Most helpful review Genghis Khan - A Proud Son Of Heaven

  • Genghis Khan: really poor

    Rated - 1.0 star

    The subtitles are without a background and so are really hard to read at times, which is very annoying. So I didn't follow the film well at all.

  • Very broken story line

    Rated - 1.0 star  
    By a customer from London , 08 Mar 2010
    I rented the film hoping that it will give me a summary of the life of Genghis Khan.

    However the whole story plot (if there's any?!) is disjoint and half of the film is about horses running in the wild/ grassland of Mongolia.

  • Real Mongols

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    Made by Mongols, it gives a much more believable view of what life might have been like in the world Genghis Khan grew up in. Sadly, it messes around with the history - for instance Genghis's father was poisoned, and also it was a half-brother he killed. He also looks a lot too old during his rise to power.

    Despite which - and despite some comical errors in the subtitles - I thought it a good film.

    This film is described in the advertising blurb as being in English, and it certainly isn't - I assume it's in Mongolian [which isn't a huge suprise] but then the subtitles are in Chinese and then English - and it seems like the transation has been done either by someone who isn't great at it, or through Chinese as an intermediate language, so after an hour or so of not really making much sense I gave up with it! I don't mind films with subtitles, but this really isn't a good example.

    An educational film which captures the essence of the Monglian steppe and nomadic lifestyle perfectly.
