Thank God it's Friday
By Behindwoods News Bureau.
July 06, 2007
Three films are hitting the Chennai theatres this Friday. Two hindi movies and one in Yucatec Maya language(of course with subtitles). Bombay to Goa a out and out comedy flick which is acted by laughter challenge contestants. Who knows this can turn out to be another Bheja fry. And the second Hindi release is a fantasy prone kid movie about Lord Ganesha.
Apocalypto
After the success of Hanuman many kid movie are being experimented and My friend Ganesha is on the same lines but it also incorporates live action too. And the third movie is the Mel Gibson action thriller, Apocalypto.

Behindwood’s choice of the week

Apocalypto- the movie is set many years in the past when the Mayakkan tribes were ruling the Country. The movie is about a small tribe in a forest tormented by the neighbouring tribe as a part of their ritual to get free from the drought. The hero Jaguar Paw gets prisoned but not before safe keeping his Pregnant wife and his son. The hero then escapes from their clutches but not before killing the son of the Neighboring tribe’s General. What follows may be described as one of the best running chase sequence ever to be seen in cinema history. Will Jaguar paw be successful in getting united with his wife forms the rest of this thrilling movie.

A man tears open a man alive and rips off his heart and then slashes his head. Do you feel like puking after reading this? Then this definitely is not for you. The movie is filled with such graphic violence. Definitely the censors would have had a tough time with editing this movie to be suitable for Indian audience. But if you want to see an action movie with unbelievable chase sequence with breath taking camera work this movie never to be missed. And forgot to mention that the movie is not in English but the original language of the Mayyan’s Yucatec Maya. But there are subtitles and the tamil dubbed version is also out.

One of the minus of the movie is that, the movie was released on December 2006 in US (it did not actually set the box office on fire) and there is a big chance that movie fanatics would have seen the movie in DVD. But I personally will suggest you to see the movie in the big screen.
