Ten yeas after Apocalypto and the tabloid scandals that could have ruined his career, Gibson is back and hoping to be in Hollywood's good graces again. Based on David Rooney's review for The Hollywood Reporter, it looks like Gibson picked up where he left of.
"Themes of courage, patriotism, faith and unwavering adherence to personal beliefs have been a constant through Gibson's directing projects, as has a fascination with bloodshed and gore," Rooney wrote. "Those qualities serve this powerful true story of heroism without violence extremely well, overcoming its occasional cliched battle-movie tropes to provide stirring drama." (Getty)
