Im an iranian and to all of my people for god sake please first watch then judge who knows what happend thousands of years ago.

2500 year old story with all the trappings of an Arabian Nights Tale, well developed characters, mysticism, religion, politics, family, beautiful enormous visual canvas and lots of horses. The story has an authentic feel, deals with issues of joining nomadic and proud peoples. It is a long story but worth hanging in till the end. It will lift your spirits.

I think this movie is fantastic because of how historically accurate it is and the actors did such a good job.

The scenes and atmosphere in the movie are very natural and the characters are very real, they play. I congratulate them all.

In addition, it progresses as a whole as a subject, and it may seem like it is progressing slowly to some, but I think it is in perfect consistency.

I highly recommend watching a great movie...

Tomiris ruled nomadic tribes of the Great Steppe in the 5th century BC. Little is known about those times and about her in particular. Obviously, many details of the plot had to be concocted. However, the director A. Satayev was careful by not turning a historical drama into a tale or a fantasy. A source on the Internet says that they consulted historians about every little detail of that epoch: food, dresses and dwellings.

All steppe and desert pictures were filmed in Kazakhstan. Refined cloth on ordinary people in these harsh environments would look deceitful and inappropriate. Beautiful dress embellished with gold appears only twice: during Tomiris' wedding and during the burial of her husband and son. This also conforms to the many archaeological discoveries from the tombs of chiefs of the Saka tribes, the most recent one being in 2020. Unlike Nomad: The Warrior (2005), which is full of Hollywood clichés, this movie really takes you back 25 centuries. Authenticity - that's the feeling you get. They even tried to reproduce an ancient language, which I don't think was a good idea.

Herodotus, who first wrote about Tomiris almost 100 years after her death, says that the Persian king Cyrus II was killed by her warriors in his last battle, noting that this is only one of the versions of his death. The film follows this version. Almira Tursyn made her debut as Tomiris and did a great job. Her large eyes sparkle with rage as she explains the battle plan. To unite the scattered and independent nomadic tribes, Tomiris really had to be an outstanding leader.

The plot could be more dynamic and rich, and the characters more detailed. Babylon is sketchy; a better display of its wealth would emphasize the fact that a more advanced nation was defeated by nomads. Oddity: when Al-Farabi is writing about Tomiris in arabic in the 9th century AD, they show a map where Saki-Massagets are written in Russian.

I will say I hesitated quite a bit before watching this movie largely because I have become very tired of all of the Hollywood warrior princess movies out there today. And the last thing I wanted to see was another invincible woman killing all the imbecile "bad men". However after reading some of the more credible reviews on IMDb I decided to give this a chance. And I am very glad I did. This movie is not so much about a woman warrior as it is about a woman leader and her peoples way of life. Yes Tomiris is portrayed as a fierce fighter but that is not what the movie is about instead there are a lot of great male leads in this film who carry a lot of the action. What I enjoyed most about this movie, other than learning about a small piece of history I did not know or I had simply overlooked, was the way the Director and producers made the film without engaging in any gratuitous sex, gratuitous violence, or gratuitous profanity. This is what historical movies used to be about and I really hope we see more. Unfortunately I regret that I do not have any expectations of seeing a movie like this made in the USA by an American studio. So I felt a duty to spread the word. You can find quality "inclusive" films if you look hard enough and take some time to do your homework.

I watched this today and was surprised to see so many 1 star reviews. I guess there's a lot of insecure salty nationalists here. Sure it might not be historically accurate (bear in mind you're talking about events taking place about 600 BC so the idea of historical accuracy is somewhat laughable in that context).

I gave it six stars, I thought it was overall a decent movie, a little cliched in places but with great cinematography, vast beautiful landscapes and good music. The costumes look fantastic and they clearly took a lot of time to get the look of the film. I was surprised to see that this was the lead actresses only film role to date; given that I think she did a great job. If you liked Myn Bala, Mongol, etc I would recommend this.

It's great to see movies coming out of countries where the film industry is less established and releases tend to get overlooked.

Well done authentic movie about the historical nomad queen tomiris who historians agree stopped the Persian army and killed their king. The non Hollywood pace and casting are refreshing with the costumes and cinematography capturing the feel of the nomadic tribes well. Well worth a viewing.

The comments here are nationalistic cancer and the mods should intervene and delete the ones that are not about the film but just upset that history and and Iranian nationalism do not agree what actually happened.

Still a good watch. 👍

First of all these ratings are not fair, there is a lot of 1 stars, which is totaly wrong, and also there is a lot of 10 which is bit overrated. So that some issues that don't have anything to do with the movie.

Don't have many oportunitis to watch Kazakh movie, i think this is 2nd movie from this mid asian country and i must admit i liked it.

Movie could be bit shorter or better paced but all in all its decent 7

Good thing about movie is that i really didn't knew much about Tomiris so after watching it i even googled it just to see who she was and what happend with her and that PErsian King.

Warmly recomend this movie its really good histroic war drama

Oh and one more thing i loved those landscapeds of steppe.

It takes you in. You won't regret watching it.

Iranians give low rating because they think history is deliberately distorted. I am not historian but I never thought of such a thing while watching the movie. This is a movie that based on Al-Farabi's writing, minor changes can be made to better tell the story.

The movie includes legendary historic facts. Being a radical Persian cannot be a reason to down vote this kind of pure-historic events. Because of this, I am voting 10/10 but in a normal evaluation, personally I would rate it as 7/10.

Now I do understand that for some this is way too long. I really do, I would have liked this to be way shorter myself ... but you have to take things as they are. And while this could have done with a faster pace and shorter run time, it is still a strong epic movie in some regards.

One of them being the epic fights! Really well choreographed and some amazing stunt work to be seen. Some of the drama during and within it may be a bit too much also ... but again, this is why I have not rated it higher myself. But a 1/10 seems really completely out of place, when there are other movies more deserving of that rating.

It is staggering how many movies and books were made and written about Persian history with many alterations, especially about Cyrus the Great. Interesting fact is most of the cover lies and massive distortions behind pretty acting and ignorance of the audience. Question to those who say this is based on real historical events, how many actual legitimate history books you read about Cyrus and his kingdom?

I mean no offense to the cast of this movie, but as Cyrus would do, I too invite you, the watcher and them, the cast, to think and learn.

Have a nice day.

For an Asian movie the quality is exceptional and the amount of effort the cast and the crew put in the work is fascinating. It show that good movies can be made no matter the region or culture and others should lean this by watching this movie.

About overall story, i know the main protagonist is a great symbol and her name means a lot and makes a culture proud, but if people knew about Cyrus story when he was alive, they surely would come to realization that this scenario is nearly impossible to happen.

He ruled one of the greatest empires ever existed and conquered many countries and nations During his reign that were far more powerful than this nation. How is it possible for a wild nation without any real army to defeat the forces of Persia? The army that has achieved this much was imaged as a weak army without any strategies.

Moreover, he was dedicated to human rights so much. A simple example of this fact is The Cyrus cylinder and yet, he called bloodthirsty in this movie.

If we want to consider this story as "the fact" then Cyrus died after his son was crowned which it would be HISTORICALLY wrong.

There is so many other elements that will question and reject this story.

Those people who call this scenario THE TRUTH and THE FACT has to understand it's said that the way Cyrus the great died is never known certainly and before accepting every thing that was told, try to think about it logically and with reason and if you do, you will find out that this story is more likely to be a bed time story to make a nation happy.

The movie was not good, it is a pity to see this movie

Braveheart was not a particularly accurate movie from a historical standpoint. Doesn't mean it wasn't a really good, fun movie.

I can't, and won't, speak about historical accuracy of Tomiris, as I don't know it. But I can and will give my opinion of the movie as entertainment.

It's quite enjoyable. A touch slow at times. I never liked the priest very much. But the rest is well worth your time.

If you study the real history, you will find that Iran has the longest history of civilization.Cyrus the Great was the first person in the world to write the Human Rights statement.He was one of the best and kindest the emperor in the world.You are ready to lie to the people of the world for money and that's enough to show your humiliation and lack of culture to the world.I hate those who prefer lies to truth.

Movie is mostly historical and doesn't disrespectful against Cyrus the Great. Persian people are offended but what for !? This is exactly what Herodotus said.

I dunno if the history is real or not but can't understand all these bad rewievs. Movie is watchable, has seen much worse. I recommend it to fans of the genre, enjoy.

The vast majority of Scythological scholars agree in considering the Scythian languages (and Ossetian) as a part of the Eastern Iranian group of languages.

Unfortunately this movie is awful, directing and cast choosing is bad and historically is is full of mistakes and inaccuracies.such a shame that we live in 2021 but still some people create movies on their own imaginations not documented history.Awful!

Why in this film the massagetes have physical appearance of Turkish-Mongols ?

The Massagetes was a Saka-Scythian tribe of iranic strain, so they was an indoeuropean people and they has an european physical appearance, as the ancient sources tell.

I understand that it's a kazak film but this is a very big, bad and unkillable inaccuracie.
