Synopsis:
"I live. I love. I slay. I am content." - Conan The Barbarian... The most legendary Barbarian of all time is back. Conan's exploits in the Hyborian Age now come alive like never before in a colossal 3D action-adventure film. A quest that begins as a personal vendetta for the fierce Cimmerian warrior soon turns into an epic battle against hulking rivals, horrific monsters, and impossible odds, as Conan realizes he is the only hope of saving the great nations of Hyboria from an encroaching reign of supernatural evil.

Review:
Not nearly as good as the original, just updated effects & CGI. Acting may even be worse. Nathan Jones & Bob Sapp appearances do help its EXTRA rating. Does have a few homage remakes or tribute shots to the original which were nice to see.
