It is a puzzling mystery about the task of a barbaric man trained in the art of war. The Barbarian man is trying to join a group of thieves and his goal is to solve the steel puzzle, which seems to be a major dilemma in front of him. Another task of the man is to know the evil magician who has exterminated his entire people, on a dangerous mission but everything planned before and under implementation.
There is a real anticipation as Schwarzenegger is unveiled as the barbarian and sets off on the road to independence. But for whatever reasons, the actor has a minimum of dialog and fails to convey much about the character through his actions.
