Ronal is a young barbarian with low self-esteem, the polar opposite of all the muscular barbarians in his village. He's a real wuss. However, as fate would have it, responsibility for the tribe's survival falls on Ronal's scrawny shoulders, when the evil Lord Volcazar raids the village and abducts every living barbarian with the exception of Ronal, who is forced to go on a perilous quest to save his enslaved clan and thwart Volcazar’s plot to rule the world.… Expand
Okay, so, this movie is, as the cover should already tell you, fucked up to some degree. 😁
But I think it's fucked up in a funny way. Ronal is a relatively standard "fantasy story": Gather your group of adventurers to get an artifact to defeat the forces of evil.
But it does that with a ton of jokes all on a level of "I'm horny, we're all sexy, let's party and beat up baddies!".
This...doesn't sound as funny as the movie depicts it. But really: Half-naked Barbarians with barely covered butts, Barbarian women that crush enemies with their boobs, talks and jokes about balls, tits and fucking, but a main cast that, mostly, is really friendly and lovable despite their crude humor. Ronal just wants to be useful for his people, Zandra lovingly combines being an awesome, hardcore warrior while searching for someone to love and Alibert, who first seems like someone who just wants party and women, is a kindhearted and loyal friend.
The bad guys are leather-clad BDSM guys that could be straight-up out of "Brütal Legend" and they even sing a song about getting hard in their leather pants.
So, yeah, you have to be able to stand some over-the-top, crude humor and many half naked people and a quite big amount of cock-bulges. But if you are able to do this, it's a really silly, funny fantasy journey.
Elric the elf was basically the only character that was a bit...too much for me, because he's basically just a comical relieve character without any proper personality besides being over-the-top-"elvish".
So, yeah, if you like metal (music), oiled-up-barbarians, sex jokes and battles, you should enjoy this.
Maybe it's because I'm German and grew up with the "Werner" movies and comics, but I enjoyed it. 😁… Expand
