Mongol
This film from Kazakhstan came out early last year
and was nominated for Best Foreign Film at the Oscars.
It is the early life of Genghis Kahn.
It was entertaining. There was some good battle scenes.
It made me appreciate Genghis Kahn a little more.
As far as world conquerors go, if I had a choice between
Genghis Kahn and Alexander, I would choose Kahn.
Unlike Alexander the Great, Genghis Kahn started out
from the bottom and moved his way up.
Here's a still image of the film when Genghis Kahn
was a slave when he was a kid.
I think its worth to rent. Maybe to buy if
you love epic movies like Gladiator,
but definitely worth your time.
This is part of a trilogy, the next one comes out
next year.
