What the Critics say | ||
| Cape Argus / The Star Theresa Smith  Sabre-toothed tigers but no bite. | 5 |  |
| iAfrica.com Lisa Human Pretentious, convoluted and insulting to anyone with an IQ higher than that of Tara Reid. | 5 | |
| 24.com Ivan Sadler In comparison to 10 000 BC, the worst films you've seen over the last couple of years will look a whole lot better. | 0 | |
| BBC Paul Arendt Cheesier than a four-cheese pizza and marginally more accurate than the Flintstones, 10,000 BC is not a film to be taken too seriously. | 10 |  |
| ReelViews James Berardinelli 10,000 B.C. isn't only brain-dead, it's completely dead. It's inert and without a heartbeat. | 8 | |
| Rolling Stone Peter Travers Emmerich, who hit it big with Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow and hit the skids with Godzilla, skids even lower with this gargantuan gasbag of an epic. | 5 | |
| ScreenItAleaden and sometimes fairly goofy when not boring, prehistoric road trip that wants to be epic in nature, but only occasionally perks up in a few action sequences. | 6 | |
| Metacritic.com 29 critics | 7 | |
| Rottentomatoes critics 113 critics | 7 | |
| Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer A visually impressive but narratively flimsy epic. | 2 | |
