Movie Description
Director Roland Emmerich weaves myth and legend together in this epic love story. As the Ice Age is ending, the Yagahl people are struggling to survive. When Evolet (Camilla Belle), a young, blue-eyed girl is found and brought back to the tribe, their esteemed elder, Old Mother (Mona Hammond), realizes that the child is fulfilling a prophecy and will be instrumental in saving the Yagahl. D'Leh (Steven Strait) swore his heart to Evolet when she first came to the tribe, and after many years claims her as his own. But no sooner are the young lovers together, than they are torn apart by mysterious men arriving on horseback who kidnap many of the Yagahl, including Evolet, for slave trade. Determined to save his love and their people, D'Leh embarks on a rescue mission with his father figure Tic'Tic (Cliff Curtis). Along the way, they encounter different lands, new people, and strange creatures including giant birds akin to a killer ostrich.


Mixing history and fantasy, there is little (if anything) that is historically accurate in this film. Rather, Emmerich weaves together myths and legends to unite people from different lands into one force and bring down a great evil that threatens all of their civilizations. Emmerich also tackles multiple universal themes: the redemption of an outsider, the coming of age of a boy who becomes a leader, the importance of loyalty, and the discovery and understanding of new cultures. Ultimately, he tackles the age-old saga of star-crossed lovers and the power of love. Omar Sharif narrates this love story that spans mountains, valleys, deserts, and rivers.

Producer:Mark Gordon, Roland Emmerich
Cast:Cliff Curtis, Tim Barlow

Editorial Reviews
"More than anything, 10,000 BC is an updated version of those old Saturday matinee action films and serials, filled with hair-breadth escapes, wild coincidences, things foretold by ancient prophecy and mysterious places..."
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (03/07/2008)

3 stars out of 5 -- "A good-looking, inventively clad cast interact among dizzying layers of CGI, visual and sound special effects to make a preposterous prehistoric adventure quest that is undeniably spectacular."
Empire - Angie Errigo (05/01/2008)

"An early mammoth-hunting sequence...is genuinely impressive, with CGI attending to each wind-ruffled, pachydermic hair."
Sight and Sound - Samuel Wigley (05/01/2008)

    I wasn't sure what to expect when I rented 10,000 BC. I knew it was a 'story' set in 10,000 BC, but not about 10,000 BC. ;)

    The story line follows a tribal group of hunters who hunt the wolly mammoth. These hunters are blessed by a blue eyed girl who is part of a prophecy according to their tribal leader.

    After having most of the tribe kidnapped the remaining hunters go forth to rescue them. The rest of the story is about love lost, found, and triumph over evil.

    The acting is ... sub-par. However the special effects are great. It is neat to see what the director felt life in 10,000 BC would look like. It was good to kill an evening with, but this DVD is not going into my collection.

    3/5 Average.

      Like cafeteria lasagna...
    Review created: 06/19/08

    You know how when you go to a cafeteria style restaurant and you see something you usually enjoy like lasagna? You get the lasagna and take a bite with fond memories of the last time you ate it in a real restaurant. When the first taste hits your tongue and all hopes of future meal enjoyment are flushed down the toilet....that would be the same sensation one gets after watching 10,000 B.C.

    It looks goods, has the potential to be great, you have fond memories of other movies in the same genre that were good, and then you watch it. It's edible but just barely. The movie had pretty good special effects and wasn't boring which is why I gave it a five. The dialog and acting were for the most part sub-par. The story didn't even make an attempt to suspend your disbelief. Forget about historical accuracy, it was ridiculous. If I were you, I would wait for someone else to pay for this theatrical version of cafeteria lasagna....and then watch it on their dime.
