10,000 BC

Yesterday I took a vacation day. This is worth noting because I have hardly taken any vacation time this past year. Unfortunately one of the major reasons I did that was to work on my taxes (more on that for another post). I did take a break after lunch to go see 10,000 BC with my dad and sister though. My impression of this movie was that it had cavemen, dinosaurs, saber tooth tigers AND pyramids. I basically expected this to also have some crazy alien twist and a gigantic explosion.

While the movie was good and entertaining it took itself far more serious than I thought it would. There were no dinosaurs or aliens or explosions. The movie was lacking because of this. I wanted something completely over the top that was unbelievably ridiculous. This movie is rated PG-13 and unfortunately it’s way on the tame side of PG-13. It should have been R. I just needed more in every way.

Camilla Belle was extremely attractive in this film, but again, PG-13. I was hoping for slightly more compromising caveman attire.

Seriously though the movie needed dinosaurs. And men riding those dinosaurs, using them to build pyramids made out of diamonds for their alien overlords. It could have been so much more…
