I finally saw Apocalypto last night, and can I just say… holy merciful fuckballs.

The film is pretty intense, but my god it is brilliant. I can’t even put into words just how much I loved it, from Mel Gibson’s directing (believe me, it pains me to say that) to every single performance in the film (especially Rudy Youngblood as Jaguar Paw).

The characters are all just so badass but the film isn’t just blood and gore; it has so much heart. I found myself cheering out loud at certain parts, laughing at how insanely awesome Jaguar Paw was, and even tearing up on occasion (tears of both joy and sorrow).

Please, Tumblr, tell me you agree?

I cannot BELIEVE it took me so long to see it - I would pay anything to see it on the big screen. It moves immediately into one of my favourite films of all time, no question about it.
