Review of Conan the Destroyer (1984) by Andrew K — 11 Nov 2012
A waste of a sequel! Every strength of the first film is cast into a pit and shat on - replaced by out-and-out fantasy magic, crap SFX, camp 'comedy', mind-numbing side-kicks and pointless fights that nobody could possibly care about.
The Conan films were envisaged as a continuing series, and this abomination pretty much derailed all that. There are, however, a couple of imaginative set-pieces, but that's all. Shame. (NB. if you want more of Ursa from Superman II, this is pretty much the only place to get her.
).
