10,000 B.C.

Rolland Emmerich has delivered quite the stories. He takes you through time by the help of the Stargate, throws you into a clash between "outside" visitors in Indepedence Day, and Dennis Quaid and Jake Gyllenhaal race against mother nature in The Day After Tomorrow. In his recent 10,000 B.C. he again proves his excellence in entertainment and storytelling. Though "critics" gave 10,000 B.C. petty ratings, I consider this movie a definate fun and action packed movie you can get into.

As it starts out D'Leh's (Stephen Strait) tribe is starving and the winter is threatening their survival on this land. Then a frightened young girl is brought into the people. Old Mother, the wise women of the group, tells the tale that this girl will help lead a resistance and a recovery of their people with the help of a brave and fearless man.

The group sets out to regain their people that were captured by ruthless warlords and run into a very interesting groups of animals, enemies, allies, and other "creatures" around in 10,000 B.C.
10,000 B.C. starts out slow and not promising, but in the end gets you into the action to show you how a man becomes the first hero.

Filmed and executed similar to Stargate brought my interest in. The story line of how to build yourself up and help accomplish the impossible. It's impossible I say but an average rated, 4 out of 10, gets a 9 out of 10 from me.
