 TOTALLY LOVED THIS FILM October 8, 2008
I think with all the bad reviews I actually rented this film just to see how bad it was. If I got to see a sabre tooth tiger on my screen no matter how bad the special effects, then I would be a happy bunny!
I expected some random story line about cavemen running about and fleeing from dangerous animals but there was a much deeper story line and I was very pleasantly surprised. Not what I was expecting at all.
If all you want on a Saturday evening once you've put the kids to bed is to sit and enjoy an uncomplicated film with a good story line and good special effects, I recommend this 100%. This is an unpretenrious film and goes great with a takeaway and a bottle of wine! I totally loved it!

I dont know why this film has such a bad press....I went to see this film with my friends having read nothing about it and only knowing it was called 10,000 BC i expected cavemen etc....but it was nothing like that infact its a love story and it was well worth watching and im so glad i went to see it!! :D
 The words "bloody" and "awful" spring to mind September 9, 2008
Okay, love Emmelich films. Turn off your brian, watch the eye candy, go 'ooh'. That's the approach, that's how to get enjoyment out of the film. They're not here as textual excercises in deep film making. They're popcorn films for the hard-of-thinking.
But that's no excuse for this shambles. I mean, when you spend half the film trying to work out which dreadlocked guy is which it kind of detracts from the experience and makes the narrative journey a nightmare.
So okay, pretty effects but some shocking ones too. Psycho dodoes anyone!!
So it's not accurate....so what? September 1, 2008

It's best to view this movie with the proper expectations. It certainly wasn't designed to be a realistic or historically accurate portrayal of the times, but better serves as a tale of human struggle by a fictional tribe while on a journey with other tribes to recapture their people who were taken as slaves by a more advanced civilization.
Yes there are many inconsistencies with this film as it relates to time, place, and languages spoken. However, it had great cinematography, special effects, and action sequences. The story won't win an Oscar but it was better than some of the offerings at the cinema at the moment. The acting was fairly good and although some of the dialogue was very cliched and the characters made some weird and dumb decisions (like freeing a saber tooth tiger, and hoping it doesn't eat you afterwards), overall it was a fun action movie that the kids would enjoy. But if a science teacher tells you to write a report about life 10,000 years ago I wouldn't base the paper on what this movie says. Wooly Mammoths working in the desert to create the pyramids?!?!? Maybe not.

I NEVER walk out of the cinema before the end of a film and I've seen some rubbish in my time but I turned this DVD off within 5 minutes of it starting ... I can't comment on the whole film but if the start was anything to go by, it must be dire! Absolutely awful.
