"(Milius) doesn't seem to have thought about what sort of movie Conan should be."

The New York Times

"Match verdict: no goals, slow build-up, but much absorbing action off the ball."

—

Time Out

"What's nice is that (Schwarzenegger and Bergman)... create entertaining versions of their characters; they, and the movie, are not without humour and a certain quiet slyness..."
