Synopsis

Oscar-winning director Milos Forman executive produces this cinematic import from Kazakhstan. In the 18th century, Mongolian invaders rule the country. The Kazakhs are divided by infighting, but Oraz (Jason Scott Lee, THE JUNGLE BOOK) searches for the messiah destined to unite and save his people. He finds Mansur, the baby boy of prophecy, and trains him to be a fighter. As Mansur (Kuno Becker, GOAL!) becomes a man, he reveals himself to be a mighty warrior, as does his best friend, Erali (Jay Hernandez, HOSTEL). The men prepare to battle the Mongols, who are led by the strength of Sharish (Mark Dacascos, IRON CHEF).


Though this war epic features an unusual subject in its focus on the history of Kazakhstan, it follows in the footsteps of Hollywood war films such as BRAVEHEART. Unlike most recent battle-driven movies, NOMAD: THE WARRIOR doesn't rely on computer-generated effects to create its vast armies. Instead, it focuses on the talents of real people, including Dacascos, who has displayed his martial-arts prowess in films like DOUBLE DRAGON and BROTHERHOOD OF THE WOLF. Each of the actors displays deft sword fighting skills--an essential in a film fuelled by action. Italian composer Carlo Siliotto (THE PUNISHER) garnered a Golden Globe nomination for his powerful score.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing and unoriginal, 6 Dec 2008
By Mr. D. G. Stone "dagest" (Bristol, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The film is a disappointment. It contains all the same predictable and dull plot twists that you've seen in any other film of this type. There seems to be little logic in the narrative and it just seems to plod from one action sequence to the next. I got the overwhelming impression that there was a political message behind this film i.e. 'we are Kazakhstan and we are not like Borat - look we have an American hero like you!' (actually he is American and he really is the hero). What with the 'never ending' orchestral accompaniment which cranks up every time we see a mountain range and the irritating 'Enyaesque' music, you get a feeling that you've seen this film before. I couldn't help but think that this film was produced for the non-discerning American, who simply loves a hero.

In terms of positives, the acting was fine and the action sequences were well choreographed.

2.0 out of 5 stars Kazakh, said the boy, Kazakh, Kazakh!, 29 Jul 2009
By 1001 Pages (Germany) - See all my reviews
This is the film: a warrior-fairytale with a boring script and an easily predictable plot, set in majestic landscape peopled with nicely clod actors. There is romance as well, and streams of blood stain the battlefields and the rags of a chained duellant. The old are wise, the men fight, and the young are in love; the women shiver in their tents and are in love as well. The overall visual impact is partially ruined by the presence of Anglo-Saxon B-movie actors impersonating Nomad warriors. In addition, it seems that the Kasakh Ministry of the Interior co-financed the movie with the aim of strengthening the Kazakh national identity. Hooray for the united Kazakhs! This is my favourite scene: A little boy who encounters his father for the first time (without knowing him) is asked where he comes from. He then doesn't name a particular tribe but simply says: Kazákh. On hearing this, the eyes of the warriors flow over with tears and the father recognises his son. Halleluja. Kazakh, Kazakh!
