We’re still anumber of days away from the wise release, but the early Apocalypto reviews are starrting to come in… and they look just amazing. Of the 20 or so reviews I’ve read, only 1 didn’t seem to like it. The rest… do more than like it… they’re loving it. And from the reviews, Apocalypto is something that I wasn’t expecting it to be… the year’s best ACTION movie!?!?!
Here is what some of the critics have to say in their Apocalypto reviews:
watch it as the best, most thrilling, and longest chase actioner Hollywood has made this year, putting to shame genre “experts” like Michael Bay.
Emanuel Levy – EmanuelLevy.ComMel Gibson is always good for a surprise, and his latest is that Apocalypto is a remarkable film.
Todd McCarthy – VarietyGibson has made a film of blunt provocation and bruising beauty.
Peter Travers – Rolling StoneIt isn’t merely fascinating, it is nothing less than one of the very best movies of the year, and it contains some of the best foot chases in cinematic history.
Steve Rhodes – Internet ReviewsA slam-bang, action-packed chase movie that puts the audience smack-dab in the middle of pre-Columbian America. If you can stand the gore and violence, “Apocalypto” is a don’t-miss experience.
Tony MedleyFrom a huge epic to a tight chase, from good, evil, and poetry to murder, it positively clobbers us over the head and for some, that’s a lot of fun.
