10	Conan the Barbarian (1982) more movies like this directed by John Milius featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger, James Earl Jones, Max von Sydow, Sandahl Bergman, Ben Davidson John Milius's jingoistic direction and pulpy screenplay fit perfectly into this film version of the Robert E.

11 view cover	Never Say Never Again (1983) more movies like this directed by Irvin Kershner featuring Sean Connery, Klaus Maria Brandauer, Max von Sydow, Barbara Carrera, Kim Basinger The title of the 1983 James Bond adventure Never Say Never Again is a self-mocking reference to star Sean Connery's insistence back in 1971 that he would never play Bond again.
