Us Rating: ***

Game of Thrones hottie Jason Momoa -- reprising the role that built Arnold Schwarzenegger -- hunts both his dad's killer (Stephen Lang) and the villain's witchy daughter (Rose McGowan) in this pulpy reboot.

Though the adventure gushes with blood (there's an amateur C-section on the battlefield), it's also packed with thrills and sexy romance. Plus, the sight of Momoa's torso stretching into the audience is a prime reason to see a 3-D movie this summer!
