Critics Consensus

With attention strictly paid to style instead of substance, or historical accuracy, 10,000 B.C. is a visually impressive but narratively flimsy epic.

Roland Emmerich's prehistoric odyssey 10,000 BC is his silliest, most preposterous blockbuster to date. But it's lots of fun, too.

Roland Emmerich's great big CGI blockbuster lumbers along like one of the woolly mammoths that roam across the screen.

Prehistoric compared to 1966's One Million BC, this is a movie so bad our government should have demanded its tax-break back.

It is a solidly good movie, a sincere Valentine to the best Stone Age fantasy fiction.

Rather than storytelling, it thrives on its CG effects.

This is the best movie I have ever watched, it’s very emotional and moving. I’ve seen this at least 15 times and I usually make my friends watch it. Every scene is perfectly acted and displays the true life of our ancestors. I think everyone should watch it at least twice. So sad there isn’t a part 2. This movie perfectly executed my daily life struggles and I was so engaged throughout the 1 hour and 49 minutes. The movie is so realistic I forget I’m not in 10,000 BC. I felt the fear that ooga booga felt when the sabertooth spared his life and I also was moved by the scene with the baseball bat. It’s truly inspiring and innovative. Every day I wake up I long to experience this movie again. I’m jealous of the people watching it for the first time.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

I'm one of the FEW people who love this movie- I've watched it at least 10 times. I found if very entertaining with inspiring life lessons, including courage and taking action.

Terrible movie. Really boring and nothing much happening. It feels slow and effortless. I couldn’t be bothered to walk out from the first hour.
