Review of Conan the Barbarian (2011) by Xiphus200 — 18 Aug 2011
I've been a fan of Conan for a while, having read Robert E Howard's original stories and the comic books that have followed. I thought the movie did a good job of capturing the spirit of Conan and while the plot may be formulaic I was still entertained the whole way through.
The movie touches on all the staples one would find in Robert E Howard tales and I thought that Jason Momoa played a convincing Conan, able to portray his barbaric savagery and cunning. I enjoyed watching this movie very much and would love to see Jason Momoa return to the screen as Conan.
