10,000 BC

Last night I went and saw 10,000 BC. I had heard that it was a crap film... I thought very differently.


The film (obviously set in 10,000 BC) follows a young mammoth hunter, who turns into a warrior after his village is raided by another tribe and many tribe members stolen and turned into slaves. The hunter then tracks the bandits and his people through snowy mountains, lush jungle, and vast desert, all the way to Giza (Egypt) where his tribes people join many other slaves in the task of building the great pyramids.

The cinematography is visually stunning and epic on scale. The diversity of cultures you meet in the film also makes you appreciate how man-kind has evolved differently in different parts of the world.

If your going to the movies and have nothing to see, I say you should give 10,000 BC a try!
