3/16/18. This movie was ok, from an entertainment standpoint, great scenery, battles and costumes. Story could have used some editing so it would flow better. For example, there's no explanation how the baby Jochi is an adolescent the very next scene. This happens several times so that the viewer is never sure of when things are happening.

i thought this was a very well made movie,both from a technical and visual standpoint.i have no idea how historically factual it is.Obviously the character of Genghis Khan did exist and probably around the time the movie depicts.whether completely factual or not(and most movies,other than documentaries,are not)i did like how they depicted Khan.we see him at birth,as a young boy,growing into a man,finally at adulthood.they really showed him first as a human being,then a warrior.in this movie,he isn't some bloodthirsty tyrant.i also thought the battle scenes were pretty realistic.there was very little CG,maybe one overhead shot.the acting was very good,as was the music.the only thing i had a bit of a problem with was there were so many warring tribes,it was hard to keep track of who was who.and it is pretty long,about 130 minutes without end credits.this particular DVD had the option of dubbed English,or Japanese with English subtitles.i viewed the movie with the subtitles,after trying the dubbed version for the first few minutes,and finding it too distracting.my recommendation is the subtitles.for me,Genghis Khan: To the Ends of the Earth and Sea is a 9/10

Let me start by telling you some great reasons NOT to watch this movie. If you are looking for mindless violence, superbly choreographed action sequences, historical accuracy, big budget movie feel or fast paced narration, then avoid this movie. It offers you none of these.What this movie does have is a good story line, compelling narration that involves the audience, play of human emotions and great acting. It is memorable because of all these factors.Genghis Khan in real life was a ruthless man and unlikely to posses any of the stellar qualities ascribed to him in this movie. But that is the creative license we must allow film makers to have. Otherwise it would be drab world where all movies are documentaries.If you want to know about the real Genghis Khan, read a book.If you want to be immersed in good story telling, then watch this movie.

First of all the movie is historically very inaccurate. The director "kills" Zuchi some 20 years earlier than he was supposed to die, "makes" Jamukha to kill Tooril, who was actually killed by Naimans, and so on. I know to put the story of Genghis Khan into a single movie is very difficult. The movie seems to be mostly talking about whether Temujin is Esukhei's son and whether Zuchi is Temujin's son. This topic might be interesting for many, but Temujin is a very strong historical figure and it is hard to believe that he was depressed too much over this dispute. HEWell, my point is this movie is not for learning history at all. Somehow for mongolianss the behaviors of main characters seem quite comical. People couldn't help but burst to laughter when Temujin makes quick movements to hold his woman.
