IT;s NOT MY VIEW ASK Mr. HERMIT HE WILL KNOW ALL REVIWERS AND HE CAN TELL WHOSE TAKE IT ISI think its a kind of story and movie which comes across screens once in a life time. There were other movies, based on such story but they dont show reallity, what they show are computer graphics but in this flick Mel gibson shows almost and everything on real locations( what I mean is there are no computer graphics even if there are u wont find them.
Some where I read that it is debut movie for the main lead, hero but again no one can tell after watching his performance that its his debut. The cinematography is mind blowing. There are number of scenes which are so difficult even to imagine, but thanks to Gibson and who ever is cinematographer .what comes on screen is real piece of gem.
Most of the reviews I read tell that its is sick movie or there is too much violence, but it needs guts to direct such movie as well as it needs guts to digest the reallity of evolution of human life. I dont think that the story tells anything about the so called extinct civilization but Gibs uses that plot as a background . Basically its the simple story which has been shown before number of times that is good guy versus bad guys. The plot is same but the background the theme gives a touch of rarirty. Gibs shows that he is not only good actor but much more passonaite director. The movie goes on good pace, it holds you. The back ground is superb. Costumes tatoos body piercing all are so amazing and at the same time beileveable.
I think the movie deserves much more awards than what in the end it got. I dont understand when almost everyone appriciates spiderman, and all such movies which got too much of violence, even the stupid lord of the rings but waht is publisized is like the are made for children. I prefer human beings instead of cartoons.
