  • It might not be historically accurate, but Mel Gibson did a great job in visuals and the story itself. We both don't have knowledge regarding the indigenous people in America, specifically the group of people that are portrayed in this film, so we can only say our opinion based on what we saw in the film.

    Simply put? A MASTERPIECE.. Seriously!! Think about the BALLS it took to make this film! Imagine walking into ANY Hollywood studio telling them you need $40 Million to make an EPIC mayan movie w/ NO movie stars, ON LOCATION in a mexican jungle and shoot it in the native MAYAN language. You would be LAUGHED out of every exec office. This movie is solely the result of Mel Gibsons passion and for the project and having enough in his bank account to probably guarantee its completion.

      Well this is another cliche representation of the Mayan culture, lot of wrong references, fake details, not even close historical exact temporality. The starring acting is not on charge with Mexican or local Mayan even when great actors participate in the cast. The last scene with the “Spanish contact” is out of context and nothing realistic.

      @@daveraven1821 Most (almost all) movies about the middle ages in europe are even less realistic, yet I rarely see people complain about that. I feel like there's a double standard about this, people just expect a historical movie about a native culture to be super realistic and complain about every single detail. But movies never worked like that. I think Apocalypto did the most important part, where so many "historical" movies fail: most of the time, those movies just show people with a 21th century mindset, and the historical setting is just a scenery. Here it's not the case, those people are different from us, as they should. Including the "good guys", you can feel in the beginning that it's a different culture, you feel immersed.
      Sure, I'd have also prefered a more realistic movie, but considering how unique it is and how it geos further than most historical movie, I really like Apocalypto overall.

    The Aztecs, Inca, and Myans believed that the Sun needed human sacrifice in exchange for providing the mortals the weather to grow their crops and other things.
    It happened everywhere on Earth. The Vikings did it, North American Native Americans did it, the Chinese, Africans, Middle Easterners; practically everyone did human sacrifice to their God(s). It is only a question of how long ago they gave it up.

    The scene where Jaguar Paw and the other two guys chasing him come to the beach and see the ships is probably as strange to them as it would be to us today and seeing an alien spaceship with creatures disembarking.
    Latin America is generally understood to consist of the entire continent of South America in addition to Mexico and Central America. The peoples of this large area shared the experience of conquest and colonization by the Spaniards and Portuguese
    from the late 15th through the 18th century by these Europeans.

      its an extraordinary movie one of my favorites, unfortunately its not historically accurate. the maya cities were abandoned 500 years before europeans first arrived in the americas. the small spanish ships would not scare the mayans since the maya had bigger ships than the spanish. this was written by the spanish themselves. also the first spanish to arrive in the yucatan peninsula were captured and were taken as slaves. the spanish later used several tribes to conquer mexico, mainly the tlaxcaltecas. the tlaxcalteca were also shipped to the philipines by the spanish and they helped conquer the philippines. in retaliation for killing ferdinand magellan. ill stop here

    That masterpiece of Mel Gibson´s made me realize how and why Hernán Cortés was able to defeat the Aztecs: It was not just his few hundreds of men (which is pretty much the narrative here in Europe), but a coalition of the Spaniards and the mesoamerican tribes and people who had been tyrannized by the Aztecs for two centuries. They just had enough.

    • @davidprietogomez7254
      @davidprietogomez7254 Год назад

      Exactly. Spaniards were guided by natives tribes to the city that was opressing them "please destroy them" 500 spaniards together with many natives. Fun fact, after spaniards saw with their eyes what was going on, Hernan Cortes ordered to burn the ships, no option to go back, just conquer . This was in 1519. Just when spaniards landed , they made the first ally "Xicomeatl" or as spanish called him
      "Fat Chiefman" he was the ruler of the totonaca tribe, the aztecs had conquered them years before and were demanding taxes and 100's of kids for human sacrifaces.
      Fat Chiefman hated aztecs and saw the power and determination of the conquistadors, so he showed the spaniards the way to Tecnotitlan, the capital of the aztecs, provided Cortes with warriors and asked him to please destroy the aztec"
      And so they did.

      Afaik it's not the narrative here in Europe. I learned in school about it, it's decently explained. And I think it's a larger combinaison of factors that what you're mentioning: the plague played a large role too (it's believed 3/4th of the entire population died from diseases). And also the religious factor (from the native side), which helped politically, for example to rally support as you said. It's as if every single condition was met by chance to make that invasion possible with so little men. That being said, technology played a role too. Spanish armors and weapons were overwelming. Enough for a few hundred men to win against several thousand natives. But not enough to make an empire with 10 million people fall indeed.
      Ironically, the exact same thing happened to the Incas: before the Europeans arrived, they had just expanded like the Aztecs, so everyone hated them. Another nice timing for Spain.
      Here in the movie it's the Mayas though, not the Aztecs. The Mayas took a lot more effort from Spain to subdue because they didn't have central autority and because they were very defiant. Several thousands men were necessary and the pacification took a few decades.

    So far all the reactors have missed the meaning of the arrival of the Spanish fleet and why Mel Gibson filmed it that way.
    First of all, that arrival is what saves Jaguar Paw when he's about to get killed on the beach at the last moment.
    Second, what Jaguar Paw and his family have ahead of them is a new beginning.
    Symbolism, the Spanish Fleet arrival is what saves those smaller tribes prosecuted, murdered and enslaved by the Mayans.
    Look at who is on the first boat, soldiers and the priest holding the cross ABOVE them.
    Why? Because the purpose of the Spanish wasn't to arrive to a shore and murder everyone they met, those ships could barely fit 25-30 men each and all the food and fresh water required for months of travel, yeah, the ships and the armored soldiers look impressive to the indigenous people, but they were still too few to abandon the shore, go into the jungle and exterminate/enslave tribes of thousands.
    As the marines found out when they arrived at the pacific islands in WWII, it's not easy to go into a jungle and survive, even without the Japanese shooting at you, and even with modern medicine to try and fight the infections.
    The mission was to make alliances with the locals, teach them and learn from them (the first grammar book of a modern language was the Spanish by Antonio de Nebrija in 1492, the second was a Nahuatl grammar in 1531, yes, even before an English grammar was published).
    The Spanish clerics learned the native language and wrote a grammar, they were the most cultured of the population, since they knew Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Italian, French, German, English, geography mathematics, philosophy... they were not in the ships just to spread the religion, they were experts at communication with foreigners and acted as diplomats.
    That's what Mel Gibson meant, the end of an era of savagery and cannibalism, the beginning of a new era for Jaguar Paw, his woman, children, and everyone else.

    The animal in the beginning is called a tapir. It does look like a pig and it doesn't help that they used silly pig sounds in the movie, but it's most closely related to the horse and hippo. I got to meet a baby tapir in the Amazon Rainforest of Ecuador when I was living there. Not conventionally good-looking, but still very cute, in my opinion. They're very smart but also can be very dangerous (like any animal). I remember reading about one that took off a woman's arm at a zoo. They're built for the harsh environment of the rainforest. ❤

    I saw a video about this where they got a historian on who knows a lot about this culture and while they paid a lot of attention to the language and costumes and sets and all of that, the big problem is that the culture that was doing human sacrifice like this was long gone by the time that Europeans showed up. Gibson made it so it was like "ah ha, and now the human sacrifice culture will suffer" but they were already crumbled by the time of Columbus. It was like hundreds of years apart or something. Their culture was destroyed by the drought and famine that was why they were doing human sacrifice, not by the conquistadores.

So our protagonist " Jaguar " is witnessing the beginning of the end of many of his people , even though he doesn't know it yet , as he and his young family watch those strange ships at anchor in the harbor and the men from them coming to the shore on launches . But the really sad part of that is that it will be Jaguar's young infant son and his big brother that will , in their lifetime , see the full development of the horrors that the Europeans will bring .

    Aztecs are from the middle ages, it's not "a very long time ago" no, it's also just before the Europeans, the same as in the movie. Americans civilizations were very isolated, it's a lot harder to develop when there's a lack of contacts with other civilizations (while in the "old world" (Asia, Europe, Africa...) new discoveries spreaded quickly, to sum it up you benefited from stuff invented in the other side of the world). So while it was still antiquity in Mesoamerica, in Europe, Asia and north Africa the middle ages just ended.

    As brutal as the tribes are towards each other the name Apocalypto refers to the arrival of the Spanish at the end of the movie. It's been estimated that more than 100 million natives of North and South America were killed or succumbed to disease with the arrival of European settlers with entire people's and cultures wiped out.

      And it never really ended. Today, non natives have evolved and are more inclusive, in most cases, towards indigenous peoples while the governments, particularly America, still keep tribes under a federal agency controlling moneys, courts, laws etc., and most aspects of natives lives while the slightest controls to non natives is labeled communism or socialism. Think about it. Now we’re uncovering mass graves of indigenous children killed under Christian government funded boarding schools.

  • @itt23r
    @itt23r Год назад +8

    In saying that their state was worse now that the Spanish arrived I think you may have missed the point of the movie. Remember Gibson is devoutly Christian and his intent seems to be to set the record straight as to what was going on in the new world at the time of the Spanish conquistadores. The Mayan religion had become degenerate, human sacrifice (as was depicted) being a central theme. So the ships represent a new beginning for the people. Order and Christianity was being brought to them, which would very soon do away with the bloodletting. Or as Christ summed up at the end of the book of Revelation (aka, the Apocalypse), "Behold, I make all things new again."
    So whatever ills the Europeans may have brought to the New World, they did put an end to a savage and cruel civilization that deserved to be toppled, a civilization that I am sure a lot of people living there at the time were praying would be toppled. And in spite of what is popular to say these days, when everything is considered the New World is better (not worse) for the introduction of Western civilization (Christianity, especially). And that is what the movie is trying to portray.

    • @JesusPerez-ht5id

      @@JesusPerez-ht5id The only hate I am seeing in this conversation is yours. And it is manifested in your extremely exaggerated, extremely one-sided and ridiculosly oversimplified retelling of the historical record. The European incursions into the New World are a mixed bag of good and bad. And yes some have done very bad things in the name of Christianity. But the majprity of those who try to adhere to its tenets have made the world a better place, because at its core (as anyone who has ever actually studied the New Testament can testify) is a message of love for one's neighbor, not hate. And it is a love so radical that it asks it's adherents to be willing to lay down their live for their fellow man, which is the opposite of what the Mayans were doing on that pyramid.

    I can see how a barbaric culture like this could take root. A lot of scholars believe that there were at least 50 million and as much as 100 million people in North and Central America. This movie takes place about 8 years after the arrival of Columbus and disease has had that long to spread like wild fire and leave the land nearly devoid of people. The little girl they saw was likely dying of something the Europeans brought over, and even though by today's standards they probably would have seemed like barbarians anyway, turning it up to eleven might be the result of the cataclysmic arrival of the Conquistadors.
