Summary: It's Not Bad
Comment: Okay, so this movie may not be the blockbuster hit of the year, but I actually thought it was halfway decent. First off, I love Stargate so I thought the not-so-surprising resemblance in certain areas extremely amusing. Also, the story itself is not so bad. Love conquers all, good vs evil, man vs nature, conincedence vs fate--they pretty much have it all.
As for historical inaccuracies... well, really, who cares? Can we say '300'? Or any of the other hundreds of movies set in prehistoric/ancient/classical times that swerves so far from reality as to be completely unrelated? If it really bothers viewers so much, just do what I do: pretend it's somewhere else. Pretty easy, really.
I will say that the best part of this movie had nothing to do with special effects (which I thought were fairly impressive) or the acting (which... did leave something to the imagination) or the plot (yeah...), but with the music. Harold Kloser did an amazing job with this music, even if parts of it do sound strangely similar to 'The Day After Tomorrow'. Eh, who cares? There are times when I can't tell the 'Independence Day' and 'Stargate' soundtracks apart, but they are both very good.
Anyway, the movie was good and even if it isn't a I-must-have-this-movie flick, it's still good fun when your in the mood for a movie that's filled with beautiful scenery and cool prehistoric animals and Egyptian/Stargate-style sets.

Summary: not quite "fulfilling"
Comment: *10,000 B.C.* just couldn't quite be THE movie, although there were quite some interesting elements in it.
This movie focuses on a clan during a time when mammoths and sabertooths roam the earth. D'leh is isolated from his peers because his father, the clan's leader, had forsaken them. Also in the clan is the adopted blue-eyed girl.
When the girl is taken hostage in a land faraway, which you assume to be Egypt, D'leh and a few men go after them. And, along the way, they encounter little adventures.
Simple story with minimal dialogues. It's a simple damsel-in-distress plot that works just about every time. While there were cool special effects, there were misses here and there. I think what really hurt this film was that the story moved at a slow pace. Slow pace + minimal dialoge = not good.

Summary: Amazing CGI effects!
Comment: I just saw the movie. Its a great storyline. But above all, the special effects are amazing, worthy of watching on HD with a booming surround sound. I rented it at one of those vending machines at the supermarket. I wanna watch it in blue ray , once i get my PS3 this week. Enjoy.
Oh, and by the way. I'm sure the actors are getting a lot of heat in these reviews, but they're newcomers. So, you won't get the same tired old faces like cruise, foster or samuel l. jackson...lol. not that there's anything wrong with them but: I'm tired of these m-----f----- snakes!!! lol
