Some of it is fun, especially when it manages to resemble the likes of Sinbad and his mythological endeavors. Go to Full Review

not nearly as painful to sit through as expected ... there's enough here to kill 90 minutes without the trade-off of losing too many brain cells Go to Full Review

See more Radio O 08/18/2024 A guilty pleasure really love Kevin in this See more Anderson O @Platinum2027 08/05/2024 I had an Idea of where they where going, because this was based on another Richard Howard created character, but Kull has it good parts, bad parts and not to good at all parts. A dated CGI that doesn’t hold up even when the movie hit threatres. Solid performance from Kevin Sorbo, despite the plot not giving him as much to work with. Aspects look as though it could have been its own TV series. See more Jonathan O 04/25/2024 A complete rip off to Conan the Barbarian and really bad joke and terrible acting and cgi effects See more 01/18/2022 Some okay performances, good art direction, a show-stealing Harvey Fierstein and an okay score can't hide Kull the Conqueror - a.k.a. the second "Not Conan 3" movie after 1985's Red Sonja (though this character actually was taken from the Robert E. Howard stories unlike the She-Devil who was based off of a comic book character who was a composite character from the original pulp tales) - from being an utterly bland, boring heroic fantasy adventure. The action isn't that great, the special effects are lame, the protagonist is a bland Conan substitute, the dialogue is corny and the story is predictable. Since I've never watched Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, I don't really have anything to say about the fact that this is just Hercules: TLJ: The Movie. All in all, what we've learned from this uninteresting fantasy action-adventure is that there's no competing with a classic and all Robert E. Howard adaptations are forever doomed to lurk in the shadows of the 1982 classic Conan the Barbarian. Are you sure it wouldn't've been a better idea to come back for the original version of this movie, Arnie?
