Bob Marley Dreadlocks feat. in 10,000 B.C.

I was going to watch Waterhorse yesterday but ended up in the cinema with tickets to 10,000 B.C. Surprisingly, i enjoyed it better than i had expected. I’m a sucker for movies with narrations in the background and especially ones on this genre *so-so acting ignored lor. So i’m vouching hard for this movie. But i like 10,000 B.C. for all the wrong reasons.

The storyline is plain cheesy. Caveman in Bob Marley dreadlocks recruits warriors of different tribes to save his beloved not to mention hot cave woman, battling strange creatures, talked to a saber tooth tiger , saving slaves and gigantic woolly mammoths on his way. I hate to make you disappointed but the famous saber tooth tiger on the moive posters only had 2 short scenes in the movie.

Anyways, it’s a typical heroic, brotherhood, good wins over the bad plot but with a lot more skin. In fact… there are a lot more skin colour. (someone told me that the B.C. is associated with Benetton Colors for the various tribes in the movie LOL!). I must warn, there are scenes very much similar to the Spartans in 300.

However, i love the idea of the cavemen having an adventure on their journey across the continent… oops i guessed continents doesn’t exist back then.

EatAllYouCanShung: I think the cavemen originate from UK. See it’s very cold and got ice. Its at the north.
Me: Hmmm… i think so and they came to Malaysia!
EatAllYouCanShung: Huh? Where got?
Me: Got! They travel to Malaysia then to Africa then to Nile River and to Egypt.
EatAllYouCanShung: Don’t have lar.
Me: Got got! *excited! The scene where they suddenly came into a jungle with the gigantic birds that rips them apart. That’s Malaysia lar. Got jungle and tropical climate wat. Sure Malaysia!
EatAllYouCanShung: Yeah yeah… -_-”

Also, the CGI was spectacular. I love the mammoths. They are so adorable. The mammoth hunting scene was fantastically real. I had a hard time watching them being hunt down by the cavemen… and… and…

Ok. Who am i kidding. It’s solely becoz Steven Strait looks great in dreadlocks.
