Heavy on moronic mysticism and light on imagination, excitement, and shot-to-shot coherence Full Review |

People expecting a fun action movie will be severely disappointed. If you get drunk with some buddies and go to make fun of it, you might like it more. But that doesn't make it a good movie Full Review |

Would make a good drinking game; silly fun but not "good." A critic sitting near me snorted in derision at my "the costumes kicked ass," but I won't back down. They were really cool. Full Review |

I can't help but think that 10,000 BC started out as an idea that sounded like, "Wouldn't it be cool if we had wooly mammoths and saber toothed tigers and people all in the same movie?" and went from there. Full Review |

A disaster that can't even get the computer generated images right. Full Review |

...most of the film is simply a matter of waiting for it to end. Full Review |

Ready to rumble, scantily clad Neanderthals gone wild, gliding around the globe faster than high speed Internet. And while dodging seemingly nearsighted menacing reptiles with bad manners, whose oversized choppers repeatedly miss their mark. Full Review |

1.5/5 |
But the folks who made 10,000 B.C. have filled their film with a sub-Disney plot and inserted a few measly slivers of action that hardly warrant all the mystical hubbub and romantic angst. Full Review |

It was a pleasant surprise. Full Review |

1.5/5 |
In fact, while sitting through this banal attempt at a big-scale epic, I could not help but go through a checklist in my mind of all the movies "10,000 B.C." borrows from. Full Review |

1/5 |
If you absolutely must endure 10,000 BC, do as we did and take along a pencil - jabbing the nib in your eye might be the only way to regain a sense of feeling after the dumbest, naffest cinematic violation of your life. Full Review |

0/5 |
The filmmakers should be ashamed of themselves for even allowing this movie to enter a movie theatre. It was like a bad made for TV special that you would see on ABC or NBC. Full Review |

The actors speak in fluent anachronistic English. The dialogue is prehistoric but not in the way Emmerich intended. Full Review |
