Not me - its a rare foreign language movie I want to see but you sure can see the crtics projecting their own bias -like this quote from one of the PC crowd.


>>"And the ending with the arrival of the Spanish (conquistadors) underscored the film's message that this culture is doomed because of its own brutality. The implied message is that it's Christianity that saves these brutal savages."<<

The Spanish conquest was brutal - we know that. That doesn't mean its wrong for Gibson to examine aspects the civilization that was there before that are often overlooked.
