This is how the old world died... another Gibson's masterpiece.

This is just one hell of an epic movie. Full of epic speeches, violence, and adventure. I like how it shocks the viewers quite a few times throughout like throwing the one dude off the cliff and the big tree falling. My favorite kill was the arrow through the back of the head and out of the mouth. Although my favorite scene is definitely Jaguar Paw taking out his “nemesis” at the end. It was shot so well! The score was great, especially during his escape and the leader in chase after Jaguar Paw killed his son. I love that his father’s lesson of fear came full circle in the end, “I am Jaguar Paw. This is my forest. And I am not afraid.” The first and second act are great but the third act really bumps this up to a 4.5. If you like violence and unique ways of killing people, then this film is for you. It’s also a very captivating story of family and community but I’m more of a violence guy.

Great movie! 9/10.

The problem with using "made up" language is that the characters talk very slow like toddlers, very ridiculous.

A civilization is finished when it rots inside.

"Travel Well" [spoiler] A visual masterpiece. I like the take on death they have in this film, especially when the village was attacked. It was shown has destruction and the longer it went on, the way it was presented was to show the pain instead of what usually occurs in a glorification of it. Mel Gibson is a true talent. [/spoiler]

I’ve always heard about this one. Various good things. Various bad things. Easy to hate for some. Easy to admire for others. Long story short, this movie was beautifully brutal. It was engaging beyond belief and wonderfully shot, but I wholeheartedly can understand why some people may be appalled. Nearly 20 years later, the effects have mostly held up pretty well which is a bonus!

Rating: 4/5 - 85% - Would Recommend
