Movie Review: Conan (2011)


23 Aug

Enjoyed the new Conan movie tremendously. It was very Conan- both in terms of the old Arnie movies and the Howard books.

There’s lots of blood, a substantial amount of nudity, and plenty of cheesy one liners. What’s not to love?

Plus, Jason Mamoa is much more enjoyable to look at than Arnie. He just is. And regardless of what you think of his acting skills, his speaking skills are such that he can do more than yell “Krom!”.

I am very much hoping that they choose to franchise this and that we see more of Conan and his friends.

There are a few upcoming movies that we will definitely see in the theater.  Coming soon is the new Conan, and then there’s John Carter of Mars (whenever it’s due out), and this weekend, we saw a preview for a new Three Musketeers movie. I MUST see this.

I love Three Musketeers movies, especially the ones that do not take themselves seriously. This new on has Orlando Bloom as a bad guy, zeppelin battles- that’s right, there are airships in the new Musketeers, and, as icing on the cake, Ray Stevenson (known to Rome fans as Titus Pullo) as Porthos.
