CONAN SET:

CONAN THE BARBARIAN(1982)

An overly long movie starring Arnold Schwartenneger
as the comic book hero Conan, with James Earl Jones
as the main baddy! It's pretty bloody, quite a bit of nudity
and very little dialogue! Course, what would you expect
from a movie called Conan The Barbarian? LOL! Not a
terrible movie, just bloody!! B-

From IMDb.com:

A brutally cool movie. All the characters struggle against
a system that has perpetuated falsehoods. There are
fisticuffs back and forth. From an artistic standpoint, there
were some plot elements and character developments I
didn't think were totally needed. They do, however, drive
the story, which seemed to be their purpose, so I can accept
them. The kind of film that proves that a small story can
be much more meaningful than a larger one. Arnold is a
unique presence in American cinema and hopefully this is
a sign that he will do more of these kinds of austere,
gripping character pieces more often in the future.
7/10. - Harriet Deltubbo

I actually liked this one better than the first! First off
it's not nearly as long and drawn out! Secondly, the
script is much better, with much better dialogue! The
music and general feel of the film is much lighter and
appropriate for the movie! All-in-all, not bad! B

From IMDb.com:

I have been captivated by Conan's heroic fantasy world
for many years. For this reason alone I am rating this
film as 6/10. Do not expect a continuation of the first
Conan film. 'Conan The Destroyer' is too light in its scope
and Conan is not the same man anymore. The villains
are also not as menacing.

Having said that it was good to see Grace Jones and
Sarah Douglas and also Conan's companions had good
lines and were very funny at times.

As a side note I found the adjective 'Destroyer' in the
title quite misleading and unfortunate. For those of
us that read the Conan novels we see Conan driven
by his own motivations, and fighting his battles only
if he had to and not for the sake of destroying. The
film distributors could have picked something else
to promote the movie. - margbcon (margbcon@yahoo.com)
