Wonderful character development!

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

So I heard about this movie before but I never get to watch it. I spptted Last night on Tv and I say What the hell let's watch it . I have to say the Visuals and some of the actions scenes were good but the movie overall is a Generic Fantasy film full of Cliches and Terrible Dialogues. Don't waste your time in this movie

I first watched this version in a movie theater in 2011 which only played it in 3D. I remember at the time I thought they had focused too much on digital effects and that the film was over the top. But since I am a Conan the Barbarian buff and I like Jason Momoa as an actor, I eventually decided to give it another chance and see it on DVD, this time in 2D. It was almost like I was watching a different movie and I can't for the life of me understand why I disliked it so much the first time I saw it. I remembered it being a clean, kid- friendly reboot with lots of over the top action scenes, sort of along the lines of the Marvel superhero movies, but the production design is actually very similar to the John Milius version and it's not far behind on violence and nudity. Of course, it does make use of digital effects, but by far not as often as I got the impression it did when I watched the 3D version and most of the action scenes are actually along the lines of those in the 1982 version or other more traditional sword fighting movies. Maybe I just wanted them to make a sequel to the Schwarzenegger films so badly I never gave this version a fair chance. I still think the original Conan the Barbarian is the superior movie, but now that I have watched it again without any expectations or prejudices (and in 2D), I have to admit this reboot is actually not bad at all and definitely better than the 1984 sequel they did make to the first film.

It's not great by any stretch, but then again, it's not completely terrible. It just sorta... is.I wont rehash the actors or the synopsis: there are over 300 reviews that already do that for you. My biggest complaint, above all, is the storytelling. First we're here, then we're there, then we have these new people, and they all work to save these other people, and meanwhile another group of people is running around wreaking havoc, and somehow — in this vast ménage of people — Conan manages to find himself in the middle of it all every single time.Oh, and he gets laid. But in true barbarian fashion, he leaves her. She's smiling... and probably pregnant — but she's happy. Joy.The story meanders like one of the gigantic war machines featured in the film. Perhaps you had to know Howard's novel first, but it seriously felt like the writers occasionally wrote themselves into the occasional corner and then said. "Plot twist!" before moving on in a completely new direction. And the inconsistencies! The evil witch daughter can conjure up sand demons to fight Mr. Barbarian, but somehow she cant do the same anywhere else? Are her powers limited to just sniffing around virgins and creating people from sand? I would have thought she could do much more, but maybe she spent a good time out of class.There are a few things that save it from being a complete disaster. The production design is quite good, even though Conan's giant skirt seems a bit unwieldy for a Man o Action. The women's costumes are sexy without being tacky, and the acres of leather armour are all well sculpted. Lord knows, the CG work is amazing, if pointless.Everything falling apart in the third act seemed to have mirrored the film's production — gigantic earthquakes that strike without warning or reason and a mask whose final effect was less than fearsome, a few waving tentacles and that was about it. I was waiting for the Dead to rise again when he put it on, but instead the dead seemed just as unwilling to make an appearance in this thing as I was, after a while, to watch it.

Conan The Barbarian in 3D is one of those films that you wish you could just forget that it ever happened but it happened. Jason Momoa plays Conan (kinda) and Stephen Lang is the bad guy of the story but you know the story already if you have seen the Original 1982 Classic or read the comics or even if you have played the games if you think Conan the Destroyer and Red Sonja were bad then think again because this film is awful in every step of the way. Acting, story, cgi everything is bad the movie completely lost me when they made Conan's father look like an ape and him spitting the beer in someone's else face so he can win the arm wrestle fight. It's time for Hollywood to stop remaking Schwarzenegger's Movies or even making sequels that nobody asked for.
