  Conan the Barbarian review :)

  by

  This movie was better than I excepted it to be. There was action pretty much the entire movie, which is what I really like. Conan's acting was quite good. He actually acted how a barbarian should. The special effects were great. One problem I had with it was that the blood spurts at times were a little over the top on some scenes. Other than that, I really enjoyed it and would see it again when it comes out on dvd.
  
  When it says Rated R, it isn't being put lightly. There is quite a bit of nudity, and the violence is quite graphic and gory. I strongly recommend that ages 16 and below don't watch this. If you don't like watching movies with a lot of nudity or very graphic violence, don't watch this.

  Entertaining but silly

  by entropicangel42

  I thought this remake would be gratuitous, but I actually enjoyed this mindless, fantasy-action flick. Conan seeks revenge against the man who killed his father and destroyed his village.

  Not as bad some people say.

  by movie-fan_ colts

  Sure, this movie could have been better. But overall I thought the special effects were good and it had a entertaining plot. Certain scenes were really intense while others were down right stupid, (the severed head with the opening eyes, the man's nose getting cut off). Without the few cheesy effects this movie would have been a pretty good blockbuster I think.

  Conan Review

  by imax2the max

  I really enjoyed the movie! I liked it more than the Arnold movie. This newer version explained more--a lot more. Also, Momoa's body type better fits the Conan concept. Momoa is muscled an agile. Arnold, Mr. Universe that he was, was indeed very bulked. Conan needs to be very agile. Again, really liked the movie--soundtrack was good too.

  This Should Have Been A Comedy--It's So Bad Parts Were Hilarious.

  by Alon Patterson

  Rarely, among the literal hundreds of movies I see on screen each year, do I walk out before the end. This one and only two others in my lifetime bears that distinction. I stayed for plenty though, more than an hour and ten in fact. The first forty minutes were so funny I had to leave the theater twice because I couldn't stop laughing. It was that bad. I thought I might disturb the other person in the theater that seats 800 that was dumb enough, like me, to buy a ticket this piece of film-like non-entertainment. They must have spent a 'gaziliion' dollars on this thing but I'm convinced it must either have been a tax write-off or some hollywood mogul's brother-in-law project. The high point of the whole ordeal was when old conehead, I mean Conan, freed the topless slave girls, who should have kept their tops on because two looked more like boys to me. This was genuinely AWFUL. There's just nothing nice I can say. Don't rent it, don't watch it on pay TV. Stay away. It's toxic.

  Not what I expected

  by GeminiRose22

  I definitely think that Jason Momoa did a good job as Conan. I hope to see him in more action/adventure movies soon. As far as the rest of the movie goes, it wasn't bad but, nothing I'll get on DVD. Most of the acting was sub-par and I found myself getting bored in the the middle of the movie (this coming from a person who loves action movies). There was a lot of blood and gore, which was to be expected. I left the theater unsatisfied. 5/10

  awesome movie

  by jysnwlsn

  They should not have called it Conan the Barbarian. Maybe, just plain Barbarian would have worked. He is no Arnold and the story did not follow the original movie but, it still was a good movie.
