10,000 BC

Diana and I watched 10,000 BC today. It was just OK. Nothing special for sure. There was action, but nothing that blew me away and said this is awesome. The basic storyline goes like this: **SPOILERS BELOW**

There is a group of hunters (did I mention that this was supposed to be in 10,000 BC). They have a prophecy around this girl they find, whomever is her "man" will be the best hunter and leader of the tribe. She grows up and a certain boy likes her. The boy is an outcast. As they grow they begin to fall in love, but he cannot have her until he wins her in the hunt. During the hunt the boy takes down the animal all by himself with mostly luck. He wins the girl and is happy, except the old leader knows that he did not really "win" her. The boy gives her up. That night the bad people come and steal a bunch of the villagers. The boy follows and while he is gone meets many people and has many adventures. He gains many friends and once he finds the girl and his other villagers he sets them free and all the other slaves. Him and the girl live happily ever after.

**END SPOILERS**

I give this movie 3 out of 5 stars. Like I said, it was just a movie. Time filler. This could have really been epic, but just was not executed correctly to be that great.
