I’ve long thought about watching “The Mission” but have heard it is very gory. Of course, this is realistic when considering the martyrdoms of the Jesuit-missionaries.

I am amazed The Mission is even on the list. Not only is it bad history but at the time of release was widely, and correctly, condemned for being anti-Catholic. While the story of moral regeneration on the part of De Niro was moving, don't forget the villain of the piece was the very Church this list recommends.
