10,000 B.C. rocks

If you like movies about pre-historic folks battling saber-tooth tigres and wooly mammoths, you should see 10,000 B.C. I’m not endorsing the film as a realistic account of life 12,000 years ago, but it’s a cool tale of a young guy who’s girlfriend gets kidnapped by a rival tribe of horsemen who are collecting slaves to build pyramids. They walk for a few days through several different regions – mountains, jungle and desert – and then end up a place that looks a little like Egypt probably would have about 3,000 B.C.

SPOILER WARNING: IF YOU JUST READ THE ABOVE SENTENCE, THEN I RUINED ONE OF THE SURPRISES OF THIS MOVIE.

Anyone know whether this film is legal in Missouri? I wasn’t sure if any film depicting life before 4,000 B.C. is legal there.
