Plot: Cimmerian warrior Conan sets out on a mission of revenge but soon discovers he may be the only hope to stop a vicious warlord from conquering all of Hyboria.

Rotten Tomatoes Freshness: 26%

Critic Consensus: “While its relentless, gory violence is more faithful to the Robert E. Howard books, Conan the Barbarian forsakes three-dimensional characters, dialogue, and acting in favor of unnecessary 3D effects”
