Chicago Tribune
Emmerich has no time for poetry or magic, even when the director and his digital wizards (here doing wildly variable work) are trying to dazzle. He’s a taskmaster and a field marshall, not a visionary. But I enjoyed 10,000 B.C. more and more, and more than just about anything Emmerich’s done before.

L.A. Weekly
Director Roland Emmerich (Godzilla, Independence Day) knows his money shots: any time he throws some mastodons or giant dodos on the screen for a little beast-battlin’ action, he has our attention. But his lack of skill with actors really shows during the long moments of downtime in-between.

"The Day After Tomorrow" was kind of stupidly fun, and 10,000 B.C. might be too, if it weren't so stupidly dull.

One doesn't expect intelligent scripting or deep characterization from Roland Emmerich, but the film's lack of energy, poor special effects, and monotonous pacing lead to an inescapable conclusion: 10,000 B.C. isn't only brain-dead, it's COMPLETELY dead. It's inert and without a heartbeat.

Washington Post
One part Joseph Campbell hero quest, one part multi-culti morality tale, one part live-action "Flintstones" cartoon, 10,000 B.C. is finally every part just plain nuts, from a hike featuring more ecosystems than an Al Gore documentary to a wacky climax set amid pyramids that -- you'll e-mail me if I'm wrong -- wouldn't have been built for another 7,000 years or so.

The only evolution in question here is that of Emmerich's skills as a director of motion pictures.

I liked it. The action was immense and it had a likeable theme to it. The plot was not the most complex and it wasn't very original in terms of scope. However the acting was great and i like the characters. he ending ruined it, however

this film is not as bad as everyone is saying, not by far one of the best but it is worth at least one watch. the plot is not very good but when you get to the action bits they do a good job, give this film a chance

What a dissapointment this movie looked like it could have been an interesting prehistoric adventure film since it hasprehistoric creatures in it but it fails wit poor script, mediocre acting, and an inconsistent tone along with a lackluster villain, there are some elements that can be interesting but don’t work due to poor excecution and I heard a lot of terrible things of this movie because I always expect emmerich to make a great blockbuster epic with likeable charachters an involving narrative with drama and tension and most of all exciting action he was capable of making an intelligent serious history film with the patriot and anonymous ( which was his third a attempt ) but his second falls flat hard to imagine how much negative were critics on this film but I can’t give it a complete zero only because of the potential it has as well as it’s CGI and visuals this film is also inaccurate in its portrayal of prehistory did mammoths or even tigers with saber teeth exist in the bc year of 10,000 and why do the caveman speak English which they didn’t since back then they did either sign language or spoke the language of apes perhaps one of the ways they could have made this great is they could have just made this into a foreign language film with completely non English language and that there would be subtitles when they speak primate language. and while I can’t say this is not as bad as the uwe boll lord of the rings knock off ( which came out the same year as this wasted potential ( 2008 ) ) it’s better because it’s made by a far more talented director it’s stil a huge dissapointment I’m not sure what emmerich was thinking or if he even read the script but ambition here was wasted as a result it ranks as one of the acclaimed blockbuster directors worst movies there is a good adventure film to be made about prehistoric people and animals but this isn’t it

10,000 BC is the dullest movie with the dullest special effects, mediocre plot and grim acting. Roland Emmerich must be dying to make a prehistoric movie and he failed to make one look so pretty.
