Oh my god, I am never getting that 113 minutes back! I think this might be the worst movie of 2011. It is is one of those movies that will need to be remade, if they have any interest of creating a successful campaign! The plot was horrific and felt like it was written by inexperienced writers.
This version of Connan should have been a made for TV film. I grew up and watched the real Connan movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger. I actually had to stop this new version of Connan and come back to it again a few days later. I guess it would have been an OK movie if you have never seen TV before. They should have named this one: Conan The Terrible
I would skip this one and invest in your time in a different film.
I rate Connan the Barbarian 2/5
