    Red Sonja is cheap looking, badly written and badly directed

    Everything about this movie is cheap. The sets, costumes, camera movements, music score, and level of acting is about equivalent to a high-school play. I could not find how much money they spent on this, but based on what I saw I would say perhaps $400k.

    What could have still saved this movie would have been if the action and sword-play was exceptional. Sadly it is not. The action is not even passable and chopped up into millions of cuts to hide how badly done it is.

    Not everything is horrible. The main actress is not bad. Lacking the charisma, beauty, and physique of Red Sonja she still manage to put in a good performance believable enough. The basic story is okay and close enough to the comic to be passable. Sonja also get her red hair and bikini-like armour (slightly more covering her body) in a natural video-game sort of a way which make sense. There are also a couple of scenes and events which elevate the movie somewhat.

    I was almost entertained and could almost emerge myself into this world. But, at the end of the day when they spend so little money and bring in a amateur director hired for box ticking reasons then it does not get better than a 3/10.

    Stay away, especially if you like the character.

    Yet another failed attempt

    What is up with the current few generations of writers? Is it really so difficult to just adapt a established story faithfully? The casting is bad, the story uninspiring, the plot is so thin, the emotions so fake, and the sets look so cheap. The only thing going for it is some CGI creatures. Really ho is this made for?

    There was no reason for this atrocity

    There was no reason to make this garbage. It's like casting Bill Skarsgard to play Conan. The movie even took away the origin story of her power and strength. I grew up reading Red Sonja and I had really hoped there would one day be a good live action adaptation. At this point I'll stick to the animations and my old comics. You really can't have someone who hates women make a movie about a beautiful female fantasy warrior. This is what you get.

    What can I say about this version of Red Sonja? Not much as it turns out and not to be confused with the 1985 version of Red Sonja (1985). I doubt there will be a second installment to this too, even though the end left it open for one. I can see that some effort was put into this movie, but it fell short to be entertaining. Reminded more of of a long episode of Merlin (2008). I don't think that I can recommend this one.

    I am dumbstruck

    This could have been such an epic movie.. Holy cow.. If you are not equipped to handle cult movies, do not get involved in those projects. I am talking to you uninspired writers and clueless directors.

    I am dumbstruck by how people can make such low IQ, zero depth, completely amateurish movies for big screen in 2025.

    I've been waiting for this movie for a long time and have not even opened the IMDB page of it to avoid spoilers.

    Oh boy, how disappointed i am.. The directing is horrible, writing is horrible, production is so cheap that i thought i was watching Xena the Warrior Princess (it was amazing for it's time, but this is 2025).

    Thank you for ruining another franchise which could've been an epic movie series.
