10,000 B.C

10, 000 years worth of Crappola. Fabulous.
Like all epics , the baseline is that there comes a hero, who's got more balls (and brawns would help a lot too) than Brains, will raise hell to save that Pretty Little thing (Leadership camps?).

With that settled, let us first state the obvious, like all epics, the visual effects are stunning. The sheer size of the production is mind boggling.

Then you leave the theatre feeling like a complete idiot because you got a sense of DeJa Vu. Like you went to Apocalypto and back.

Some crazed dictator decides that monuments ought to be built in his name (a.k.a 'I AM God' getit?) then decides that the only way to construct Pyramids bigger than their egos is to herd the rest of the world (in this case, the poor Mammoths as well), to slave for him (no, not the I'm-A-Slave-For-You Britney sorta way).
Only this time, where Apocalypto was as loosely real as it could get (it's really still fictional), 10,000 B.C screws you inside out .

Like the last couple of years of Proper Education you've ever had had suddenly gone to waste over a single session of Popcorn.

The prehistoric time line is messed up. The geographical imposibilities is appalling. the historical backdrop is blaspheme.

If there was even the remote possibility of waltzing from the central regions of Seberia to the middle of South America and then go sun tanning in Africa in the next,your Geography lessons have gone to waste. And are you sure you know where you live?

If the Hebrews were indeed the Mammoths who slaved for the Pyramids of Egypt.... ok, let's not even go there.

Now,let's put the possibilities of having to burn our school graduation certificates aside, and talk about other anomalies.

>Did the Almight Ruler ripped his fashion sense from Diva Plava Laguna of The Fifth Element?

>And where the hell did the Saber Tooth cat go to when all the action was happening? Pussy!^^P

All said and done though, this show is for pure entertainment. Period.

It's the weekends, remember?

Q

PS: A perfectly harmless show that, ironically, you should never show your kids. It'll mess them up. A:-D
