From director Roland Emmerich comes a sweeping odyssey into a mythical age of prophesies and gods, when spirits rule the land and mighty mammoths shake the earth. In a remote mountain tribe, the young hunter, D'Leh (Steven Strait), has found his heart's passion - the beautiful Evolet (Camilla Belle). When a band of mysterious warlords raid his village and kidnap Evolet, D'Leh is forced to lead a small group of hunters to pursue the warlords to the end of the world to save her. Driven by destiny, the unlikely band of warriors must battle saber-tooth tigers and prehistoric predators and, at their heroic journey's end, they uncover a Lost Civilization. Their ultimate fate lies in an empire beyond imagination, where great pyramids reach into the skies. Here they will take their stand against a powerful god who has brutally enslaved their people.



Not content merely to destroy our planet, Hollywood’s disaster master Roland Emmerich is now using his special effects time machine to obliterate our past. Emmerich, best known for directing effects heavy, script-light modern day disaster movies like The Day After Tomorrow and Independence Day has turned his attention to early man.

Since man may not have even discovered fire yet, let alone nuclear weapons, 10,000 B.C. is likely to be lighter on the explosions than the usual Emmerich film. Instead of car chases (you need to have invented the wheel for that), we’ll get Wooly Mammoth battles. Instead of exploding skyscrapers, we’re getting guys throwing spears in skimpy loincloths. Gerard Butler would be proud. But don’t think this is some sort of bizarre Emmerich Oscar bid. It’s more of the same from him: a flashy, overly computer animated blockbuster. Those of you wishing for Sabre-toothed tiger Muppets to battle are almost certainly out of luck.

    I'm actually looking forward to this movie. I want to see how they portray life at that time and if the movie really will be as epic as the commercials show.

    yawn. looks boring.

  1. dr. dave Says:

    Actually, fire was discovered by Homo erectus more than 250,000 years ago, but... there are enough other anachronisms in this movie to make my head explode every time I see the trailer.

  1. R.A. Curtis Says:

    Makes my head hurt, too. As a flintknapper, I know something of prehistory, and the whole "ice age civilization" concept leaves me cold. Why not toss in a few dinosaurs, too? Doubt I'd be going to see this flick...not even in my tattiest loincloth.

  1. Flynn Says:

    Hey folks, lighten up. This is a popcorn flick, not a college history lesson! The original King Kong wasn't exactly a pillar of accuracy... but who cared, the big monkey rocked!

    The effects look great, and so does the cast. This will launch Camilla Belle's career, and Steven Strait is the next Brad Pitt.

    JEEZ people relax take this movie for what it is an accurate portrayal of the Stone Age it ain’t, it’s just a bit of fluff. I think he should have set in another planet aka..Stargate, then it’d be more fun.

  1. Jeremy Says:

    Look, as long as this movie will entertain me for 2 hours i'm happy. at least it's "somewhat" of an original idea for a movie. as if that exists anymore.. i'm just glad it's not a sequal like every other movie this year!
