Trivia:
Reference is also made to the Platonic theory that the construction techniques used in Egypt were imported from the ancient lost civilization of Atlantis. The movie makers include a glimpse of a map showing one of the putative locations of Atlantis, off the coast of Spain. more
Goofs:
Factual errors: The plants that D'Leh is looking over in one of the later scenes of the movie can neither be beans (which have circular leaves) nor corn (which grows in a more uniformly vertical way), which are the two types of seeds given to him by the North African people in an earlier scene. more
Quotes:
D'Leh: [to Tic'Tic] We need you. They will not fight with us. more

Like cafeteria lasagna...., 9 March 2008
5/10
Author: walt-48 from Houston, Texas

You know how when you go to a cafeteria style restaurant and you see something you usually enjoy like lasagna. You get the lasagna and take a bite with the fond memories of the last time you ate it in a real restaurant. When the first taste hits your tongue and all hopes of future meal enjoyment are flushed down the toilet. 10,000BC is the cafeteria lasagna. It looks goods, has the potential to be great, you have fond memories of other movies in the same genre that were good, and then you watch it. It's edible but just barely. The movie had pretty good special effects and wasn't boring which is why I gave it a five. The dialog and acting were for the most part sub-par. The story didn't even make an attempt to suspend your disbelief. Forget historically inaccurate, it was ridiculous. If I were you I would catch the matinée or wait for someone else to pay for the cafeteria lasagna
