Basado en los relatos de R.E.Howard.Si bien la narrativa es bastante lineal con pocas sorpresas, logra por momentos llamar la atencion o por lo menos a mi =P. La fotografia e interpretacion de los actores es pasable, solo acompañan, mientras que el sonido y la musicalizacion logran darle una buena mano a ciertas escenas. En cuanto a la direccion creo que no fue del todo acertada, por que cuando tenes poco presupuesto lo mejor es simplificar las ideas antes de querer realizar escenas a lo Joligu.

Bland and monotone fantasy-cliché, that takes way to long at getting to what it's all about: Chopping evil minions to pieces with a broad-sword. Even though the notion of a sword wielding puritan hero is a bit laughable, James Purefoy is solid enough to make it watchable, if only just.

Film based on the eponymous character created by Robert E. Howard. Violent soldier cursed by Satan returns to his birthplace in search of redemption. Beautiful photography, good art direction, interesting plot and central character. All that fades into a structure that involves unconvincing effects, good actors underutilized, and a course that rarely involves or touches.

15 years ago I would've thought this was the raddest movie ever. Sure, it has (a rather Warhammer-y) atmosphere and a few cool individual moments, but on the other hand it's oh so serious, simple and grimy. Seriously, I haven't seen this many dirty people in a film since that day I discovered my grandfather's scat porn collection.

Kinda corny and predictable, but you have to expect that somewhat with a fantasy action movie. It's got solid action and decent effects and some cool creatures. You could do a lot worse if you like this sort of stuff.

What a movie! A hero's epic quest to save his soul. A heartless sorcerer bent on raising hell! Demons, witchcraft, and dark magic stand against Solomon Kane, a highly skilled killer, trying desperatly to save himself from the Devil's clutches!

É né. Já vi melhores!!!

Rather high production value, a nice score and one cool monster is (yet again) no match for a lousy script, convoluted story and quite a few horrondous performances.

Gotik atmosferinde kusur yok fakat klise filmin her yerinde. Turun sevenleri icin izlenebilir seviyede, onun disinda izlemeye gerek yok.

The story of Solomon Kane was worth to shoot, but not that way. Purefoy's got no charisma and the story how they wrote was predictable and poorly paced. There was some good cinematography and I liked the daylight fearing under the floor people, but director did not get the best out of them and they were acted lame.

If it wasn't for decent soundtrack this would be rated aprox. 30. Very poor acting and overall performance.

Boring story, bad acting, lackluster directing and unimpressive action. Looks good every now and then, but that's it. Like Van Helsing but actually worse

Great opening for a film, especially the devil's reaper

Amusing

Okey, I just kept thinking "van helsing,van helsing,van helsing" while watching this film. The main difference - Van Helsing was way much better.

Easy to watch with some good fight scenes. Naturally predictable but doesn't detract from the action.

Purefoy kicks all sorts of demon's ass in this straightforward Fantasymovie. Great fights and cool cinematography keep you wanting more despite the sometimes modest budget (especially with the final demon).

It's like Lord of the Rings - only with fewer (i.e. no) whiny hobbits and more decapitations. Solomon Kane can kick Frodo's scrawny, little ass any day.

Well, got this Lord of the Rings feeling, was definetly the creators inspiration. Off course not worthy the comparison, but it was still better than i thought it would be

Wasn't that predictable?..

Well.....I was never bored, I'll give it that, and it contains some nice cinematography, but the ending is just one big wtf?!!

Sometimes corny and a bit predictable, but generally entertaining if you're into the whole dark medieval/blood/ demons thing.

Murky and lifeless fantasy fluff. If you were offended by the christian undertones in Narnia, I'd steer clear of this one, as there's some full on Captain Invisible worship going on here. In fact, Glenn Beck is probably barfing his yarbles to this particular piece of cinema just as you're reading this. Enjoy that image.

works for me ... thumbs up

Injustement méconnu, sorti en catimini chez nous. Sans prétention, beau et punchy, du bon cinéma tourné dans les pays de l'Est. Du gothique pas trop cheap pour une fois. PSI deviné par Criticker au point près !

Not a complete loss. The ministories and general mood of the first half are way more interesting than the main arc and frustrating ending. While the 3D job is reasonable, the composites are piss poor.

Solomon Kane is precisely the sort of character that a prepubescent boy who enjoys roleplaying games would dream up. A "badass" anti-hero who wears a quaker hat, has jesus tattoos, and dual wields swords is as cheesy as it gets. You can't fault this film too much though because despite its overwhelming flaws it is fun in a B-movie way. The film is surprisingly technically competent but the extremely dumb storyline and poor acting by the lead (James Purefoy) doesn't help.

A lot like the campy adventure movies from the 80s, but with better cinematography. The dirtiness of the sets and characters gives the movie a very authentic feel. No pearly-toothed peasants in this fantasy settings. However, some poor acting and cheesey lines eventually pull the moie down. Though, I do recommend it for a lazy summer-night watch. At least try to get pas the first scene.

It's been a while since I watched this, but for the life of me, I can't really remember what happened in it. I remember I enjoyed the very dark feeling of the movie and it was watchable, but indeed, you'll forget the movie soon enough after watching it.
