Description

From the director of Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow, the pre-historic epic 10,000 B.C. unveils a new day of adventure, a time when mammoths shake the earth and mystical spirits shape human fates. 10,000 BC is an eye-filling tale of the first hero, young hunter D'Leh who sets out on a bold trek to rescue his kidnapped beloved and fulfill his prophetic destiny. He faces an awesome saber-toothed tiger, crosses uncharted realms, forms an army, and uncovers an advanced but corrupt Lost Civilization. There, he leads a fight for liberation and becomes the champion of the time when legend began.

Quite frankly I regret having ever watched this movie. The landscape change alone made me feel if the director was trying to insult my intelligence, and it then got worse. If you know anthing about history or geography then I would recomend you not watch this.

Awful

Wow this is bad, the plot is ridiculous, the time period is just wrong (Im no historian but Im pretty sure the Pirymids were not built by enslaved Mamoth's and Cavemen) and terrible acting. If your planning to buy this you should stop and think "do I want to see a movie as stupid as one of those ancients with buff american's in furry carpets fighting Dinosours". Rubbish.

Yep ... It's rubbish.

I read the reviews that said it was not good but the trailer was great. A movie with such a great trailer can't possibly be that bad but, alas, this movie is woeful. What a monumental waste of resources this thing is. The plot steals heavily from other movies so there is a strong sense of déjà vu running right through.
Please don't pay money for this.

Definatly not what i thought the movie would be, the trailer makes it seem alot better than what it was.
in my opinion its only near the end when it gets interesting, theres alot worse movies but its not a good one either.
i would advise you to save your money.

Poor. After watchin the trailers, I expected an average film to say the least, however I did not expect it to be this poor. A few average scenes bump it up to a two star, but it just about scrapes it. I am a fan of this type of film, but this is an exception. The best I can say is that it has some good special effects.

well i'll start with what i thought were the good parts and then move onto the bad parts.
10,000 BC is a very interesting film in my opinion I would say its one of the greatest films at its time. it has some
outstanding special effects and some highly amusing sceens.
The only two bad things about this film would be that it goes on for a bit to long pluss for small viewers i wouldn't
expect them to get what is going on.

Similar storyline to apocalypto but less subtitles, could have been better but worth a watch if you like your ancient civ's and a bit of a battle, plenty of historical inaccuracies but the films not about that, just a bit of entertainment in my opinion, personally i would like to have seen more involvement from the saber tooths.

in 10000 BC i saw true love and friendship that are always ready for sacrifice, and i saw passionate fighting for freedom. men and women full of courage, fulfilling their duties towards their family and other loved ones.
it's one of these big stories that touch your heart and inspire you to live a fuller life yourself. asks questions about interracial dialogue, cultural differences and similarities, and the existence of fate. magical though simple - i really enjoyed it.
prepare yourself for a bit of predictability, some moralizing - in many ways this is a fairy tale.

10,000 BC... is probably when the film should have been released!

Had high hopes for this flick, but they were shattered like a opera singer's shriek near a glasshouse. It was almost like watching Old Testament T.V, action was good - but if only there was more. Don't waste your money, and your precious time watching a below par movie that never even comes close to a 'birdie' moment.

If you like the suspense of watching a long, perilous journey unfold, involving many pitfalls and hazards along the way, you'll love downloading this. It took 5 hours of stopping and starting to finally watch the film, which I might add, is not too bad either. Rent, don't buy, but be prepared to make a heroic effort.

Just Rubbish.

The film was a mixture of apocolypto and 300 but bad. The acting wasnt great, the story was thin and i think the picture is misleading. There was some good action seens but not many and they good of done alot better with the idea. I would recommend that you rent the film and not buy it if you are going to watch it.

One star for the Mammoths, and one for the Sabre-Tooth tiger - the stars of this film! However, as others have said here, there is no depth to the human characters and the acting is not strong enough, but then, there's so much an actor can do with this script? - it's pretty poor. The plot was reminiscent of Apocalypto as another reviewer has noted, but it would be unfair to compare the films (though I can really highly recommend the latter). If more attention was paid to the quality of the script, more convincing performances given, and a slightly more coherent world of 10,000 BC put-together (rather than this total mish-mash of cultures and creatures), this could have been so much better. It's so obvious this came from the same people who made Stargate - again, great ideas and references, but spoilt by script/acting, IMHO. Rent this if you have a couple of hours to kill, and you want some action/adventure - if you don't demand too much from the film, its just about worth a rental. All the best.

10,OOO years BC - seems a bit dated to me...

This awful film is a hodge-podge of bad CGI, awful dialogue and ropey story telling. To be fair, there are a few impressive shots involving mamoth stampedes but in general terms its "Cronk not like!" jerky pacing and terrible acting made me white with rage that I couldn't get my money back when I saw it in the cinema. Please, please don't buy or rent this film if you like movies.

Recycled story - just told in a different setting

While I spent the first three-quarters of the film finding it impossible to invest in the characters and noting every other minute that some of the dialogue was a bit wooden (both in its penning and delivery), by the end of the film I found myself really enjoying it. While the story is nothing original, its unique setting excuses that - though again you only forgive it until nearing the end of the film.
Once the characters reach the 'Mountains of the Gods' the film picks up and is the exhilarating movie I was hoping for from the start. The side story (side only because it was not essential) of the slave captor and his ‘witch’ is also a very interesting part of the plot. In fact it was the most original and satisfying – just a shame it was so peripheral.
I suppose I ought to acknowledge the look of the film. It’s good. But that’s pretty much a given if it is a high-budget film, so I can’t really say it is anything admirable.
Finally, the supernatural elements of the plot never felt very well justified and that annoyed me. So overall I suppose while it has its moments of glory, it’s just your average big-budget blockbuster flick that’s good for a few thrills. Take it or leave it, you may well feel as indifferent after watching it as I did. It did a good job of killing a couple of hours – but there are films of a similar nature out there that do it better.

Never mind the story, enjoy the special effects

The problem with this film is that the story doesn’t really work. You can’t engage with the main characters and you don’t really care what happens to them. They seem too lightweight and not fully developed. This is a pity because the film, in places, is visually stunning and could have been so much better.

yes, i thought it looks great, got excited because of the various old classics of similar titles but this was genuinely pants. Go buy a Ray Harryhausen film instead as the stop motion would be better than this.......and how did they build the pyramids??? oh yeah, of course, woolly mamoths did it. damn my eyes for watching it. glad i didnt taint my ipod with ths junk.

Not Bad. But Good? Maybe.

Independace Day and The Day After Tomorrow, two great movies by director Roland Emmerich. Sadly I don't think 10,000 BC is as good as either film. But hey I guess you can't have all successful films, not even if you're Stephen Spielberg.
Saying that though 10,000 BC isn't the worst film in the world and whilst it did have rather a strange opening and first half which I sat through thinking, "Hmm... is this a good film or a bad film... I'm not sure yet." The difficulty I found was telling the different people apart during the first half, because they all looked the same. This kind of put me off a bit since it meant I didn't recognise the main character very easily. Getting the bad out of the way there was one scene in the jungle which I didn't like simply because I couldn't see what was going on.
But now onto the good. The second half was much better and had a much different look to it aswell. I thought it was much more exciting and this is where I really got into the film. Whilst I was watching it though I did find it reminded me of the film Stargate (which it turns out Roland directed as well so I guess that ain't a coinsidence), but Stargate was a pretty awesome film so I thought that can't be bad.
Whilst you might think to yourself, "Why did I bother to watch this film?" I say give it a chance since you might actually grow to like it. I know I did. Plus all the films that I've seen of his have been pretty dam good: Stargate, Independence Day, Godzilla and The Day After Tomorrow; so I say take a leap of faith and give 10,000 BC a go.

Having unfortunately seen this at the cinema I feel safe in saying that this is one of the worst films to be released in recent years. A plot clearly lacking in ideas, cringeworthy acting and a complete disregard for any real portrayal of historical accuracy all served to leave me with a feeling that there was no real effort into making a credible film here, but rather to make as much money with as little as possible.

I saw this in cinema and waited for ages for it to come out on iTunes. While i waited i bought 300 and loved that. Even though 10000 does not have the epic battles like 300 it has a good storyline that 300 does not. So if you liked 300 buy this its right for you.

OK pricing issue disregarded, this isn't a great film. It gives the impression of lots of prehistoric creatures but in reality there's not many! the ones that there are, are pretty good and the graphic are great but the story is vary dull. Save your money and buy something worth watching!

I would just like to say that this movie is absolutely horrible from start to finish. I saw it in the cinema and concidered it a waste of my money! The story plot is very dissapointing and there is no goal and neaither climax. I feel like they tried to do something in the way of Apocalipto by Mel Gibson (Now that is well worth anyone's time and money) However, they didn't succeed in this film. The only thing that could grab someone's attention is the cgi (graphics) of the film. I would't even keep it if it were free.

Featuring some of the worst dialogue and some truly awful 'acting', if you can call it acting. Perhaps the 'best' bit is the wise old man voice over which will have you cracking up and then perhaps weeping if you've just forked out a tenner. Certainly one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time. If mankind truly were this rubbish 10,000 years ago I expect we'd still be out hunter-gathering.

Despite the films historical inaccuracies, bad diologue, ok acting and a plot thats been ripped right out from Apocalypto, the films not too bad. The film will appeal to you if you are around the target range but if your not then you may want to watch Apocalypto instead. Unlike the directors previous films- Independance Day, Day after Tomorrow etc this film feels like the direcor didn't put much effort into it as the film lacks action and he tries to make up for this by messing up history and including things that never existed in the films time period. There are some good action scenes though such as the jungle scene which could of gone on longer as it felt like the director was trying to restrict the action to get a lower age rating. The DVD cover showing the films hero fighting the saber tooth tiger never actually happens (False advertising!) instead they just meet each other and thats that which felt like a wasted oppourtunity. The film does have a few good points- the special effects look great, the jungle scene and as its a kids film it keeps you entertained with the old story of good V evil which works here. Don't expect plot twists etc but don't expect to not be entertained as this film makes for good entertainment.

If you have previously enjoyed fantasy films, set in different worlds with links to our own, e.g. The Lord of the rings trilogy, then it is likely that you will enjoy this film. Although I must agree that the swift change from landscapes is a little unrealistic, your imagination, if able, will lead you through the film and we should remember that, though the film title is 10,000BC, it does not necessarily mean that the film is set in our world, 12,000 years ago; again, imagination is necessary.
However, a film worth watching.
