It was better than I expected it to be. Brutally violent, and action is pretty much non-stop. If you enjoy three dimensional character development, then I would stay away from this one. If you're a Conan fan then you will want to check this one out. I was disappointed when Momoa was originally cast, but I have to say that he really pulled it off. I think they really captured the spirit of Howard's vision...he's just a mean sunuvabitch, and he has that certain Sean Connery way with the ladies.
