Movie Review: 10,000 bc
Summary: 4 Stars
the review for this movie us a bit under rated it was a enjoyable movieMovie Review: Gorgeous on Blu-Ray, Silly on Any Format
Summary: 3 Stars
Much of the negative criticism leveled at Roland Emmerich's "10,000 BC" is valid. The film is derivative of other (better) films including "The Searchers", "King Kong", "The Wizard of Oz" and dozens more; it's chock full of anachronisms and dubious history; and the story is at times unbearably cheesy, especially when the screenplay cheats the audience by using mysticism and magic to achieve contrived emotional effects (this is particularly true of the story's hokey happy ending).
And yet, despite these flaws, the film is not without its charms. For those viewers able to suspend logic and focus simply on its visual qualities, "10,000 BC" offers up some splendid special effects, gorgeous art direction and set decorations, and best of all, exquisite cinematography by Ueli Steiger that truly stimulates the imagination. I experienced the film on Blu-ray disc screened on a 60 inch 1080i monitor, and was so impressed by the lavishness of the production that I frequently forgot and forgave the vagaries of the screenplay. This is a movie that is perfect for those nights when you want to disengage your mind, relax with a bowl of popcorn, and simply pass two hours enjoying an inconsequential spectacle that requires a minimum amount of concentration. If you can appreciate it for what it is, and not be disappointed by what it isn't, you may very well get a kick out of "10,000 BC".
Movie Review: Its fiction and should be viewed as such. Not bad
Summary: 3 Stars
The movie is a lot better than i had though it would be, this is the same director that made 2012 and honestly i like this movie a lot better. Is it corny? Yes. Its in probably totally inaccurate in its portrayal of ancient man(if they existed) definitely. But it is one visually stunning and non boring movie to watch. There is never a dull moment as the son of a tribe hunter takes off in search of his girl friend who he was foretold to be so at the beginning. The best scenes are the hunting of the wully mammoths and the parts where the saber tooth tiger shows his face, after the young man saves him. Yes they speak broken English which if there were cave man i'm guessing they didn't have a language of there own. So its either make up a fake language with subtitles throughout or let them speak English, which i prefer instead. The story is flimsy but the journey is pretty exciting, also why the so called "four legged demon" people speak in a processed low electronic voice i have no clue, obviously because they think they aren't human. So yes its a decent movie that holds your attention, yet if you want something historically accurate your barking in the wrong cave, though if you want a fictional type journey like Lord Of The Rings this movie is just right for you.Movie Review: It's the Canadian Version
Summary: 3 Stars
I'm not sure if it affects the movie experience, or has anything to do with the low amount of special features, but the disc I got was the Canadian version. I know its not a big deal, but its not the version pictured, and the seller really should have communicated this. However, if you don't mind all the words on the box being subtitled in French, it's just fine.Movie Review: 10,000 BC - Do not go here for history as we believe it to be.
Summary: 3 Stars
10,000 BC was an entertaining film with good special effects, interesting but one dimensional charactors and questionable acting efforts. I would, however, rate it as a three star film and enjoyed the story despite its lack of fidelity with what our scientists believe about history as revealed to us through science.
