It feels like it was made by a well-intentioned committee- everybody had a reasoned, thoughtful discussion about what should be in a Conan movie, and then they made one to those specifications. (I get the same impression from the current crop of Marvel movies, but they generally turn out better than this). Milius' CONAN had it's flaws, but it was a full-blooded, rousing swashbuckler that felt like a real MOVIE MOVIE. This new one feels like a pilot for a tv series.

Andy Sheets wrote: Yeah, this was painful. It's really not a Conan movie anymore than the original, but at least the original had some ambition behind it. It seems to me that the makers of the new one merely aspired to be as good as the cheap Conan knock-offs of the 1980s, except I'm not sure they even managed that. Momoa was okay, though.
