Movie Reviews of 10,000 B.C. [Blu-ray]
Movie Review: IT'S A CAVE MAN MOVIE FOR PETE'S SAKE!
Summary: 4 Stars
If you went to this movie expecting to see a decent reinvention of the prehistory genre, filled with some imagination, a little more thought, better acting, more story line and less cheese than what you normally find in this genre, then you saw a great movie. For the foolish wonders thinking they somehow were sitting in Godfather I, II or whatever you equate whith classic alltime cinema, no wonder you were dissapointed! If you compare this movie with it's genre, it really is one of the best. It has plenty of natural humor withouth inane, whimsicle cheese that you normally get in these kind of movies, or many others for that matter. It IS well acted for what it is worth. It IS a fantasy movie afterall so suspension of belief is something you take with you before you even buy the ticket. There are plots and subplots enough to carry a CGI type of movie beyond just the spectical. Cammille Bell is stunning as well and worth the price of admission alone. For the few complaining, what did you really think you were going to see? It's a terrific movie for what it is.Movie Review: Good, clean fantasy/sci fi! bring it!
Summary: 4 Stars
I think it's sad that people are trashing this movie for it not being "historically accurate" Last I checked, we didn't have a lot of history material that was written during this time period. The only people who would have an issue with this would be those that think evolution is true as well as those who don't understand that fantasy/sci-fi movies aren't suppose to be historically accurate **spoiler - like the Atlanteans starting the pyramids before the Egyptians got there** who cares....it was a funny twist.
To sum this movie up. It's great. Good CGI creatures/animals. Awesome scenery, good acting, and a decent story if you go into it knowing it's not high action and more of a drama/adventure. Remember that evolution is a THEORY and that movies are for ENTERTAINMENT and you'll enjoy this.
Movie Review: A story about cave men... not prehistoric creatures!
Summary: 4 Stars
10,000 BC is an entertaining story about cave men, travelling and facing multiple situations. If you don't expect more than that it does the job. The story could have been more sophisticated, but the rich landscapes and the detailed CG prehistoric creatures make it quite believeable. The trailer was a bit misleading as it puts the emphasis on the creatures, whereas they have a rather minority role in this story.
I'd recommend it on Blu-ray rather than DVD if you watch it over a large enough screen, as it is mostly a visual story. There are epic battle scenes (an Emmerich speciality), but I think the movie goes beyond that.
Also there are more efficient top notch image blu-rays (Planet Earth series, Pixars, etc.).
Don't set your expectations too high and you'll enjoy it!
Movie Review: Not a National Geographic masterpiece....but what is?
Summary: 4 Stars
It seems the previews of this film made the viewers think they where going to see a National Geographic masterpiece....and granted if you went in thinking this you probably left disappointed. This film has great backdrops and spectacular vistas. The acting is....well, the less said the better, probably closer to Fred and Barney than Pacino and De Niro....but for what the film was trying for, I say they pulled it off. I'd also recommend
300 [Blu-ray]
and when available
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull [Blu-ray]
Movie Review: A Happier Place
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie is just one step up better than Mel Gibson's Apocalypto IMO, due to the fact that it seems more epic and less graphic and intense (read: depressing) The cinematography is brilliant, the script is moderately well written even with the many flaws and bloopers that come with a movie of this proportion it is a good watch. It looks fantastic in Blu-Ray, and that's the reason I got it. If you're someone looking to collect movies of this genre then get it, otherwise skip it for the DVD version or pick up Planet Earth on Blu-Ray.
