Ronal the Barbarian

Ronal is a skinny, weak, good for nothing member of the barbarian clan who happens to be the only one who hasn't been captured by the evil Lord Volcazar (who plans to sacrifice all barbarians to god Zaal for his immortality). Advised by a shaman that only a sacred sword can defeat Volcazar, he must find it before it's too late together with a couple of friends found along the way. This movie is a parody of Conan the Barbarian and King Arthur's Excalibur. All sequences are treated in a very funny and entertaining manner, which makes it a great comedy. Although I had some problems understanding it (it's Danish so I had to follow all the subtitles), it will make you laugh or at least put a smile on your face very often. Although it's not a big title, it has good action and quite a good story but it's a bit too predictable and superficial and it leaves you with a feeling that it was a low budget movie (although its producers could have avoided this problem). I think this is a good movie, especially for the animation and comedy fans!

Danish fantasy animation promises bawdy humor and comical eye-popping gore but chickens out on both aspects. Ronal is the least likeliest barbarian in company of Kingdom's greatest warriors now threatened by evil Lord Volcazar with typical plan to rule the world. When the Lord's army captures his fellow barbarians, it's up to Ronal and his equally inept friends Alibert the bard & Elric the gayest elfin ever in fantasy lore to stop Volcazar. Thanks to blind luck, they stumbled upon Zandra - young female warrior on quest of her own. With the feisty girl on their side, the boys have a fighting chance. Parody of Arnold's Conan and Lords of the Rings is adequate time-filler. Made in 3-D.

Great Adventure through a Conan the Barbarian and Red Sonja spoof. This thing pulls few punches (and punchlines) in Ronal's epic "not a quest" to save his tribe from being used as a sacrifice to an evil god to take over the world. There's a minuscule similarity to How to Train yer Dragon but that was a Viking spoof. Balls jokes, Boob jokes, Sex jokes (straight and gay), and some nice cartoon style blood and guts. Some are critical of the animation, but lets face it, this movie is more about making a few nutsack jokes and less about trying to wow the world with state of the art CGI. The Animation is decent and watchable. See it if you have a sense of humor. Avoid it if "Triggered" is part of your vocabulary and has noting to do with guns.

This is a fun little outing and they did a great job on the English dub. This has some elements of Conan Barbarian type fantasy but it is much more in the vein of Lord Of The Rings. The main bad guy looks like Sauron, there are elves like in Lord Of The Rings (LOTR) and they even speak like the elves in the LOTR movies. There is an awesome parody character of Legolas who is hilarious. There is even Runic script and Elvish script (Tengwar) depicted in one scene. There are bad guys called Black Riders who also fly on creatures like the Nazgul. So, if you are into a High Fantasy parody that does not take itself too seriously, would like a few laughs, and can appreciate more than a few nods to Lord Of The Rings long the way, then I recommend this animated comedy. The violence is depicted in a non-gory or fun way, so if you don't like graphic depictions of violence then you should be fine to watch this movie without being freaked out.
