Alright, finally some extra time away from the chains of education. And what better way to use that time, but for movies and bitchin'.
This one, as you all might have suspected and probably felt, is a total risk taker. Everyone remembers their first time seeing Conan. I mean, how could you not? Only Arnold's appearance is enough for you to feel like you've just been punched in the face. And after that, whether you're a fan of the comic or not, whenever you heard the name Conan, you instantaneously thought Schwarzenegger! The original movies also came with an unbelievable sense of adventure, might and spirituality. The new one, however, did not.
The story is extremely monotonous and doesn't really provide something solid to grip on to get you through. The cast is also ridiculous, in my humble and insignificant opinion. True, I would fuck the brains out of Jason Momoa if I were a chick, but a Conan he is not. Not because he lacks the physical constitution, far from it - he is almost a perfect match to the comic book Conan. However, his acting really needs work. I'm not sure who's to blame, him or the writers - but he failed in every emotional aspect and just couldn't connect with the audience. Rose McGowan is freaky, Ron Perlman rocks. That's about it.
Wait, wait! What about the action sequences, you ask? They're probably the only thing done right, but in all honesty, those are mediocre as well.
If you're bored or a Conan fan, watch it. Just so that you could say you've seen it.
5 out of 10.
