 A b-grade version of "Jeremiah Johnson"(even though the storylines are totally different......) November 10, 2009
Conan the Barbarian
This is a really dissapointing film overall. The film has the look of a cheezy 50's b-grade western but was filmed in the late 70's shortly after Robert Redford's classic "Jeremiah Johnson" was filmed. This film is obviously trying to ride the coat tails of that film and it shows in the overall b-grade presentation. The film score is about as hammy as it gets and the acting is simply atrocious, even from the main characters such as Charlton Heston. The native americans are protrayed very poorly here, they are just cookie cutter hollywood stereotypes that have nothing interesting aside from the lame action sequences. This is the sort of film that you would expect the guys from MST3K to be coining classic one-liners at, some of the parts are so bad it turns out to be absolutely hilarious and that is why I give it 2 stars.
Good movie but needs to be in widescreen format September 16, 2009

One of Charlton Heston's lesser known movies, nevertheless a great pick for anyone that wants to have fun watching a movie about the 1800's fur trade. Brian Keith steals the show in a great performance as Heston's sidekick as they trap beaver and fight Indians in the Grand Tetons. My only complaint is that this DVD should have been released in a widescreen format as the original VHS release was.

Just plain good fun. Heston and Brian Keith are great together. Sit back, enjoy the scenery and the humor and experience a part of western history that did not last all that long.

I bought this movie when I saw it recently at a grocery store. It didn't live up to my expectations. This movie features an ageing Heston and Brian Keith. Now of course I knew this coming in, but that isn't really the problem. The problem comes in how preposterous it was to see these two old guys fighting off indians and whatnot with relative ease. The movie is just plain bad. I honestly had trouble sitting through it. This movie tries to be harsh, using profanity and sexual situations. It then tries to be a movie for the family using comedy. This movie is nothing but one big jumble of mixed themes and intentions. I'm giving this movie three stars because I like Charlton Heston and Brian Keith. Just don't sit down with this movie expecting to be satisfied with the plot of the movie, or the flow, the tone, the logic. Just sit down and study these ageing actors and be glad we have this glimpse into their later years. It's hard to believe that this movie was less than a decade later after films like Soylent Green, The Omega Man, Gray Lady Down. Heston put on a lot of weight. He hobbles around the way I have seen him in other films. I think the man had back problems. I am simply saying that their is nothing dynamic at all about Heston in this picture. I think Brian Keith has more charm and appeal in this film, even though all he does is act like a rough and rowdy mountain man.
Sorry guys, but this movie is far from great. Thanks anyway, really. :)
