The best Conan movie in many years. Highly recommend. Make sure to watch until after the credits!!!

Saw this movie in UK cinema on 6th October, 2024. Extremely well paced. So much happens. Lots more fighting / dynamic action than the usual DC movie, so it feels easier to watch. Lots of in-jokes as well.

Animation-wise it was stellar. Whoever directed this one brought their A-game and needs to be kept on staff. Subtitles were good but I suspect slightly improved translations might come about when it's available online.

How good was the story? Well, if you combine the pacing, animation, fast pace, inclusion of meaningful plot, ... and breaking of some old tropes, it's a great story. The best movie of the franchise since movie 14. It's the most ambitious in many ways. The characters are very believable. Hilariously bad when they try to speak English.
