...doesn’t need a laugh-track; there’s such a succession of such weird miscalculations, it’s inevitable that you’ll end up making your own entertainment... Go to Full Review
Alan Jones Starburst Aug 1, 2022
Ator is a film so grossly incompetent on every conceivable level that it makes any detailed critical analysis pointless. Go to Full Review

1/10
It's an incredibly tame take on wicked tyrants, muscular fighters, scantily-clad warrior women, and seductive sorceresses. Go to Full Review

gungi T @WhatWhere Sep 16, 2026 It's an exciting notion of characterisation when the hero and protagonist of a film's opening sequence proposes an incestuous marriage. As Ator embarks on his straightforward journey, his trusty bear cup carries more appeal. Despite Miles O'Keeffe's appearance being in line with the aesthetic of these films, he lacks exuberance and extravagance, and is as dull as they come. The story centres on a prophecy and incorporates giant animals, shapeshifters, an exotic cult leader and a brave warrior who is so courteous that he saves Ator, watches him grow up and trains him, only to reveal that he wants to kill him all along. Fascinating. See more xpig332 B @RT69712065 Oct 14, 2025 Brutally lame & boring! See more Feb 4, 2021 Ator the Fighting Eagle comes to the land of myth and legend, only to disappoint with one of the most cliched and worst sword and saddle films of all time. See more Sep 10, 2018 Incest, Miles O'Keeffe, and a baby bear? Who cares if it's incoherent beyond measure and incompetent beyond belief, just so long as you've got the RiffTrax commentary to carry you through. SECOND VIEWING: Imagine taking all of the byzantine mythology of something like LOTR or CONAN, then stripping it of character, depth, and coherenceâ"throw in a little incest, and this is the stink you get. See more Dec 31, 2017 B-class at its best! See more Feb 14, 2016 Everything about this barbarian movie feels cheap. The storyline is weak, the storytelling is clumsy and the editing is rough. The scene in which Ator tries to convince his father to marry his own sister after confessing his love to her is priceless. See more Read all reviews
