Apocalypto

Oddly enough, if he were present on screen ... I would be far less likely to want to see this film. He's certainly repugant to me, and I don't want to look at him.

Behind the scenes, he's just like any one of a million poor causes I give my money to for my own pleasure and survival.

One word about the descendents of the Maya objecting to their ancestors' portrayal in the film: Give me a frelling break!

I'm really sick and tired of that kind of thing. Ever since a bunch of whiney Arabs actually got Disney to edit out the lyric "they cut off your ear if they don't like your face" from Aladdin, I have zero tolerance for hysterical historical revisionism from thousand-year-later progeny. Get.Over.It. Some of your revered ancestors were barbarians. Deal.
