yes, it was weak, but Jason Momoa was perfect as Conan - mbnx01 18:00:02 08/19/11 (0)
But he couldn't carry the weak script, bad casting, etc.

It reminded me of an Indiana Jones movie. One stupid stunt, fight, chase scene after another with no story or interesting characters.

For the hard-core Conan fans only (you know who you are).

but thanks anyway - I suppose there was an infinitesimal chance it just may not have completely sucked!

    As the head of the makeup department I'll have to accept this as my first negative review on Conan the Barbarian.

That bad! It didn't appeal to me when I saw the trailer. I did read an excellent review of the Fright Night remake.

  ...in 3D.
  
  Reveiw said all sorts of things come out of the screen at you - like the old ones.
  
  And it's suppose to be funny.
  
  As to Conan, I used to read the comics and thought the artist Barry Smith was the best.
  
  No interest in seeing this one.
  - If you are going to see it DONT see it in 3D - Analog Scott 12:36:26 08/20/11 (0)
    It destroys the image quality. In 2D (the wa it was shot) it is much richer looking. The 3D is borderline unwatchable. If nothing else this is a pretty good looking flick. But only in 2D
- This is the Electrolux of remakes.....saw it in 2D and can't see.... - mr grits 17:07:43 08/19/11 (0)
  any advantages to it being in 3D.
are you crazy? I'll send you an aspirin! :^) - PhilJ 14:47:49 08/19/11 (0)
at first I thought O'Brien...
