Review of Conan the Barbarian (2011) by Bruce722 — 29 Nov 2012

I didn't think this movie was even remotely as bad as most people did. The acting wasn't good or anything but it wasn't terrible and I've seen a lot worst. The fight scenes were kinda cool and the story progressed well.

I was hoping they would get rid of all that stupid mystical mumbo jumbo and corny sorcery crap but unfortunately they did not and that is really what hurt the movie the most in my opinion. It's essentially a way to tell the story with very lazy writing.

Overall, I thought this was an entertaining action movie. There were some flaws like below average acting by the protagonist and the ridiculous magical stuff but I still thought it was a much better movie than the original.
