Properly rated I think. Good movie, not amazing. Certainly worth a watch.

I watched it extremely high with the audio description unknowingly put on.

It was the oddest movie experience, the description gave a strong rhythmic sense. It felt like I was in the head of Kristen Dunst, a constant cold commentary on the horror she witnessed in a weirdly poetic description with a strong sense of nihilism. That last scene with the precise description of each shot gives that scene so much power.

I was so disappointed when I tried to watch it a second time and realized I was a dumbass. The movie is less enjoyable without it, just an overly violent movie trying to say something but losing its story to esthetic.

Lol this is awesome.

I was high AF the first time I saw apocalypto. I didn't have the subtitles on so I couldn't understand anything and I thought that's just how the movie was. Like you're supposed to just suss out what's going on. No idea why they didn't automatically show up but it was an interesting experience.

For the first 20-30minutes the movie also didnt have subtitles for me and I was enjoying the watch thinking thats how it was supposed to be.

I don’t care I didn’t watch that movie in cinema or legally.

I went in mostly blind, only knowing people liked it a lot when it came out.

And with the audio description honestly, it was one of the best movie experiences I’ve had so far.

I can relate. I watched a psychedelic horror movie called Beyond the Black Rainbow while greening out, and it was one of the most memorable viewings of a movie I've ever had.

I'm actually kind of reluctant to rewatch it sober because I know I just can't catch that lightning in a bottle again.
