'Conan the Barbarian,' starring Jason Momoa and Rachel Nicholas is a 3D movie shot in Bulgaria. It is the story of Conan, a poor barbarian boy, who watches his parents die and learns to be the most barbaric of all barbarians. The movie is definitely not for the weak hearts are it has a lot of violence in it. Well that's what you get when it comes from German-born director Marcus Nispel responsible for making the 2003 remake of 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' and 2009's 'Friday the 13th.' But, there are few childish romantic moments too in it.
The movie is set in the fictional Hyborian Age, where monsters and sorcery were big threats and people were not too civilized. Not attempting to replicate the Schwarzenegger version with more humour and less violence, the new movie shows only a troubled ancient world of warring tribes, vestal virgins, lethal swords, dungeons, torture chambers and Machiavellian monsters.
Although cinematographically strong, the 113 minutes movie is beastly, brutal and a mess of English and America accents.

Denise Richard's book, 'The Girl Next Door' is being made into a movie. Producers are very keen in converting the book into a movie. The actress' memoir includes all the juicy details of her love life- Divorcing Charlie Sheen in 2006, having an affair with Bon Jovi guitarist, Richie Sambora, etc.
The producers feel that it has a very intriguing content where a girl next door becomes a bond babe, marries an actor and ends up raising her kids single handedly rather than pursuing her movie career. They have no doubts regarding the movie's success.
The pretty movie starlet was in fact quite shocked at the success of her book which stayed on the New York Times best seller list for 2 weeks. Denise who is a mother to 3 kids plans to make a comeback soon.

The film reviews state that Captain America is full of pulpy action, has a pleasantly retro vibe, and a handful of stellar performances. The overall reviews of this movie report that Captain America is a solidly old fashioned blockbuster entertainment film.
