First entry in a proposed trilogy, Mongol vividly captures the beauty and brutality of ancient Mongolia. Beginning in 1172 and ending in 1206, Sergei Bodrov's Oscar-nominated epic presents future conqueror Ghengis Khan as more lover--and fighter--than diplomat. Against his father Esegui's wishes, nine-year-old Temudjin chooses his own bride, whom he marries in the years to come. Hopes for the future, however, turns to thoughts of vengeance when the clan forsakes the boy upon Esegui's death. While Temudjin (now played by Zatoichi’s Tadanobu Asano, a quietly commanding presence) makes his way in a cruel world, turncoat Targutai (Amadu Mamadakov) becomes the new khan. When an opposing clan kidnaps Temudjin’s wife, Börte (Khulan Chuluun), he eventually retrieves her, but betrays blood brother Jamukha (Sun Honglei, Seven Swords) in the process, leading to further enslavement and more Kurasawa-style slicing and dicing. Throughout his travails, Temudjin comes to believe that Mongols must unite to share the same language, culture, and set of values. Sustained by his faith in the god Tengri and the devotion of Börte, Temudjin sets out to wrest control of Mongolia from Jamukha and his women and children-killing hordes. Except for an over-reliance on CGI during the climactic battle sequence, Mongol equals the scope and grandeur of historical predecessors, like Braveheart and Hero. If much of the cast is Chinese and Japanese, Bodrov, who directed Prisoner of the Mountains, conjures up authenticity through detailed costumes, Mongolian dialogue, and remote Central Asian locations. --Kathleen C.

- Mongol is an excellent movieAs 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 ... Read More

- Breathtakingly wonderfulThis 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!

- Mongol DentistsDon'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 ... Read More

- Great in theatres, terrible on dvdI 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 ... Read More
