Apocalypto - Poster

Here is a movie I wanted to watch for a long time. The trailer seemed interesting but I only heard bad comments about it.

We’ve watched it this week and I can say it is really nice!

When his idyllic existence is brutally disrupted by a violent invading force, a man is taken on a perilous journey to a world ruled by fear and oppression where a harrowing end awaits him. Through a twist of fate and spurred by the power of his love for his woman and his family he will make a desperate break to return home and to ultimately save his way of life.
