Here is my full reaction for Masters Of The Universe!

This movie is campy and surprisingly charming! It has enough feel good moments to make it an enjoyable watch, even if it doesn’t do anything particularly revolutionary within the superhero genre. I really enjoyed the cast and thought they had great chemistry together. There’s also a wonderfully childlike quality to the film, as if the entire world was dreamt up by a kid. It feels like the kind of imaginative world you’d expect a child to create while playing with Mattel toys.

It looks like it is set up for a sequel, but I'm not sure if we'll get one. Time will tell!

Watched on: Amazon Prime / Runtime 2:23:54

Hope you enjoy!

Mike Smith

Nice catch Jax! Dolph Lundgren played He-Man in the 1987 version of Masters of the Universe. He-Man was a bit before my time. I was a Ninja Turtles kid. But I do remember the bigger kids playing with the toys. It was fun getting to finally dive into this universe. I hope they make a sequel.

Such a fun movie! Comparing it to Dungeons and Dragons is really spot on. I had the same thought when I first saw this. The tone was perfect. Cheesy, but the right kind of cheesy! This is based off a toy line and it was a cartoon in the 80's and most cartoons in that era were basically 30 minute toy commercials like Transformers, GI Joe, and My Little Pony. The girl in the first credits scene was She-Ra who is Adam's long lost twin sister! I actually think the studio made an unforced error announcing Jared Leto as Skeletor prior to release. His voice is unrecognizable so you didn't need to announce it and I know it turned people off seeing it. I was talking to my friends about it and we joked that Skeletor as Skeletor would have been a funny creditat the end.

Robert Inman

Thanks Jax! I guess the takeàway is that in a Saturday morning cartoon, Adam can be a He-Man, Inara can be Sorceress of Greyskull and Cringer can be the MGM lion :)

Nowhere Man

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, despite never having enjoyed any of the source material. My only (mild) criticism was that the script kept beating us over the head with the whole "let's just talk this out" mantra, but then concluded with a stereotypical "might is right" fist fight. I suppose that stark irony could also be interpreted as humor, but as a "moral of the story", that flawed message didn't enlighten any young (or old) minds.
