J. Hoberman of the Village Voice decried Apocalypto as “pure, amoral sensationalism,” prompting me to wonder when the Voice started criticizing films for their lack of morality (kind of a refreshing change-of-pace, actually).
Just assuming that Hoberman used the word "amoral" to characterize Apocolypto as being "morally wrong." He is using the wrong word. The word amoral refers to something that has nothing to do with morality; i.e., a cup of tea, sunshine, blood, etc. Shows how much he knows <_<
I will be going to see Apocalypto this week. I can't wait!
