The liberal elite and Hollywood don't mind the violence - the reason Apocalypto is attacked is that it destroys the liberal myth of the "Noble Savage". The crimes of which liberals love to blame Western civilization for causing are shown to be practiced widely among the Mayans - slavery, human sacrifice, torture, cannibalism, ageism . . . .

I don't want to give away the details, but what saves the hero of the movie at the end (and the average Mayan) is the arrival of the Spanish on the beach with a cross. Western Christianity saves the Mayans from torture and death by the Mayan cult of death, IMO. A great movie.

You nailed it

The multi-cultis cannot tolerate a non-Western "native American" culture being shown as being loathsome, savage, and in need of elimination

I'm hoping that Mel does a film on the life of Mohammod

I cannot believe you gave away the ending. You are the type of person I immensely dislike.
