Antoninus, I saw the preview of "Apocolypto." It is absolutely repellant. As far as "The Passion," I have heard enough about it to know it is not something I can watch.
All I am giving is my opinion and the reason for my holding it.I am not trying to dissuade anyone else from going.
I would be interested in your opinion after you do see it.

I would be interested in your opinion after you do see it. As there will likely be a lot of Apocalpyto threads kicking around for the next few weeks, I'm sure you'll see my opinion at some point. However, I admit in advance that I'm biased in favor of this movie anyway as the subject is one that I find fascinating. And having read some of the absolutely horrendous primary sources about the brutal and bloody lives of the Meso-American and North American native people, I'll probably walk out thinking Mel didn't go far enough...
