Conan, the legendary Barbarian, was born on the battlefield. From those blood soaked beginnings, the fledgling warrior is destined to venture into an unforgiving world after his father is brutally murdered and his village destroyed. As he journeys through a world rife with terrifying monsters, sorcerers and bloodthirsty enemies, he chances upon Khalar Zym – the warlord responsible for his tribe's destruction. And so Conan's quest to avenge his father begins...

Conan the Barbarian review by CS
Pointless Re-Hash of a Classic

I was quite looking forward to seeing this film, being a fan of the original. However I was in for a real disappointment! The original was always a budget fantasy movie with not much in the way of a script, but this re-make is less entertaining than the original but clearly cost a lot more to make! Given that it's a fantasy sorcery style film, there isn't actually much sorcery going on, with only one real magic/sorcery scene and one monster scene, the rest is (yawn) full on sword and martial arts style fighting, which is so overdone in action films nowadays and badly at that! I found nothing redeeming about this version and found it a bore to watch, with poor acting, a bad script, average CGI and just a dull and very disappointing re-make!!
