So, to sum up the movie 10,000 BC: The heroic white caveman from the snowy mountains allies with and runs as fast as Kenyans to rescue their collective people from the Pope, who builds pyramids and the Beta-Version Sphinx with mammoths.
If you can ignore the VAST historical inaccuracies, however, the movie isn’t bad. Although a tad cheesy.
Somehow, you have a tribe in the snowy mountains that consists of white people, native americans, and Jamaicans, and apparently Moses (going to “Egypt” to free the people. Cave-Moses is a badass.) who have a wise-woman that prophesies the coming of “4-legged demons”, and then has continual visions about the journey to save the mysterious blue-eyed girl that Cave-Moses loves.
We then travel over a mountain with Cave-Moses, John Smith a la Grunge, Kocoum, and a pubescent Jamaican kid with a slight moustache until they reach the end of the mountain range, which goes RIGHT into a tropical rain forest with carnivorous Dodo birds with a pituitary gland problem. They mosey on through and reach the Savannah, which has Kenyans that had a prophesy about a man leading them who could talk to the Spear-Tooth (i.e. bigass sabre-toothed tiger. Which apparently can survive in Africa.). We then meet with a bunch of bizarre tribes, one of which somehow has bamboo to use for masks, and travel across the desert to track the original kidnappers, who they saw go down the river on boats. But oh no, they don’t follow the river. They go right off into the desert and eventually start following the north star.
Upon getting there, we get treated to a giant ziggurat/pyramid (henceforth known as a Piggurmid) that has worked gold on top, and mammoths dragging up large stones. These people have an Almighty they make sacrifices too, and who is afraid of a hunter whose coming is confirmed by the perfectly-proportioned scars on the girl’s hand. There’s a whole hooplah of a fight, and then Moses throws a spear at the Almighty, who tumbles down the stairs and is eventually revealed as the Pope, who now controls the Middle-East. Then a guy with a weird deep voice kidnaps the girl on a horse, she stabs him in the kidney with an arrow, and we get the happy reunion! YAAAAAY!
Except he’s not dead and shoots her in the middle of the small of the back and kills her. Despite it going in about two inches, near nothing vital to life. At worst, she should be paralyzed. Then he gets killed by Angry Moses, and the old wise lady dies and gives her last breath to the girl, who comes back to life and they return to lead the people in growing multi-coloured Kenyan corn that grows like grass.
Yeah. Exactly.
P.S.: And the reason they don’t do autopsies on the Popes is because it’s a cover-up. They all get killed by Cavemen.
