The film focuses on the hardship of a man who would conquer the world. In the background of breathtaking landscapes, bloody battles follow after he escapes the shackle of bondage. Amazing, gripping and thrilling.

Certainly starts out with the facts as I researched them. Then not likely. Didn't say he was a good guy to all nationalities. Watchable.

I don't watch movies to see navel gazing man babies with man buns sitting around wooden tables eating rice pudding whilst "developing character". I watch movies to see psychically individuated heroes accomplishing great tasks. Heroes are…

It's depressing that Sergei bordov wasn't able to complete his saga of gengis kahn's life and yet American pie generated enough money to earn like TEN sequels...

I love epic Chinese war/history movies when they're good, but...This didn't seem very accurate or realistic. Started out interesting but quickly defaulted into the usual kung-fu dance contests. Why is it that every movie that contains a…

Great scenery which is the only positive feature of this movie. This was supposed to be Genghis' own story so no one could dispute even when he hinted that the Mongolian god was on his side and had answered his prayers. However, even for a…

Great 2007 epic Russian/German movie explicating tribal background of origin of Mongol empire. Lots of terrific cinematic horses, swords, bows and arrows, armor, landscapes, romance. The Merkit warrior masks were particularly…

like to think it was historically correct as it was fasinating

This is very good movie on the rise Genghis Khan. The story is great, the costumes are awesome and every thing else is done very well. Keeps you interested throughout. Recommended.

Did feel long but did like it - gave me a new appreciation of Ghenis Khan's life. Not for everyone though... not for really young, and not sure if my spouse would like it due to its pace, though he like historic stuff. I agree it is…

I thought that the film was very well done. It showed how much Tegmudgin struggled during his early life, and the sacrifices he made for his family.

The main battle at the end was rather disappointing, especially compared to the rest of the movie. The subtitles didnt really bother me-generally I'm not a fan. The filming was first rate-scenery wonderful. Overall, not a bad film.
