Mongol - Fantastic movie on the early stages of Ghangis Khan's life. It's a good mix of history and fiction, and the acting, cinematography, and pacing are all top notch. I was very surprised how good the action scenes were. I highly recommend it, best rental I've had in awhile.
It's supposed to be part 1 of a trilogy, but it seems to have stalled in development. It's a shame, it would be interesting to see him take over China and march on Europe and Asia Minor.
