(1 - 34) of 34 OFCS Rating: 3% Rotten Page   1   2/5 "As a series of set pieces looking for any available fable to keep it afloat, 10,000 BC is really nothing more than computing power and implausibility."   PopMatters   Bill Gibron D+ "Emmerich has never been one to rely on the wizardry of nuance, but I was stunned to feel numb to nearly everything B.C. offered, as if my mind immediately detected a filmmaker looking to brazenly cash in on his past successes."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf "Surely it's only coincidence that the sign of D'Leh's accomplishment is a White Spear."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 2/5 "I have to give Emmerich credit for creating a film that's been funnier than '27 Dresses' or 'Over Her Dead Body.'"   eFilmCritic.com   Dan Lybarger B+ "The little-prehistoric-epic-that-could actually delivers an entertaining couple of hours."   EDGE Boston   David Foucher 1/4 "10,000 B.C. is a load of crap dressed up with pretty background vistas. The film is terminally lifeless, something that a so-called 'event' picture should never be."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman D+ "It's just a wrong movie altogether, an elaborately nonsensical stew of crazy costumes, bizarre accessories, and funny voices."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider D- "Roland Emmerich has a remarkable talent for draining all the life out of interesting stories."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov 2/5 "Strait has to be one of the most unsympathetic cardboard heroes of the genre, while Bell leaves little reason to care for her beyond her bitching dreadlocks..."   Film Threat   Felix Vasquez Jr. F "This crackpot combination of Pathfinder and Apocalypto [is] a brainless exercise in prehistoric goofiness that actually affords more laughs than Ice Age."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 1.5/4 "10,000 B.C. isn't only brain-dead, it's completely dead. It's inert and without a heartbeat."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 1/4 "In an age where ... audiences reward blood-and-thunder films ... at the box office, greenlighting 10,000 B.C. must have seemed logical. I can imagine someone pitching the film ...by saying "It's like 300 .... plus 9,700!""   Cinematical   James Rocchi 3/10 "Click here to read review"   sumno.com   Jaroslav Vishtaljuk 1/5 "ena matso kakomoirides sernontai stin ammo kai ton ilio, s' ena ftino, proheiro, afeles kai kakogoysto deigma karampinatis gerontikis anoias toy Emmerich"   Movies for the Masses   Joseph Proimakis 2/5 "Too much of 10,000 BC seems to be sampled from other movies that preceded it"   7M Pictures   Kevin Carr 1/4 "The kind of movie that people will discover new and hilarious ways to mock for years to come."   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik D "With a dreadfully dull story and performances as petrified as 12,000-year-old wooden artifacts, 10,000 BC shambles along as if on a march to its own extinction."   Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema   Mark Pfeiffer "Oh my god: the silly, it burns. It burns!"   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 1.5/4 "If Mel Gibson remade Apocalypto and cast it with the Geico cavemen, he might end up with something akin to 10,000 B.C.."   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan C "If you are ten years old fan of video games with a short attention span and no knowledge of history, you will love this movie. The further you stray from these core qualifications, the less you will love it."   Beliefnet   Nell Minow 1.5/4 "Roland Emmerich is partial to cutting-edge special effects and stone-age storytelling, meaning that 10,000 B.C., a dim-witted CG extravaganza set in prehistoric times, is something like his ideal project."   Slant Magazine   Nick Schager 1/5 "This may well be the first prehistoric epic in which the liberal deployment of such words as "oog," "agh" and "uck" would have actually improved the screenplay considerably."   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 2.5/5 "Even though there's never a hint of either research or gritty realism, it's still good fun."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline 1/5 "One of the stupidest and most boring films of the year."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves D "One can only infer that, in order for it to be taken seriously, the makers expected audiences to forget pretty much every movie they'd ever seen before in their entire life."   Projection Booth   Rob Humanick D "My poor brain hung in there for as long as it could, but it lost its grip during the giant chicken attack and I haven't seen it since."   Flipside Movie Emporium   Rob Vaux "... a dull compendium of recycled adventure epic cliches."   Seanax.com   Sean Axmaker 0.5/4 "crap, and more crap in a crap bucket"   sbs.is   Stefan Birgir Stefansson "10,000 BC would be much better if it allowed itself the freedom to be kitsch."   Salon.com   Stephanie Zacharek 5/10 "While admittedly formulaic and banal, it's also a guilty pleasure for those who enjoy watching stampeding herds of woolly mammoths."   SSG Syndicate   Susan Granger 5/10 "Just barely good enough to fulfill the needs of an audience starved for any sort of effects-driven film that hardly sticks in the brain for more than a few minutes after it's over."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton 0/4 "It's a film that countryman Uwe Boll would have made had he the budget and the cinematographer"   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw 2/5 Read review   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick Read review   Sci-Fi Movie Page   James O'Ehley  (1 - 34) of 34 OFCS Rating: 3% Rotten Page   1
