(mca) Release Date: 07/24/2007 Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger James Earl Jones Run time: 130 minutes Rating: R Director: John Millus Amazon.com essential video: Conan the Barbarian, the movie that turned Arnold Schwarzenegger into a global superstar, is a prime example of a match made in heaven. It's the movie that macho maverick writer-director John Milius was born to make, and Arnold was genetically engineered for his role as the muscle-bound, angst-ridden hero created in Robert E. Howard's pulp novels. Oliver Stone contributed to Milius's screenplay, and the production design by comic artist Ron Cobb represents a perfect cinematic realization of Howard's fantasy world. To avenge the murder of his parents, Conan tracks down the evil Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones) with the help of Queen Valeria (played by buff B-movie vixen Sandahl Bergman) and Subotai the Mongol (Gerry Lopez). Aptly described by critic Roger Ebert as 'the perfect fantasy for the alienated pre-adolescent,' this blockbuster is just as enjoyable for adults who haven't lost their youthful imagination. --Jeff Shannon Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - One of my favorite B-movie actioners B-movie perfection. Milius knows his material and doesn't try to make do anything it can't. Conan isn't deep, doesn't brood over the meaning of life, he only wants vengeance on his parents murderer, his own enslaver and anyone who gets in the way of either. Max von Sydow makes a hilarious cameo as King Osric whose wayward daughter has taken up with cult leader played to the hilt by James Earl Jones (I've often wondered, given the relative proximity in time to the Jonestown mass-murder, ... Read More Rating: - Should have been more I have always been a big fan of Robert E. Howard's Conan series (I have them all), and have had a VCR copy of "Conan the Barbarian" since first seeing it in the theatres in 1982. I was disappointed in the only attempted "sequel" ( "Conan the Destroyer"), and have always been even more disappointed that other attempts haven't been made to tell more of Howard's imaginative Conan series....especially in the age of CGI movies, which would seem to create endless possibilities in translating more of the Conan ... Read More Rating: - Highly recommended for fans of the Sword & Sorcery movies! "Conan the Barbarian" is full of violence, blood, gore, sex, nudity, and substance abuse. Being a father of 3, that makes this movie one of my biggest guilty pleasures! Several observations: * James Earl Jones is fantastic as the understatedly evil Falsa Doom * "Arni" is the perfect Conan...buff, brusk, and focused * The cinematography is just outstanding * Great music score * Not for kids (for reasons listed above) This is a very good action ... Read More Rating: - Made my husband very happy when he got this My husband has been looking for this movie at the video stores around town & no one had it so I ordered it from Amazon - he was so surprised & excited. Rating: - dated but satisfying It has loads of blood & dismemberment & some softcore sex (how could someone make such a movie and get elected governor?;) I guess we're just lucky "W" wasn't a weightlifter) But it's the story of Conan and this is what Conan does if you've read any of the books or comic books (and Arnold looks like he's straight out of a comic book). Arnold did fine w/the dialogue he was given, which is pretty sparse. It's definitely heavy on the action side. It's a very simple story, but action keeps it moving, ...
