I was hesitate at first to watch 10,000 BC in theaters, after reading terrible reviews and ratings by movie critics. I decided to watch the film anyways, since it did appear to interest me in the trailers alone. I've always been a fan of the creatures of the BC world. Especially the Mammoth and Smilodon the Saber-Toothed Tiger.
I decided to go to a cheaper theater so that if the movie sucked... it wouldn't be much of a financial lose in my pocket change. The movie was about 2 hours long and it was actually enjoyable to watch. Though there were many things I would like to have had different in the film, it defiantly wasn't a bad film. Just not the most amazing film of the year... thats for sure.
The movie takes place in Giza, in 10, 000 BC. It features various tribes of different ethnicities. The film tackles a theory of how the pyramids were constructed; which i won't reveal in this review. Its an interesting concept.
Here's the minus's about the film:
The one part of the film that really disappointed me and everyone else watching the movie for the first time, was that the Sabre-tooth tiger has hardly any presence in the film. Maybe only about 2 scenes.
This film almost feels like your watching 300 with Apocolyto merged together. I can't state why since it may reveal some important scenes in the movie.
I give this film a 6/10
If you haven't seen the commercials or the trailers online. Here's a sneak preview of 10, 000 BC
