Anyone agree? Hell, the young Conan put in a better performance. I like Perlman but he looked totally disinterested and bored, sleep walking through the role. He put in a better performance in the Uwe Boll schlock Dungeon Siege, at least that was more energetic. When a good actor inexplicably puts out bad a performance it' usually because of a weak director.
In the face of what he was given, his performance was actually astounding... He did indeed seem bored and only going through the motions, but it doesn't matter who you are - You cannot polish a turd.

I have to say that IMO any movie with Ron Pearlman and/or Rose McGowan is going to be a weak film.
Agreed. The most disinterested performance i've seen from him aside from his last season on Sons of Anarchy.
He's a great actor, but when he doesn't give a crap you can totally read it in his performance.
Due to the lack of moderators, trolls can ruin the IMDB message boards. Don't feed them.
Ron Perlman was a last minute replacement for Micky Rourke as Conan's father, who physically would have been a much better choice. Perlman seemed to have just phoned in his performance in this...
shareCongratulations you've played yourself
shareI like Ron in everything he does. Just an A list actor as far as I'm concerned, and the Hollywood directors and producers love him. Hardest working man in Hollywood.
