Summary: Mongol
Comment: Paints a amazing picture of the his life and a great starting point for telling the rrest of his life
Customer Rating:
Summary: Mongol is an excellent movie
Comment: As a fan of history, I made an effort to see Mongol in the theater. Once seen, I had to order it so my family could also see it. Although it is a foreign language film, the dialogue is not affected by reading it. Anyone interested in Genghis Khan or history in general would find this film worthwhile, even though it is a 'guy" film. It is not suitable for children due to the level of violence.
I've purchased about 10 films total in my life, and this is one of the best. I look forward to the sequel.
If you are interested in Gehghis Khan, read Genghis : Birth of an Empire
by Conn Iggulden. One of the best books by one of the greatest historical authors today.

Summary: Breathtakingly wonderful
Comment: This is a wonderful movie. The story is fascinating and the cinematography is breathtaking. I've seen all of David Lean's epics, but this movie wipes the floor with them all...collectively!
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Mongol Dentists
Comment: Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed this movie. As a person of middle-European extraction, there's more than a hint of Mongolia in my DNA.
On the subject of extraction, I must note that the apparent skill of twelfth century dentists stretches my credulity. When the mature wife of Genghis-to-be flashes a smile, it is as pearly as Paris Hilton's.
Upon careful reflection I have come to attribute the exemplary dentition to some indigenous foodstuff. Yak butter may well be the key to this cosmetic conundrum.

Summary: Great in theatres, terrible on dvd
Comment: I absolutely love this move, both for its compelling story and beautiful scenery and landscapes. I was totally enthralled when i watched it in the movie theatre with my father. I just bought a copy of this film from my local blockbuster and while the movie is still wonderful, something was definitely lost in translation. Literally. This product is S#%T on some very key levels. First and foremost, there are NO extras on this disc. None. No quickie on the fact and fiction of Temudgin. No info about the director, Segrei Bodrov. Nothing. Zip. Zilch. Second, I don't speak Mongol and therefore rely heavily in the subtitles. It seemed however, the film was missing a number of subtitles. There were numerous cases where the subtitles cut out mid-sentence, or finished a sentence which was never started. There were problems with tense and sentence structure, almost as if the guy who put the subtitles with the film was either a drunk non-fluent turd, or someone who was really pissed off at the world and wanted to yank the chains of all the viewers.
