The story
of Genghis Khan as seen through the eyes of controversial Russian historian
Lev Gumilyov, dealing with the early years in the life of the Mongol conqueror.
Japanese actor Tadanobu Asano (from ICHI
THE KILLER) shines in the title role.
ACC critic
Max Allan Collins wrote: "The
battles of Mongol are impressively staged and involving; the warfare has
the kind of dust-stirred reality that comes with massively deployed stuntmen."
If Sergio
Leone had made a movie about Genghis Khan, this is it.
