Apocalypto

[Headless Thompson Gunner]

I thought the violence in Apocalpyto was stylized quite well.  The style, in this case, would be unflinchingly blunt reality.

Maybe some folks don't like to see it.  I can understand that.  It was quite brutal.  But I do think that movie presented at least a reasonable depiction of what life can be like in a time and place like that.

Clearly you've never actually seen a truly violent film. :D

I suggest trying anything with Takeshi Kitano in it - they're great films, they have great acting, but they are so violent (not always in the sheer amount of dead people on-screen, but in the way the violence is presented), you will only find Gibson tame afterwards.
