Gibson deserves mad credit for choosing this setting to explore; using real languages; indigenous casting; going all-out on the cinematography. That was fun! You guys are like a comedy team, and you don't even know when you're being funny. Nice one!
This movie is mad inaccurate. Wouldn't give him any credit on that front.
@@fernymina8731 "Gibson wanted an indigenous cast for the project, so the filmmakers found people from the Yucatan, Mexico City, Oaxaca, Xalapa, Veracruz and other spots. Two of the cast members are from the United States, three are from Canada and the rest hail from Central America."
So pretty much most of them?
@@guts1258 yeah all he had to do was change the mayans to the aztecs and then it would have been historically accurate. The two groups had a similar aesthetic anyway and both lived in the same region give or take a few hundred miles.
@@guts1258 You must be a history major
Fun fact: Jaguars are considered the most lethal of all the large cats
Fun fact: the little girl who prophecized their downfall did the scene in ONE take. I'm sure the made her do more than one, but they used the first take. So, it still counts as one. Youngest best actress I ever saw.
It looks like she would been trying that part for months to make that part... she must been high on lsd or mushrooms🍄🍄
Fun fact: I watched this movie on shrooms. Commence the worst trip ever.
From what I heard is that the little girl who prophesied is not an actor. She was there as an "extra" but they needed a child to run those lines.....they picked her and she was "fabulous".
Fun fact: she also plays the mummy in the new 'the mummy' movie
"That still only counts as one!"
Unfortunately, because Gibson's been practically blacklisted in Hollywood, this freaking masterpiece of a film has been overlooked and forgotten. It needs more attention.
indeed, a rather unfortunate case of 'in vino veritas'
unfortunate is a wild statement to make over what he did lmao
@@reeferrick2635 Gibson is based
Being blacklisted by Hollywood is a badge of honor tbh.
@@tarael86 ❤
Ash when he saw the little girl with the disease: "Oh, poor girl"
Ash when the little girl starts talking creepy: "Omg kick her"
lol
I‘m Venezuelan, the ants being used to close the wounds are real. The jungles of south america have different size of ants and some are HUGE. The animal they killed in the beginning was a tapir not a ant eater :)
I love how the enemies aknowledge that the prophecies of the little girl are coming true and that the gods are turning against them, slowly filling them up with fear. „He who darkens the sun“ (eclipse happening as he was about to be sacrificed), „he who brings the jaguar“. Well he literally brought the jaguar. Jaguars were sacred animals for them and you can hear one of them in fear, trying to apologize to their deity for killing one of it‘s son‘s (jaguar). This is a really cool movie and the soundtrack is amazing!
also there was an episode of duel survival where idk if it was cody or joe but they did the exact same thing and it was really cool! it had to be bug leaf cutters tho so they can do the death lock when u rip the body away
Yeah, my class and I went to Florianipolis for last year's vacation and the ants in Brazil were super big.
My dad told me that using the ants was often better than stitches.

Hannah absolutely nailed it on the head; the sacrifices were purely spectacle to manipulate the masses. The Mayans were so advanced that they could actually predict with great accuracy when solar eclipses were to occur so they made sure their sacrificial ceremony coincided with such an event.
These weren't the Mayas. They are the Aztecs. Far less sophisticated.
@@plmng7294 no, it’s the Mayans, although it does offer a distorted view of their civilization seeing as how the age depicted in the movie ended about 600 years prior to the movie’s setting. I
It's neither, the architecture and culture resembles the Mayans, but the Mayans were long gone before Cortez landed on the beaches of America.
The Azteca were the ones who met the Conquistadors.
But this is an amalgamation of the two for story purposes.
@@gumy3939 dude, look up the production of this movie. Gibson and the other writer debated on between featuring the Aztecs or Mayans and later settled on the Maya because of their high sophistication and eventual downfall. They then spent time researching Mayan culture and then brought in an expert on the Maya language to serve as an on-set advisor. They also brought in archaeologists and professors who were experts on the Maya and spent time at Maya ruins so they could accurately depict their architecture. Even Jaguar Paw’s wife’s tattoo is Mayan; it’s a horizontal band with two dots above which was the symbol for the number “7”.
The Maya experienced several periods and the civilization persisted for quite a long time after their technological peak, before the full-blown collapse. Those who have studied the Mayans note that construction and upkeep was more sophisticated the *older* it appeared, rather than newer. It is likely that by the end, leaders of the sort being portrayed barely understood what the more advanced ancient Mayans left them, beyond that the calendars predicted celestial movements.
One of the BEST Movies ever made. That final scene, totally flips the table...The Mayans were top dog for a long time, until a bigger badder dog came along....
Yea but that bigger badder dog stoped these massive satanic human sacrifices they did to theire own people.
Spot on
Who else was laughing so hard 😂 they are a great duo reactors
Symbolism…
Her saying she’d request the general manager was hilarious 😂
@@solrosenberg4529Hannah is hilarious lol. My older sister is named Hannah too and she’s comedy as well lmao.
I was in Mexico in 2006 and was looking forward to visiting the pyramid temples where this shit went down for real, all access was denied to area due to there being storms and also a feature film being shot. A mini bus full of people went down to the location to see if we could catch a glimpse of anything and low and behold we see Mel Gibson and everyone went nuts, as it went quiet and he was walking away I screamed FREEDOMMmMm at the top of my voice, he spun round laughing his head off and walked all the way back over right up to us and asked who the heck was that, aye it was me in a put on Scottish accent and he proceeded to shake my hand sign my t shirt and had a chat for a good 15 minutes, he apologised for having the placed closed down for filming and arranged that the following day we would be allowed in after 6pm just as long as no pictures where taken of things that were props and set stuff. The man had the hairiest hands and wrists I’ve ever seen
how cool!! 😁
Based Hairy Arms !!
FFFFFFRRRRRRRREEEEEEEDOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Haha nice
Lol they did not shoot this film anywhere near the actual pyramids and the scenes with the pyramids were sets built from the ground up
bruh when the Europeans showed up and she said pirates I died laughing. Great reaction from you too as always
Yes, fortunately the guy is there to bring some culture, but I don't want to be derogatory.
Did she actually say pirates? Omg that´s hilarious. I mean I would be also ignorant about their country/continennt/culture of course. But it´s still fucking hilarious lmao
You must be american.
First of all it's not "the europeans"
Europe is not a country or a people, it's a continent of 44 nations ethnicities and cultures.
I'm pretty sure those weren't the Bulgarians.
@@FriendlyCroock a lot of people from around the world think Europe is a country and that’s why many say “I’m going to europe “ or “my homeland is europe” but WHICH european country
@@FriendlyCroock why does the white girl think they are pirates ?
Seeing the Spanish at the end of the movie was really cool. They had amazing ships during that time period, and they look so impressive and beautiful
This movie was totally not about Europeans and you geek over the 5secs of Europeans , go watch pirates of the carabeans if you want to simp over European ships
@@deiselnoe1 No need to get triggered kid, I liked seeing the ships.
@@deiselnoe1Jesus Christ, what are you getting triggered for? You have no idea what other comments this person made "geeking out" over anything else.
In the context of the setting, where there is no modern technology, it must have been crazy for the main characters to suddenly see ships, and not have any idea what they were. The wife even acknowledged that. It must have been jarring. Also, the ships are symbolic for the fall of this civilization, and a "new beginning" which is what Jaguar alludes to. "The new world" is synonymous with Europeons. So, while it is a tiny part of the movie, the implications are large, because the Mayans do eventually disappear.
The Jaguar was also a tiny part of the movie, but the symbolism was meaningful. Would you have gotten upset if someone acknowledged the jaguar, or did the association with Europeans make you mad.
You need to chill the f out.
@@deiselnoe1What is your beef with Europeans? Are you mad your cannibal ancestor lost against them? 😂
Hannah: Is there an Apocalypto 2? Yeah. You are living it.
This continues to show how Gibson is great as a director. A lot of these actors were unknowns and they’re phenomenal.
Pretty sure they were real indigenous peoples, not actors.
@@XxAverageJoexX no, the one bad guy, who’s son was killed near the end, has been in stuff. Others have too.
Except for a couple of them, NONE of these were professional actors, but people Gibson recruited from workplaces. The main character (the actor) was laying roofs when Gibson discoveted him. So an entire cast of non-actors.
@@etme1000 doesn't take long to do a bit of research n know alot of them are American actors alongside Spanish actors. The rest were athletes they needed for the physical work.
Mel really is underrated as a director. Hacksaw Ridge was fantastic and I really am looking forward to his new movie.
Love him or hate him, Mel Gibson is one HECK of a director. Great reaction to this classic film. 👍🏿
"Hate him"... who? Pharisees?
Nobody hates Mel Gibson.. The dude was black listed because he spoke out about the things happening in Hollywood. That was way back. Really fucking sad that all these years he was getting fucked by fake news etc.
@@haissem8 Oksana Grigorieva
I watched this when I was 9 by accident. I was looking for my mom at a movie theatre and I walked in right before the first sacrifice, I was TERRIFIED. A lady in front of me was legit sobbing omg I left after that head roll POV. Traumatizing.
Also, you guys are so funny unintentionally and intentionally, I was dying. Made for a better experience since this movie still scares me to this day lmfao
Hahaha I would’ve never slept as a kid 😂 you’re s legend, thank you Elle for your beautiful comment 😊
I knew this movie since high school (about 20years ago 😂) , my father bought the dvd, and he watched this movie almost every night cause he said it's a masterpiece...
Ash: "He's fisting him!"
Hannah: "He's NOT fisting him!"
Lol I enjoyed watching your reaction to this incredible film. You both made me laugh and giggle.
😅😅😅😅😅
7 goats, 2 camels…and a grapefruit. Bruh you just made my day with that. It cracked me up 😂
Hahaha yessssss to this!!
Man my grandpa is from Jalisco Mexico so he’s more closer to Aztec but this takes place in Yucatán. A lot of people don’t realize the rituals these people did. They also were involved in cannibalism and drinking blood. Crazy shit.
Hannah, they are 100% ants, they are a species of Americas Army Ant, the ones with the massive mandibles (jaws) are the soldiers forms, that protect the smaller worker forms.
You two are SO FREAKING FUNNY! Your commentary was hilarious! I was DYING! Great reaction!!!
Thank you so much you legend, proud to have you on the channel ❤️
29:03 Okay, that was genuine comedy. I love how both of you are in total agreement over the fact that you wouldn't get along in a stressful situation and would blame the other.
😂😂 “If YOU weren’t such a deep sleeper!” Comedy gold right there
giant ants are used as "stitches" for wounds, due to how big they are, their mandibles ("jaws") are able to clench/pinch together tight enough to hold the sides of the skin of a wound together, and the mandibles remain in a "lock jaw", after you pinch/rip off its body from its head, leaving those giant ants heads "stitching" up the wound, until its healed/repaired up, the ancient "stitches" used by peoples who had the giant ants in their countries
5:45 Hannah has the BEST reactions! This is going to be a long & great reaction. When Ash starts her going she looks like she knows what's going to start happening & almost looks panicked 😂
That shit had me dying!🤣
@@Lerium 😂 I think it was Insidious that I saw her on a gagging roll first but it had me crying 🤣
I almost wet myself laughing xD
"OMG pirates!" lol I wonder how limited a knowledge of the world some people have.
The characters gagged and hit ash for it lol 😆
The whole scene with Hannah and the testicles was just incredible. She's so empathetic that if someone else starts gagging she will just absolutely lose it.
Okay you definitely earned my subscription after that intro 😂😂😂 I thought I clicked the wrong video man
This is a great movie. Very under appreciated hidden gem. Mel Gibson is a genius. Keep you the great work. Aloha
I love how throughout the chase you can see the fear slowly creep into the people chasing him. And how it did just what his dad was saying and tainting their heart and minds.
I remember my parents brought the whole family including little old 4 or 6 year old me to go watch this movie in theaters.
Honestly this movie is a classic 😎👍
LMAO , no matter how many times I come back and watch this , Hanna puking and Ash trolling her like a maniac never gets old , it's hilarious 😆😆.
This is a incredible film. Equally beautiful and horrific. Regardless of how you feel about Mel Gibson as a person, he is one hell of a Director.
Mel is a great guy.
I like Mel.
@@brianmcgarry1632 I'm Black and I think Mel Gibson is hilarious and awesome
Mel is a wonderful man. Don’t believe the liberal media, which lies about almost everything

The human sacrifices presented here were not simply a method to control the people. They were also thought to appease the Mayan Gods. As I understand it most archeologists do not fully understand the full meaning of these sacrifices, but never-the-less they did occur. The Mayans were not the only tribe to do this. The Aztecs further north had their own human sacrifices. To the Spanish Conquistadors the Aztec people were seen as depraved!
Not only the Conquistadors but many other South American tribes who had for years been victimized by the Aztecs. They gladly teamed up with the Conquistadors to take down the Aztec empire.
Well, it is implied that the priest and king knew that the solar eclipse was about to occur. And so, they arranged this event to make it look like the gods would "answer" them. I think, with the whole theme of "fear", Mel Gibson was making a statement on civilization - about how rulers always rule via fear, spectacle, and inside knowledge.
@@maaziy_ghaziyIYI Jesus is not considered half man half God, he is considered to be God himself.
Its hard to explain in a youtube comment but Jesus is an aspect of the triumvirate, the Father, the Son and the Holy spirit.
The idea of Jesus taking on all the sins of mankind and sacrificing himself does reflect Jewish tradition which used to put their local village's sins upon a goat and sacrifice it, its where we get the term "scape goat" from
The maya didn't sacrifice like the mexica
@@maaziy_ghaziyIYI they recently found a bunch of kids sacrificed in South America from antiquity.
This had me in tears. Two nights in a row now you two have honestly killed me with laughter.
Ash killed me with his 7 goats, 2 camels, and a grapefruit 😂😭.
Apocalypto is a Greek word which literally translates to “I unveil”. Jaguar paw unveils the sun, the forces of the jungle, and the European invaders. Most importantly he unveils his true self when he sheds his own fear
indeed. this is why Apocalypse is always framed as The End; because it is, for those at the top of the pyramid. the Mayan empire died, but the people live on to this day. the greatest sin is fear
Awesome, growing up I always thought this film was like universally loved by Mexicans because it was made by Mexicans, it was crazy and super cool finding out it was Mel Gibson behind it. I’m 20 years old and everytime I bring up apocalypto to my fellow Latinos I make sure to bring up the fact that Mel Gibson made it. Apocalypto is huge amongst us lol, it’s like one of the movies we all grew up watching. At least that’s what I’ve noticed here in Los Angeles
In mexico this is sort like a 50/50, some say its a really cool movie and like the action, some other say its a racist movie that tries to portray mexicans as savages and usually use the "historical innacuracies" argument to justify that opinion.
Another movie that has this 50/50 split is Sicario (both of them) with the "every mexican must be a narco" trope. I personally think its a great action movie.
It's an extremely historically inaccurate movie. Gibson did a good job at making it a good and thrilling picture but it's not accurate to the period or Mayan people.
What about Blood In Blood Out, primo?
@@Mr.Sidenote I actually never saw it, a lot of people around me did though. I seen some clips here and there on UA-cam, it kinda has terrible acting holmes
@@bryanguerrero1067 "Elementary, my dear Watson."
You trying not to laugh at the start was killing me 😂🤣 10/10
You two are hilarious ! the first 10mins of this video had me laughing non stop " he's got that jungle STD" destroyed me.
Being a native american.. Me and my uncles love this movie. Jus a random fact there is a tribe that do a ritual that's close similar to native american involving praying to the sun god
That ASMR intro has me in TEARS 😭😂
Thrilled you two finally watched this brutal & beautiful MASTERPIECE!!! The animal they chased in the beginning is a Tapir, I believe.
Ha ha ha , it was more exciting when they were chasing an anteater :)
I just got to your channel yesterday...... Ash and Hannah..... you both are just fawking adorable 😂 A big thanks from germany. Keep on going guys 🤘
Glad to have you on the channel mate, appreciate you ❤️
I love your interactions together. You're both hilarious. Extra props to Hannah for playing ball and not giving up. You're amazing even when you're gagging.
Esta basada en la cultura maya del Mexico prehispanico. Todo el idioma que usan es lenguaje maya original.
Muy violenta pero realista en cuanto a la historia de Mexico antes de la conquista española.
Disfrute mucho su reaccion.
Saludos
Do you feel there is Aztec influence?
Si👍🏻
Con el problema de que el imperio maya se acabó unos 400 años antes de la llegada de los españoles.
Mel Gibson dijo: yo tengo otros datos
@@amandarose4469 It's weird because it set in the mayan empire, you can tell for the architecture, the dresses and lenguage, but the human sacrifices are an aztec thing, also the mayan apocalipto happened 400 years before the arrival of europeans.
It´s 7am, in an hour I´m driving to my chemotherapy and because of you I have a headache from laughing :D Thanks, that was brilliant :)
Mate making you laugh has made my day, I’m behind you my brother, win that battle for us, No fear!! Love you ❤️
Did my guy seriously just say "he's done it, she bit it off"😂😂
Such a masterpiece. Was absolutely stunned after watching it the first time. Mel Gibsons director work is incredible.
Also what a funny reaction, you are such a sweet duo! :D Als always, loved it so much!
"Seven goats, 2 camels... and a grapefruit!" *rofling on the floor* :DDDD
Blood was considered the food of the Gods, so blood was what we'd consider sacred.
Fun fact, the first Europeans who arrived to South America (who they assumed were Gods) were given bowls of blood as an offer of food, when the Europeans looked disgusted they were worried that they'd insulted Gods
Moral of the story: when offered a bowl of blood, just drink it. Don't insult your hosts.
Well, the Spanish brought their own religion (Christianity) where the whole religion revolves around the idea of eating the flesh and drinking the blood of their God. So kind of hypocrate to feel disqusted about the practises of the Mezomerican religious practises, eh?
@@blissfull_ignorance8454 Christians aren't known for their acceptance of other cultures tho tbf 😂
@@blissfull_ignorance8454 ya know, I've never thought of that, combine it with that they're believed white men were Gods who came to take their birthrite, kind of a coincidence isn't it?
@@blissfull_ignorance8454 It's not like it's just wine, and not literal blood, but sure, let's be dishonest and shit on people's religion for no reason other than being a prick.
You two are the definition of lightning trapped in a bottle! Another entertainingly amazing reaction! I almost didn’t watch because I haven’t seen this movie, but have come to realize I barely have interest watching anything without the both of you present! Keep them coming! This would be an absolute left turn, but a great action/comedy would be Team America, World Police! It’s non stop greatness, and I would do anything to watch you react to it. It’s made by the guys who created South Park and it’s like nothing you’ve seen before, I personally guarantee that! It’s pretty intense but worth it! Thanks!!🖤♥️
good suggestion!
Agreed! Should do Team America & Sausage Party!
She adds so much to Ash and grounds him.
I want to scratch my head at you watching reactions for movies that you've never seen...... Then I realized that I do that too but I do it for TV shows that I don't want to take the time out to watch. Like I've never actually watched a full episode of the boys..... I've just watched like 5 reactors reacting to every episode.
@@natecloe8535 I still doubt about reactors more generally. I am no film buff, but I've seen 80%-90% of the films most react to. You can't be a human and not have seen the majority of these films at some point in your life.
The deceit is acknowledged and hand-waved away, but maybe many people simply like the illusion?
That intro is everything. You two are such a laugh 😂
My gosh you two had me in stitches within 5mins,,,, this was gold this movie and you guys just made it into a comedy narrative, from NZ 🤣
“Well you’re scared of heights” the arguments between you are the best 🤣😂😂
Haha glad you enjoy them mate 😂 appreciate you
@@justtrustash 48:05 That never happend, the spaniards they mixtured with the natives, something that english did not. There was no slavery, I recomend to Read the Book of The Black Legend in England of Williams Maltby.

I suppose just to add more clarity to something someone already commented on, the Maya were literally the most advanced astronomers of the ancient world. Nobody rivaled their knowledge of the cosmos until Europeans invented the telescope. However, this knowledge was only held by societal elites. Most common folk were ignorant of it and that ignorance was exploited by the elite like in the way portrayed in this movie.
I'll also point out that the Maya at no time in history ever did any kind of mass sacrificial ceremony as depicted in this film.
They did practice human sacrifice occasionally, but they only did that with societal elites. They never went out to rural areas to kidnap hunters and farmers for sacrificing. You had to be important otherwise the gods won't value the sacrifice and usually this was the end result of a ceremonial war between different Mayan city states. Whatever leadership was out there representing his city state knew that if he lost the ceremonial war, he was getting sacrificed. It was actually regarded as a great honor. Outside that context, their blood offering rituals didn't require the person to die.
The Aztec on the other hand... well that's whole other story let's just say.
To use an Ancient Mayan word .... Correctamundo!
The ancient nightsky was a classroom for cultures around the globe the Bortle ( Darkness) Scale was a 9 ( highest) I bet the Galaxies , The Milky Way ,The Constellations , and the different meteor showers -Pleiades , the Aurora Borealis, Shooting Stars and yes even the UFO's were probably spectacular sights.
That being said the Chinese Astrologers were just as advanced as the Mayans some of their records of Celestial happenings go back 5000 years .
@@NATIVESUNSETS65 Yeah no. The Chinese had the weakest understanding of the cosmos in the ancient world. The Maya accurately calculated celestial movements to a precision and accuracy that was only achieved by another culture after the telescope was invented. The Maya were even aware that the night sky over a long enough period of time will change whereas every other culture assumed it was eternally static.
Of the ancient world? Nah. The Egyptians were far more advanced
@@johanstinson Most of their understanding came from the Mesopotamians who, yes, had a firm understanding of the heavens, but it still wasn't quite as good as the Maya's. The Mesopotamians and by extension the Egyptians (Greeks, Romans, Persians, Arabs and Indians as well) are a close second though.
You both are the purest form of what a man and a woman should be, while being together, god bless you both
Love this comment! Appreciate you ❤️
Of course someone brings politics into a wholesome relationship
"Omg it's pirates"☠️🤣🤣🤣
in Africa to this day, the indigenous tribes still use biting ants to close wounds like stitches. the ant's jaws snap together after biting so a person can then pinch the body off the ant and still have it's jaws closing your skin together. they used this in WWII but only bc ppl have been doing it since, well, before this movie's timeline :)
In addition to "The Patriot" and "Apocalypto" there was another movie I really liked Ash "We Were Soldiers" Mel Gibson also played in this movie as well its a war film.
reality was probably more harsh
Mayans and Aztecs were brutal, so much that almost every tribe in the region were happy to supply Spanish conquistadores with all the food and information possible to destroy their empires
not that it was that hard, their empires were on political ruin already because of the tyrannical ways they had, not to mention the plagues
ps. jaguars are the second biggest feline in the world, they have one the strongest bites in the world, absolutely destructive.
Conquest was alie
What the hell are you talking about Tenochtitlan was bigger than London at the time of it was conquest, the Aztec were at the high of their power but they were not prepare por de conquistadores, it is pretty much like aliens get down on Washington killing people how can you defend against that. Also smallpox was brought here by the Spanish it killed more than half of the Aztec population the Spanish knew this and use it was biological weapon during the war.
@@FERNANDOFLORES-wk8ju nope, Tenochtitlan was at the middle of an uprising, at the brink of a civil war, and they were also being ravished by a plague
The delivery of "omg it's pirates," is one of the funniest things I've ever heard in my life.
46:03 when she says I feel like I'm a Warrior, was the best part. Lol
"They're not well," 😂 perfect reaction from Hannah to the utter madness in that city. This is a brilliant film. I bet you two would really enjoy watching Terence Malik's "The New World." It's a beautiful film about early colonial North America, framed around the character of Pocahontas, starring Colin Farrell as John Smith, and Clive Owen as Sir Walter Raleigh. The cinematography and the audio are very atmospheric, and fully immerse you into the time and place. Keep up the good work guys, and keep having fun!
People who don't argue don't communicate. These two are fantastic.
"He needs some therapy that one "😂😂😂 omg ,I almost died hahahaha
That was the best opening scene of you two ever! Thank you for that.
Nice reaction! The first minutes I laughed out loud 🤣
Another good Mel Gibson movie is "We were soldiers". The story is about the war in Vietnam. Greetings from Germany! 🤗
Cheers my brother ❤️
When you know a lil bit about history and geography, these type of movies hit different..
I can relate with this young man.
Ant: "Hello!"
Hannah: "You're not an ant."
Ant: 😭
48:24 lol she's so funny." U just gonna stare at me love"lol.
Jesus......Christ. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that opening. I've NEVER laughed that hard at a reaction video ever. Not for any comedy movie, fail video, comedian, or song reaction.
Shit......I'm sure I've only laughed that hard a handful of times in my life. It just hit my funny bone perfectly today. FANTASTIC JOB!!
Also, This movie was so unexpectedly good. I knew I would like it because I'm a big Gibson fan. I didn't know that I would love it. I think It showcases his storytelling ability that He is also the guy that directed the Passion of the Christ.
I love watching you both react to movies. Perfect chemistry.
Appreciate you mate ❤️
OMG! I really enjoyed watching you guys react to this epic movie. You made me laugh through out the whole thing.

I hope for "Dune" or "Bladerunner 2049" one day, they both are gorgeous on a big screen.
The batman
Yea, medieval Mexico was pretty brutal.
But still, the spanish conquest between 1519-1521 is probably one the most epic story in history.
It was way beyond brutal the Aztecs were offering sacrifices and burning Blood as an oblation to a
" Winged Serpent " quetzalcoatl .The Mayans were doing the same for Kukulkan - Their serpent god
and his lesser gods of the underworld. There's a connection between the civilizations around the world who worship Serpent and Dragon gods and it's very brutal indeed.

All the civilizations who worshiped Serpents and Dragons have been eliminated for a reason . Use the technology at your finger tips to find the answer why . It's that simple .
I 100% believe Hannah was the one farting, you can see the embarrassed guilt mixed with a teeny bit of glee in her expressions 🤣
This movie is MADLY underrated. It's unbelievably good. The acting, the script, score, make-up, cinematography, direction - everything. It's a classic.
Underrated? Its one of the best movies of all Time...bro.
I legit believe it's because of Mel Gibson and political temperature at the time
You two are hilarious! I almost peed during the first two minutes with Ash's face. This is one of my top 5 movies! 1-That animal was a Tapir, cousin of the pig. Still eaten to this day. 2-Stop blaming your farts on each other...lolol...own up!! I dreamt for months I was running alongside Jaguar Paw...this is a film that truly lingers in your mind.
Oiiii I swear she farted three times in this reaction mine are deadly and she would gag way worse than she did in this reaction 😂 mad love to you mate, thank you for watching ❤️
This might be the best reaction of all time. But don't try to outdo it. You might feel temptation to start faking it. Whatever you two do, keep it real. But yeah bru you do talk over her a little bit once on a while, not always though.
@@mustafafh4402 Maybe so, but they weren't talking about that, whereas they WERE talking about HIM talking over HER. So YOU'RE the one who needs to let them have their peace, because if they're talking about it, then they want us talking about it too. So go away.
@@mustafafh4402 Genius, I'm not the one who is going on a comment section of a video and criticizing people for posting comments about the video.
Hannah is so precious! That guess-the-sound-of-my-fart game that they play sounds hilarious. 🤣
Set in Yucatan, Mexico, in the early 16th century, Apocalypto portrays the hero's journey of a young man named Jaguar Claw, a hunter from late Mesoamerica, and his tribemates who are captured by an invading force. Following the devastation of their village, they are taken on a dangerous journey to a Mayan city for human sacrifice at a time when the Mayan civilization is in decline. The film was a box office success, grossing more than $120 million worldwide, and received mostly positive reviews, which praised Gibson's direction, Dean Semler's cinematography, and the cast's performances, although it was criticized. representation of the Mayan civilization and historical accuracy
The Spanish nor anyone else would have conquered us, if it had not been for the fact that several indigenous groups helped them conquer the empire of our region at that time. I'm not saying it's bad, nor good. only that's why they were able to conquer. There were not enough Spaniards to be able to defeat the empire of that time alone.
This is considered one of the most immersive movie of all times. It is not historical accurate anyway, but at least is not a documentary.
And don't worry about mayans (aztecs really) for the arrival of europeans. Spanish did not behave worse with them than they with their neighbours. Most of them finally died by sickness that spanish brought from europe.
The Little girl ( Curadora ) who told them the prophecy of Jaguar Paw had Smallpox , so the europeans had already made contact. The Spaniards they see at the end is Not Cortes .
I was so excited for this reaction because I am from Guatemala and Mayan descendant.
Mayans occupied Guatemala in central America. They expanded to the south into El Salvador and north into Mexico.
That intro was hilarious😂😂😂😂. I loved it! #Hash
Paola you legend! Thank you for always showing love!
ok this is only my 2nd time watching yall 2 and im addicted. i love yall already! 🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂
Omg i barely see people react tot his movie! I really hope your reaction starts a trend throughout the community to react to this
Well if Im not mistaken these are AZtecs in central Mexico from 14th to 16th century , Mayans are a much older (about 2000 years) civilization which was already long gone by the time Europeans rediscovered Americas. Also this Human Sacrifice thing is more a AZTEC thing. Remember this is 14th -16th centuries and this type of Sacrifice in mass scale was Somewhat unique. I am Sri Lankan Sinhalese..., and in our culture also there was savage punishments (32 ways of torture) up until 1815 before brits abolished the old legal system. But even though all that almost demonic torture...was all for Criminals and public enemies...not for normal folk... With Aztecs it was all about pleasing the GODs by sacrificing friend and foe alike..(if it came it it)..they even sacrificed Europeans mate....And this is the same culture now Mexican Gangs/Cartels like AZTECO follow...unfortunately.
The peak of the Mayan civilization was gone by the time of the Spanish conquistadors, but they weren't long gone. The Mayans had the longest resistance to the Spanish than any other native civilization.
I’m Mexicano and the brutal cartel violence didn’t start till 2006 when Calderon sent the military after the cartels. It has nothing to do our ancestors.
@@blanketstarry7725 the Spaniards never defeated nobody!! Only in books 📚 that where written in a different language!! The Spaniards never defeated the mapuche the yaqui the chichimecca the apache etc Mexicans are not white but mexica tribe aka Aztecs!!! Mexico has no uropean king either lol you dnt see millions of white ppl in Mexico !!! Nothing but dark skinned black haired indigenous people
@@BigFists2024 Spaniards certainly did defeat much of central and South America, with the help of native allies. Mexicans (Mestizo) are on average 40-45% European ancestry, mostly Spanish. And Mexicans (their indigenous portion) are mostly NOT Aztec.
@@BigFists2024 Uh tf are you talking about. About half the population in mexico is mixed with native and spaniard. Especially once you hit northern mexico you'll find millions of people with colored eyes, light skin, red and blonde hair.
I love the ending when the Spaniards showed up.
The brutal Aztecs didnt know what was in their future,and that future was well deserved.
Yea because the Aztecs won!!! The mexica aka Aztecs defeated the Spaniards!!! It was easy to write a book in a different language and only the rich Spanish could read them comic books 📚!!! You dnt see millions of white Europeans in Mexico lol just dark skinned black haired indigenous ppl !! If the Spaniards won where is the fkg king at Ahahahahah the Spaniards didn’t defeat the mapuche the chichimecas the yaqui the mexica the apache’ or the other tribes plus there’s millions of Mayans still here !!! Only racist simps believe in white supremacy!! USA teaches evolution lol and so you believe lol you dnt question anything like a simp !! A future never stolen Ahahahahah is a will deserved future indeed
The future of the colonizers sons is dark indeed and yes very well deserved 😡
Disease was about to arrive
@@BigFists2024 every race are colonizers.
La pelicula fue basada en los mayas no en los aztecas. Y no conquistaron porque aun existen tradiciones ancestrales que se niegan a morir por el contrario la religion impuesta cada vez se ve mas deteriorada y volvemos a nuestras raices indigenas y prehispanicas
"He just threw a Mayan grenade" is one of the funniest things I have ever heard.
"the general manager" holy shit that was great
Great reaction as always. Hannah is awesome and so funny. If you are enjoying the Mel Gibson movies check out Passion of the Christ. Beautifully filmed, brutal, and will have Ash biting his fists to the bone. Look forward to the next reaction 👍
Yes Passion of the Christ should be your next Mel Gibson movie reaction.
Its a great movie but i don't think its a good version of the story for new people unfamiliar with the crucifixion.
a great piece of fiction based on a terribly written piece of fiction
Nahh
@@CapnLubeHandles careful with that edge you might cut yourself
Great reaction. I am one of those who recommended this movie several times - glad you took the recommendation!
However, if I may: you showed too little of the second part, when he is in his forrest - and especially the parts with his wife - who was EQUALLY the hero of this movie - just... differently! In fact, she is one of the most powerful female characters I have seen on film. This movie has two, parallel hero tales:
- one outside, kinetic, in the world - the male
- and one at the heart / hearth of the family - the female
...and the heroism of both is needed in order for them to survive, in the end, as a family.
For another powerful and unique movie I would recommend Signs, an M Night Shyamalan - Mel Gibson collaboration.
I love the chemistry between these two.
The guy who played the Mayan king was not even an actor. He was a construction worker that casting saw and said hey, wanna be king for a day?
Lol Ash the slow mo intro was dope 😂😂
this movie is anything but historical accurate but it doesn't matter since the story and costumes etc. suck you into their world.
What's inaccurate about it? I mean it's obviously fiction right. Not trolling you or anything as I'm no expert. Genuinely curious.
@@tragicdeyz2641 the innacuracies are more to do with the time periods more than with the events depicted themselves.
For example, sacrifices, mayan culture (mixed with aztecs) and the comquistadors are real things, but they compressed around 600 years of history in a couple of days in movie storytelling.
I'm not a historian either, but I like history and more so because its history of my country. Its quite the thing to hop on the car and drive for a couple hours to arrive to some prehispanic pyramids, and its awesome to be there.
The reception of this movie was really mixed here in mexico because half was like "ah yes cool movie with some historical themes" and the other we're like "this movie is racist trying to say we were all savages".
@@tragicdeyz2641 Well, not all of it is fiction. In Maya culture, war between tribes and sacrifices were very real. But, they exaggerated it a bit much not going to lie.
Bro knows exactly what he's doing with those gagging noises at 5:40 and we are all grateful for it hahahaha
This is 1 of the best films of all time. I never get tired of it and it is so original! Love Mel!
You two are absolutely hilarious together! 😂
My brother..honour to have you on the channel 👌🏾
