Mongol, Theatrical Full Trailer

Award-winning Russian filmmaker Sergei Bodrov (PRISONER OF THE MOUNTAINS) illuminates the life and legend of Genghis Khan in his stunning historical epic, MONGOL. Based on leading scholarly accounts and written by Bodrov and Arif Aliyev, MONGOL delves into the dramatic and harrowing early years of the ruler who was born as Temudgin in 1162. As it follows Temudgin from his perilous childhood to the battle that sealed his destiny, the film paints a multidimensional portrait of the future conqueror, revealing him not as the evil brute of hoary stereotype, but as an inspiring, fearless and visionary leader. MONGOL shows us the making of an extraordinary man, and the foundation on which so much of his greatness rested: his relationship with his wife, Borte, his lifelong love and most trusted advisor.




Filmed in the very lands that gave birth to Genghis Khan, MONGOL transports us back to a distant and exotic period in world history; to a nomad's landscape of endless space, climatic extremes and ever-present danger. In a performance of powerful stillness and subtlety, celebrated young Japanese actor Asano Tadanobu (ZATOICHI, LAST LIFE IN THE UNIVERSE) captures the inner fire that enabled a hunted boy to become a legendary conqueror. Asano's achievement is matched by those of his co-stars, including the radiant newcomer Khulan Chuluun as Temudgin's courageous, spirited wife Borte, and the Chinese actor Honglei Sun (THE ROAD HOME) as the Mongol chieftain Jamukha, Temudgin's dearest friend and deadliest enemy. Masterfully blending action and emotion against some of the most arresting terrain on earth, Bodrov delivers an exciting and awe-inspiring tale of survival and triumph, and a love story for the ages.




MONGOL will be released on Friday, June 6th, 2008. 124 minutes. MPAA Rating -- R.

[MONGOL999ful]

This movie is nothing to do with Chingis Khan or mongolians. Russians used Chingis Khan's name to make a money. Don't you wonder why there are no mongolian actors only chinese?Really bad acting, bad language and bad translation. if you know mongolian language, you wouldn't understand a word what they saying. I had to read subtitle.

@Cossiboy1986 lol ur funny because he would have open trade routes from japan to england centuries before modern trade, Genghis Khan is smarter then you think, he knew the powers of a cavalry, the arabian bow and the scimitar, he was a great military strategist and a wise ruler.

@Alabama1sir lol somehow I highly doubt it, their attempts to invade countries overseas such as Japan were unsuccessful. Plus if the Mongols had invaded the world, especially Western Europe, then it would have probably retarted our development in a major way.
