Red Sonja Reviews

Red Sonja isn't camp enough to be funny, just boring.

| Jul 22, 2022

A highly-entertaining swords and sandals epic which plays on the talents of both leads.

| Jul 16, 2022

...sword and sorcery buffoonery...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 24, 2021

None of this would matter if Red Sonja was the least bit exciting, or sexy, or even funny. Instead, it`s lumbering, oddly prim and laughable.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jul 14, 2015

This is a sword-and-sorcery adventure for those who like their action fast and furious, their dialogue ropey and their acting filled with more ham than a butcher's shop.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 14, 2015

If you are rapt by swollen muscles, heaving bosoms, swordplay and a tirade of hammy, fantasy claptrap, the woefulness of this film won't put you off.

| Jul 14, 2015

The title sounds as if this movie is about a communist spy, or maybe a new flower. No such luck.

| Jul 14, 2015

The film is at least as good as Conan the Destroyer. Which is faint praise, indeed.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Aug 26, 2011

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 19, 2011

Sure, there are a few funny moments here and there with several obviously intended jokes, but director Richard Fleischer never milks the elements of self-parody for what they're worth.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jul 9, 2010

The dialogue passages don't exactly play like Noel Coward, but this is a movie that succeeds rousingly well on its own humble, Saturday-night terms.

| Jul 9, 2010

Red Sonja returns to those olden days when women were women and the menfolk stood around with funny hats on until called forth to be whacked at.

| Mar 26, 2009

Worst of all, there's a charmless brat prince for Sonja to take under her wing.

| Jun 24, 2006

It's a truly horrible concoction, filled with stiff, overly serious dialogue, wretched performances, bad lighting and a lazy score by the otherwise great Ennio Morricone.

| Original Score: 1/4 | May 26, 2006

Unwatchably bad sword-and-sorcery nonsense.

...pure silliness, but not silly enough to qualify as amusing. Face it; it's just dull.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Aug 23, 2004

Hilariously awful

No, he's NOT Conan this time!
