This is the first time I’m hearing about the Genghis Khan biopic, Mongol, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t look freaking awesome. Written and directed by Sergei Bodrov (director of nothing you have ever seen) Mongol tells the story of Genghis Khan’s harsh early life before he grew up to be the conqueror of half the world.
