The film, also known as "Barbarian Conan" and "Barbarian Conan", is based on Robert Howard's comics (in 1982, Arnold Schwarzenegger also starred in a film "Barbarian Conan" adapted from this. But it has little to do with the plot of the latest movie version). The story tells the story of Conan, the barbarian king who witnessed the slaughter of his family since he was a child. In order to avenge his relatives, he embarked on a revenge journey full of all kinds of traps and dangers... It can be said that this is a "on the road" revenge feature film, including men and women A love story between the protagonists. Under the leadership of Marcus Nispel, who once directed "Frankenstein" (2004 version), "Friday the 13th" (2009 version) and other B-level horror films, the film will feature a number of action scenes. Even when describing Conan as a child, he used several action scenes to show his unyielding courage, brute force and powerful ability. In addition, the film uses more ink to describe the experience of witnessing the massacre of his relatives when he was a child, which lays the groundwork for later revenge.
And the film as a whole has become a real action film in the age of cold weapons. The relationship between the characters is mainly for the sake of cutscenes and simple explanations (and therefore some viewers may feel that the love in the film lacks foreshadowing. But The influence of my father on Conan, the director still spends a lot of space to describe), which is somewhat similar to the introduction and release of "Resident Evil 4" that year. In order to highlight the male protagonist's "barbarian king" image, in addition to the duel in the climax scene, the film often allows him to solve the opponent very cleanly, which is a little more brave and good at fighting.
In fact, "Conan the Barbarian" 30 years ago highlighted Arnold Schwarzenegger's very plump and special figure, and made him an action star, while rookie Jason Momoa is not as good in appearance. Under Arnold Schwarzenegger's sturdy conditions, the film naturally has to find another way to go out of its own way. In recent years, 3D movies have become the main trend of blockbusters, and "Sword of Kings 3D" has also been released in 3D format, especially in the opening action scene and the climax scene at the end, the 3D image strengthens the The tension and excitement of the action scenes (some of the fantasy sets in the film are also more prominent in 3D). Of course, it is also related to the fact that the film is not shot in 3D. The 3D effect of the film is not very obvious at many moments (especially in literary dramas), and the scene of Conan's duel with the water demon should have been the main action scene of the film, but unfortunately The effect is general, and there is no danger.
On the whole, because the movie version based on this comic already has the "muscle man" version of Zhuyu starring Arnold Schwarzenegger in front, the director and screenwriter took a different approach and used 3D technology to combine Conan's "barbarian king" image and action. The depiction and rendering of the scene are more realistic and realistic, which also makes the action and fighting scenes in the film more exciting and enjoyable. At the same time, in terms of literary drama, it mainly emphasizes the shadow of the soul and the flame of revenge left in the heart after witnessing the slaughter of the relatives. Typical of the current B-rated violent action movie. Of course, there are also some problems in the film. For example, in order to make the plot smoother and serve the action scenes, the setting is very simple (and it is easy for the audience to guess the ending), and the 3D effect needs to be strengthened.
