I enjoyed 10,000 BC
I went to see 10,000 BC despite the terrible reviews (rotton tomatos rating 7%). I enjoyed it and will buy the Blue Ray when it comes out.
Great visuals, pretty girl, and a story that was n't intirely lame. OK it was n't "No Country for Old Men" but was glad I went to see it. Better than "Fools Gold" "I am Legend" and certainly more watchable than "Cloverfield".

You should! I saw it last night. It wasn't epic, but it's really not downright horrible like the reviews are suggesting. I thought it was decent. 7.5-8/10.
The movie reminded me of Apocalypto, but falls shy. The sabre tooth tiger FX amongst a few other wasn't great, but the ending battle looked pretty cool.

I saw it last night. I really didn't care for it. Yes, the visuals are good as stated above, but I really didn't care for the story too much. They could have called it "Caveman love story" and it would have gone better with the plot. I know that realism isn't a high priority in movies like this, but some of the events, buildings, and other things are so over the top unrealistic it made me just roll my eyes.
In sum... if you're into CGI stuff and don't care about the plot or archeological accuracy, I suppose this movie could be interesting. If you want a good story with a realistic plot and characters, you're better off not wasting your time.

OT: Colorado, but what happened to your post count? You were like five times that amount I thought?
Looking forward to seeing the movie.... In 3 months when it finally comes out in Australia!

WHat was everyone expecting?
You guys realize it is just a cash-cow remake of 1 Million BC...
Which was just a remake of the 1940's movie of a similar name

^ Guess that Hollywood is running out of ideas.
But yeah, I didn't know about that. Think I am gonna save my $20 and pass on this one.
