"MONGOL" | Lakeland

A ferocious film, blood-soaked, pausing occasionally for passionate romance and more frequently for torture. As a visual spectacle, it is all but overwhelming, putting to shame some of the recent historical epics from Hollywood. If it has a flaw, and it does, it is expressed succinctly by the wife of its hero: "All Mongols do is kill and steal." At the end of two hours, its hero, not yet known as Genghis Khan, has two more movies to go. Awesome, if you go for nonstop carnage. Rated R; for sequences of bloody warfare. 126 min. Reviewed by Roger Ebert of Universal Press Syndicate.

WHEN: 7:30 p.m.

TICKETS: $6 adults, $4 seniors/students.

LOCATION: Polk Theatre.

PHONE: 682-7553.
