Yes. Savage Worlds. It's simple but powerful. There's even a free test drive:

Otherwise, I really like ORK! It's very light but comical.

I recently reviewed a short PDF called Space and Steel that certainly fits the requirements.

FATE. Currently implemented in the wonderful Spirit of the Century, but that has quite a few pages.
But FATE itself is dirt simple and fun as hell.

For something different, try BASH

It is a super heroes game, but there is also a fantasy version. By far the simplest supers game I have found.

There's one I like to call "make believe". Not rules, RP anything you want, everything is balanced, anything goes.
The current incarnation of the D&D Basic Game is that simple, too, if you want something more structured with funny-shaped dice.

All good suggestions. Basic Fantasy roleplay, FATE, and Savage Worlds are the ones I would most likely go for. Plus there is the one I did go for. At first mostly because it meshes/unifies all editions of D&D very well, so all the bookshelves of books I have been keeping for years and decades are all useful again. Since then I have found the SIEGE mechanic to be very flexible and very friendly to house rules.
So you may want to give Castles and Crusades a look. People who discover it often post "after reading it last night..." and being anxious to start up a game/convert over. So I am pretty sure most people would find it quick and easy to learn.
Our boards often have threads titled, "I can't believe how friendly it is around here!" So if you want to check it out and ask questions go to the forum linked to trolllord.com and sign up. We'll be happy to help.
