SYNOPSIS
From director Roland Emmerich ("Independence
Day," "The Day After Tomorrow") comes a sweeping
odyssey into a mythical age of prophesies and gods,
when spirits rule the land and mighty mammoths
shake the earth. In a remote mountain tribe, the
young hunter D'Leh (Steven Strait) has found his
heart's passion - the beautiful Evolet (Camilla Belle).
But when a band of mysterious warlords raid his
village and kidnap Evolet, D'Leh leads a small group
of hunters to pursue the warlords to the end of the
world to save her. As they venture into unknown
lands for the first time, the group discovers there
are civilizations beyond their own and that
mankind's reach is far greater than they ever knew.
At each encounter the group is joined by other tribes
who have been attacked by the slave raiders,
turning D'Leh's once-small band into an army. Driven
by destiny, the unlikely warriors must battle
prehistoric predators while braving the harshest
elements. At their heroic journey's end, they uncover
a lost civilization and learn their ultimate fate lies in
an empire beyond imagination, where great
pyramids reach into the skies. Here they will take
their stand against a tyrannical god who has brutally
enslaved their own. And it is here that D'Leh finally
comes to understand that he has been called to
save not only Evolet but all of civilization. --© Warner
