or more, only MEL GIBSON, can bring out the REALISM in his movies that he has produced & directed & would be very hard to pick, which one would be his best, but I certainly would rate APOCOLYPTO, his No.1 best of all..cher..

  • AND THEY CALL MEXICANS ILLEGAL? ???

  • i watched the movie , i am a jew so i hate this scumbag but the movie was great i admit, it shows the mother and fatuher reposnabitlity and caring

  • Movie was good but the history was way off.

  • @ILUVGINGERGIRLS really how?

  • @ILUVGINGERGIRLS Yeah, people are way to sensitive about history.

  • Mel Gibson, Fuck Youuuu!!!! Stupid movie...Lieeesssss!!!!!!

  • Mayan Kingdom...

  • APRENDER HISTORIA A TRAVES DE HOLLYWOOD ES PELIGROSO. Esta película está llena de errores de contexto, históricos y de producción. Todos depilados sin cejas, pintados al estilo nativos amazónicos, usando construcciones de Bambú!! , hasta el color AZUL es un error histórico. Esta pelicula como todas las de Mel Gibson reflejan su filia por la sangre, es un hombre realmente con problemas psicológicos.

  • @turowat no soy historiador, pero lo que si se, es que Mel Gibson estuvo mucho tiempo trabajando el el INAH en Mexico antes de realizar esta pelicula. no dudo que este hecha al estilo hollywood pero Mel no es ningun tonto

  • @garnic09 : La trama te engancha, ni hablar. Pero realmente Gibson tiene obsesión por la sangre. La película el Patriota sales salpícado de sangre de la sala de cine. No se diga la pasión. YO insisto que tiene problemas psicológicos.

  • @turowat APOCAMIERDA!!!!!!!!

  • estubo muy bien ralizada pero habla mal de la cultura maya por ellos no heran asi como se muestra en la pelicula eran tranquilo y sabioa es una ofensa para cultura maya principalmente para la raza mexicana

  • mel gibson is A SON OF BY BITCH HE IS RACIST AND HE MADE MONEY USING MY RAZA WTF,,I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE OUT HIS HEART AND PUT IT IN HIS MOUTH LIKE MY ANCESTERS AZTEC AND MAYAS

  • EXELLENT MOVIE....!!!!

  • NO TO RACIST WHITE SUPREMACIST PROPAGANDA!

    CHECK OUT THE REAL APOCALYPTO FILM GIBSUN SHOULD HAVE MADE AT, MEXICA MOVEMENT.ORG

    SUPPORT INDIGENOUS RIGHTS!

  • Mel Gibson rocks every film he makes is a masterpiece that stands on its own merits. As director he has few equals.

  • Awesome Movie!!!

  • Mel gibson is an ignorant racist cunt!

  • @Thejadestorm2012 well thats a contradiction statement..LOL..means you aint no better by just saying that...wow..ignorant!

  • @Lancearodriguez except jews

  • what are those things in her face at 1:14?

  • @ChrisRocksYourAnus ancient tattoo's and jewels ^^

  • @lordeppiothe1 no like the things that look like are embedded in their skin? like the girl on the right has the patterns on her forehead and left cheek

  • @ChrisRocksYourAnus like i said , tattoos , primitive ,probably cut i the skin with a knife or something. Some tribes today still do that

  • @ChrisRocksYourAnus Scarification, scar tissue. Cut the skin, (in whatever pattern you want) rub ash in the cuts, let it heal then cut it again, until scar tissue is built up under the skin.

  • It´s a great movie but so violent. I could barely watch half of it.

  • according to mel, the jews caused the mayas to fall

  • Mel Gibson pwns miserable jews!

  • I wished Mel would show about how spainish buztardos made genocide on whole America (north and south). I liked that film VERY much idd. Mel didnt pay for famous actors fuk loads of dollars and used real mayan origined actors (not like Tom Cruise as The last samurai ffs!) make ups, places are superb. The subjuct is some weak maybe but he can make a serie of that imo! watch it ppl!

  • FUCK MEL GIBSON AND HIS IGNORANT WAY OF DEPICTING MY PEOPLE WITH THIS WEAK PIECE OF SHIT HE CALLS A MOVIE, THIS ''MOVIE'' ONLY SHOWS WHAT KIND OF SOAP PUBLIC SCHOOLS USED ON HIS MICRO SIZE BRAIN.

  • @MEXICANMADESTWR STFU U PIECE OF CAGADA

  • @skillerdoom8 i swear taht guy es un pedaso de shit

  • @MEXICANMADESTWR fuck you moron.

    go die,leave space to earth from your useless meat.

  • Mel Gibson's historical movies are full of historical mistakes, like braveheart were the kilt wasn't even used at that time, or the englsih were so evil or this one were mayans are shown has people living in tribes with no knowledge of astronomics, but after all those are just movies 'n are made must for fun, not like books at all.

  • @NickRiviera10

    Why couldn't there be small mayan villages in the jungle? I think that, besides the great city states, there were small villages (perhaps not many).

  • @Lancearodriguez True, but how dare you not mention Braveheart!

  • the guy at 0:53 should have a role in spartacus blood and sand!

  • Mel Gibson is a big fuckin racist. He hates Jews, Latinos and black people.

  • @scorpgul Regardless of whether that is true or not, he made a great film

  • @scorpgul lol get out

  • @MultipleScrotum I am a black jewish muslim middle-eastern nazi

  • @scorpgul you forgot communist

  • Mel Gibson did it so true.

  • his movie is full of historical mistakes. there was never human sacrifises, conquest, brutality, he did it with mayan caracters but in a roman way. what an idiot!

  • @tlamatinime1 you want historical accuracy then go read a book a movie is supposed to tell its own history to make it so its not a complete snore fest

  • @tlamatinime1 lol you need to do more research yourself moron

  • Dis movie is so damn true. the problem is dat if we portray native american the savage way they lived everybody says is racist (specially the native americans), but if we portray the european as dirty pirates or vikings, or violent modafukers at western movies or gangs of new york, everybody says how cool they were. Just because mayans had a really developed knowledge of science, it doesnt mean they were perfect. they were as violent as all people around the world

  • Mel Gibson hope his liver hardens quickly big racist alcoholic

  • @selenadelos learn to spell and hes not racist this is completely correct on the sacrifice,weapons,etc.

  • @sniperglory4 Yeah he is a no good dam racist and not just because of this movie Oh and up you did I spell it correctly !

  • The only Mel Gipson movie that is worth watching.

  • is this movie aztec or mayan??

  • it looks like a kickass movie!!

  • TRULY A EPIC MOVIE..FOR ONE IT HAS STIRRED SO MUCH CONTROVERSY..LOL..HENCE: ALL THE STUPID COMMENTS..

  • @ltuomela

    No, actually it's a stupid movie by a stupid racist man.

  • @Dontshutmeup back up to my last comment, controversy is never welcomed...but i welcome it all day....fuckin moron..if he was racist this movie would have been and gone in a different direction..OPEN YOUR MIND..whatya a Spaniard? and if its so stupid why ya here??? BING!

  • oh mmmm ohhh mmmm, ok sorry your mom just finished blowing me, now you say they were much more violent...no shit..why would i deny it? it was violence that let England become a super power. i know you want a world where everyone can jump in joy and sniff flowers and hold hands but thats not reality, i bet you have not spent one second in a battle zone have you? no thats right you coward. you say they were more peaceful people..congrats thats why you propbaly got invaded.. thats what peace gets u

  • loved this film , good verses evil ..awesome

  • was there a point that i missed?

  • no mames guey por si en tiendes espanol ok burro

  • where he remained Gonzalo Guerrero, he fought with the Maya

  • @utekargautam76 The civilization maybe dead but the people aren't, and neither is the history and heritage.

  • I wish Part 2 shows how the Spaniards decimate these ugly-demonic-foul smelling-corpse sniffing-South American Neanderthals.

  • @101ers77 chill man they are still human.

  • @101ers77 I wish you know that these guys native americans which are mayans dont live in south america you dumbass... =]

  • @101ers77 Shut your fucking mouth, you "sophisticated" Europeans had 10 times more diseases than any Native American civilization. Your streets were filled with your own waste, your disgusting race had orgies to please your homosexual and taboo urges which gave birth to the next inbred generation. You try to make yourselves look good with your so called "renaissance" when really you just found out how to further quench your sexual lust with new disgusting positions. I spit on your filthy race.

  • @Blackknight1212 lol preach it!

  • @Blackknight1212 ok your homo comments point to the greeks but your renissance point to other coutries, england, italy... couries where homo's where not at that time...... lol plus these coutries went on to conquer other countries.... point in case your a twat.

  • @HMRoyalMachine Homo's didn't exist at that time? lol is that a fucking joke, there have always been homos throughout Europe thats were it fucking originated. You can read about countless accusations and stories of gay people in Europe. But that wasn't my only point, it was simply one of the hundreds of disgusting taboos Europeans indulged in. The fact that you only focused on that and didn't deny the rest of my factual insults makes you twat, fucking bitch.

  • @HMRoyalMachine Homo's didn't exist at that time? lol is that a fucking joke, there have always been homos throughout Europe thats were it fucking originated. You can read about countless accusations and stories of gay people in Europe. But that wasn't my only point, it was simply one of the hundreds of disgusting taboos Europeans indulged in. The fact that you only focused on that and didn't deny the rest of my factual insults makes you a twat, fucking bitch.

  • @Blackknight1212 lol i wasn't going to get into full detail c0ck jockey, are you telling me that the people in this movie are better than the people of Europe at that time? if so you really are stupid. You start bashing Europe but your name is Black Knight....you know the knight..the thing people like to dress as at renaissance fairs....but you hate Europe, you sir are a confused Dick Monkey that needs another bannan. Whats wrong are you from a country who has been invaded by a European country?

  • @HMRoyalMachine Are the people in this movie better off than the Europeans? Hell yes! There lives are far more pure and natural, compared to the common European who smelled like death, was depressed because of poverty, and was constantly thinking about sexual lust and craving to be the next greedy land baron. My name has knight in it? wtf does that have to do with anything? Yes just because knight is in my name I have a raging boner for Europe. Oh and by the way "cock jocky" wtf? Fuck you douche

  • @Blackknight1212 cock jockey...your a jokey but instead of a horse you like cok better....you sick bastard, and the reason i point out your name is because you hate Europe but you have knight in your name, knight is a European soldier..its spelt in your name the same way also...dont deny it.... there is a world for you..... contradicting dumb knob shiner! While countrys like England, Italy, ect where out conquering other countrys these people in the movie where to busy playing with there own poo

  • @HMRoyalMachine Thank you for clearing out that faggish comeback. "Sick bastard"? Were did that come from? Yes you fucking retarded ass inbred son of a bitch I know what and where a fucking knight comes from. I'm not "denying" anything, and lets get one thing straight, I don't "hate" Europe, I was simply pointing out that back in that time your people were far more disgusting, savage, and violent than these Native men, history books and SMART people (as in not you) back me up.

  • @HMRoyalMachine Oh and once again you didn't even try to deny my facts about your old savage Europe, you simply made up some half assed fifth grade joke about poop. If you think conquering makes you civilized then you really are dumber than what your retard level comments make you sound. Theres category for people that completely ignore an insult and topic and pick out something stupid to talk about (like a name) a person that knows the truth but denies it even though he knows hes WRONG.

  • @HMRoyalMachine One more thing "contradicting dumb knob shiner" isn't a word you fucking dumb ass bitch. You also misspelled word, you fail at life douche bag.

  • @HMRoyalMachine learn to fucking spell and go fuck your self dumb fuck... FIRST of all the aztecs and mayans were ENSLAVED by your kind... BEFORE THAT they were FUCKING MURDERED BY A BUNCH OF SAVAGE GREEDY MOTHERFUCKING ASSHATS WHO CANT UNDERSTAND A CULTURE WHEN THEY SEE ONE and NO IM NOT FUCKING RACIST im talking about BACK THEN

  • @utekargautam76 in other words your repeating the start of the film

  • I loved this movie... say what you want about Mel Gibson's personal life but his movie directing skills are second to no one.

  • @Lancearodriguez de los dos paises y hay mucha gente que son verdaderos descendientes de los mayas=)

  • que pedo con el pendejo son of bitch que aparece al ultimo, que estupido eres dude, maldito pussy xD jajajajaja

  • i hope mel gibson makes an aztec movie and how tenoctitlan was builts, its a real rag to riches story.

  • all hail TENOCTITLAN

  • @utekargautam76 that makes absolutley no sense. Where is your support?

  • The story of the end of the Mayan Empire, told by a racist, sexist alcoholic abusive Aussie from the Disney Corporation. Get it?

  • i actually thought mel gibson played the leader of the troops (the one with all the jaw bones etc) until i watched the making of the film.......dumb ass

  • this movie was tight but the very end was dummmbbb

  • Mel is good, i think he is my fav. Director also Quentin bouth are so great

    i hope i see much more Movie from these Guys

  • hye ... excellent muve .....

    can any body tell me the other muvie name whch was about amazon forest............plzzzzzzzzzz­zzz

  • @Lancearodriguez yea i know i couldnt agree more

  • @thisismewhy I am proud of my indigenous blood. Go curl up in the corner to cry, or better yet, go kill yourself.

  • @thisismewhy I'm more than proud to have ancestors that have been indigenous to this land mass, I will be visiting Tenoctitlan soon!

  • @LaRezNar go ahead and visit that shit hole

  • it was film in mexico veracruz.

  • das ist der beste film den ich jemals gesehen habe ...!!!!

  • this movie just reeks of amazing-ness.

    i loved it<3 the storyline was beautiful, as well as the scenes.

    & c'mon, rudy youngblood is so cute:)

  • blood and more blood... thats the only thing that sold the movie...the rest...there is no research or history on there..... like a "movie based on ideas of what a maya is by a gringo"...hehe

  • @diana914roam

    No you are wrong. For example the Mayans NEVER sacrificed woman or children and the movie was true to that. The movie was also true to the use of eclipses of the Sun to impress the population. The Mayans did know when there would be an eclipse of the Sun and planned events around them.

  • one of my very favourites movies!

  • the real idea behind the cross coming was simply put in the title... you think that whole movie was savage? just wait til that boat docks LOL

  • sum of the guys here are punnie and for d reasearch , aztec were one of the most fit culture people. even women, sum were really short in the film, and the average heaght was 5'12

  • mel should have the award for best director

  • 1 fucked up film !

  • apocalypto deserved so many more rewards than it received. just proves how corrupt hollywood can be. mel gibson was in the bad books for his anti semantic comments and so hollywood being run mostly by people of jewish origin made sure mel didnt do as well as he should of with this film.

  • @mrmanrules Just shows you who runs Hollywood and the USA.

  • WOW an actual intelligent comment posted on youtube !?!

    I'm really impressed w/ your comment and you are right in the argument. oh well hollywood's loss. :P

  • @mrmanrules no it did not! u see how many bloopers there are in it? ..ive seen the film 4 times.. still good, but so many fails..

  • @TheHighVic Yes it DID deserve awards. It deserved shitloads of awards.

  • @mrmanrules i agree, this film was beauty.

  • @mrmanrules True, the oscars are a joke!!! all about the politics

  • @mrmanrules it had nothing to do with phukin jews mang

  • @mrmanrules so hollywood should be anti-semitic then?

  • i never saw so many in your face drop dead off the roof hot guys together in one movie before.

  • the ending has no real story

  • this movie was so awesome

    still can't believe mel gibson wrote it

    he has talent, hopefully he makes more great movies like this

  • I am going to have to see this movie

  • He did not wrote it by himself.

  • @sacore3 Sorry you can't re-write "History" my "Culture" is about 3,500 years old, all he did was show how it was like in the "Mayan World" before it's collapsed, still is ashame he only focused on the violent side of it, "The Mayan" were better than that, great astronomers, great thinkers, great writers, and over all a great Civilization, not a savage one as is portraited here.

    for a glimpse of their achievements, you should check, City of el Mirador.

  • Im sorry but im confused and have no idea what your talking about. I never said anything about the mayans or history or culture, i just said this movie was awesome. What do you mean by sorry you can't re-write history and your culture?

  • @rayochapin: this is very true but what Gibson was trying to focus on was how back then, they were quite barbaric in terms of what they did, so in the end when they show the boat with the priests coming over, it's to make a point how Christianity like 'saved the world' from all it's corruption! ahaha or some shit like that!

  • @mcnattmc those were the Spanish arriving in boats, and that is how it ended. I don't see how Gibson was trying to show that christianity saved the world when the movie had nothing to do with christianity.

  • Mel Gibson deserved to win the Academy Award for Best Actor!!!^O^...it's so ridiculous how his personal life interfered with his award chances!!-in fact, Apocalypto deserved Best Picture - it was an amaaaazing movie! Rudy Youngblood deserved Best Actor, his portrayal was absolutely extraordinary!!!...and they also deserved Best Makeup, Best Costumes, Best Cast (if there were such an award)...the entire movie was amazing and deserved much greater credit than was awarded!!!....

  • But friends, is it not written that ALL empires or civilizations - however powerful - must perish someday? Consider the decline of the present Anglo-American empire into economic dysfunction, fruitless military aggression and educational decline.

  • No, actually I think that is putting it too simply. I'm not sure what decay from within you are talking about. I'm not even sure how you would demonstrate this quantitatively or qualitatively. I mean can you provide examples?Not sure how you would describe the thousands of American Indian cultures destroyed from within. The decay in all of them is just coincidence when they all met Western cultures?

  • Haha wow how idiotic. You do realize that you are judging using standards from your own ideology/culture. How could you ever cast your own personal standards on a culture you homogenize and have no clue about? Your ideas of social/cultural evolution are very outdated. Also you are judging a snapshot of a stereotype. Western cultures have also had so called terrible pasts. You have no clue on the trajectory of a given culture.

  • wats the song at the end??

  • Esta pelicula es una mierda, llena de errores históricos y llena de racismo.

    This film is pure shit, full of historic mistake and xenophobia

  • All to obvious what Gibson's point of view was, when the movie ends with the arrival of the Spanish. The Christians (Catholic Spain) was going to save the refugee at last from the barbarian Maya, and it was for that that teh conquistadores came..to save souls and not for gold, yeah...

  • @ 0:53 that man was a bad ass in the movie. I love his outfit. That's a class A Warriror outfit right there.

  • error

  • mexicans in their habitat lol take care of ur white daughters americans cos these indians like white girls more than a fat kid likes a cake

  • este pinche cojudo con sus chingados comentarios, ya es la segunda vez que leo la misma burrera que escribir.

  • Read Liza Grandia article on this movie. She is SO WRONG! People really have a hard time with something even esp when it is the truth. All history is not beautiful, but that is why we are here. We are learning and growing. Liza thinks that showing the true history on the Myans will somehow damage their efforts today. This is absurd. Good work Mel Gibson. One of my favorite movies!

  • der film ist so genial!

    und rudy youngblood wohl die beste wahl der hauptrolle!

  • wtf are you talking about glant2005

  • HOW ARE mR dUMAS?

  • what the fuck is wrong with you?

  • you are still trusting a book when i have talked to real people who studied for decades. i have hours of conversations with these professors on this whole mayan thing. And im not trying to change science. skim through books and just want to seem tham as savages and not bother to go into detail about it. Hey even science books are wrong thats why they have to be changed in high schools to update new findings and information.

    you need to relax and smoke some weed guy

  • yes it is a silly debate. and if you bothered to read my comments scrifices were held for captures prisonors of war, since there was alot of war, alot of sacrifices dont you think?

    and 30,000,000? wtf? thay had to be allied or be killed! come on dude you are just pulling bullshit out of your ass now. Guerrero must of loved that style of life cuz when they came to pick him up he didnt want to leave! ahahaha

  • dont compare when i have talked to real people with real credentials, and how have seen the sites and studied than languages for decades than to a site where anyone can put what they want.

  • the maya people even took in a salve spaniard by the name of Gonzalo Guerrero he learned the maya way of life, and learned first hand what they were like. he married a maya princess and had 3 sons. he loved them and his new family.

    when the spaniards came for him he did not want to go back. he said he is no longer a spaniard and proudly said he is a mayan and died fighting for the mayan people.

  • hey frequently practiced it upon a variety of animals," writes Dr. Max Shein in his book The Precolumbian Child, "but the supreme sacrifice was that of human life. The victims of these rites were enemy soldiers and slaves!!!

  • They excelled in the fields of painting, pottery, sculpture, mathematics, and astronomy. They developed complex, highly accurate calendars and an advanced writing system that used more than 800 hieroglyphic characters. Only in the 20th century were scholars able to get a clear understanding of the meaning of these hieroglyphs, after realizing that they combined both symbols for words and symbols for sounds

  • i know the real people who have studied the anchients in universities not some fucked website wikipedia! have done real research and talked to real people and disapprove everything in this film and ! and they have said they write these kind of books to make money!! and futher make them look like savages. all propaganda. just like the above the influence commercials

    you sir are an ass!

  • it is bullshit!!! a mass of history is bullshit! those are books based on false accounts, aztecs were crazy i admit that but every cultrue is fucking crazy  white people raped killed native americans along with crossing the border of mexico and breaking mexican laws before the alamo, black people sold their own race into slavery, japanese created the rape of nanking! humans are the bastards!

  • are you white?

  • mel gibson had to make an apology to the mayan peolpe for using incorrect and invented things for this movie'

  • This was a great movie, regret waiting so long to see it.

  • apocalypto is a verb in greek which means reveal

  • cool,Check my channel TRIBUTE TO THE INCAS .

  • was this peru or mexico???

  • MEXICO!!!!!!

  • ass you can see assys make good films so do the usa

  • What does Apocalypto mean????

  • Mel Gibson's title "Apocalypto", which in Greek means "an unveiling and a new beginning"

    Apcalypse in french means end of the world.

  • aaaahhhhhh i got it :D....thanks

  • he means the catholic christians are going to come and help the poor savages by raping and robbing them so they don't have to be that savage anymore (end of the movie).

  • civilizacion de canibales
