    Skeletor stole the show! Great portrayal. We had no expectations and were pleasantly surprised.

    Smiling The whole way through. Laughs and good action. This really is HE MAN. I can only imagine the budget Disney and Feminist groups have put towards giving this film deceptive malicious reviews. Face it! This movie is the latest victim of woke review bombing disguised as "unhappy fans". I can tell you honestly there is NO unhappy fans. Fans love this film. Disney and political groups are secretly reviewing bombing this picture. Disney doesn't like the competition to their MCU and Star Wars franchises sbd feminist LGB groups hate to see masculinity and real male power on screen. Don't fall for the negative campaign.

    I have no idea why people are sleeping on this film but they are missing out. Its made for the big screen not streaming! Its literally the MCU of Saturday Mornings! Its Dungeons and Dragons meets Star Wars and everyone loves that about HE MAN. I think they made two big marketing mistakes 1) they didn't say HE MAN in the title and not many people know "masters of the universe" they don't recognize the brand without HE MAN in the title. 2) attaching Amazon's name to it made it sound like it might be made for streaming and thus ok to just wait till it's on prime. Big mistake! This is a blockbuster retro hit! 3) they skipped the advertising budget to create awesome merch. But merch without advertising isn't going to move...same with tickets. Every podcast should have had interviewed about this awesome film. And finally I think the fans themselves are to blame. The target demographic of 35 to 45 yo males are far too comfortable pirating and watching things online. Its not the same bronies. Get up off your blind bums and go see this in theatres the way it was meant to be seen. !!! I saw it in screen X and yes its worth it! Its. HE MAN done right

    This was Mattels shot at getting kids into the line but it has plenty of sexual jokes and the final joke is just offensive for any parent with young children. I honestly don't know what they were thinking.

    Jared Leto , well , he does this Ian mckellan , John Luke Picard, impression, all the way through , like it's an imitation , not spin , nothing new , he literally rips their voices off and gets paid, baffling . New guy Adam ,is fine , dorky, hunky , central casting . Evil Lyn looks and acts like a mall hairdress for the nintyies. All the menace of a bad perm . Wanted to love , but lots got in the way , the self deprecation on the nerd community is fun. Snappy when it needs to be , just not snappy enough . And that the rub ,could been a lady . Sad

    Why can't they leave the classics alone?

    They had a chance to tell a story that would've been relatable to all parents. Especially dads. Man-At-Arms could've struggled with losing everything and failing those he loved. Then had to struggle with that knowledge while having to protect the only thing he had left. His daughter Teela. With everything taken from him by the very world he must now prepare Teela for. But no. They turned one of the greatest father figures from 80s cartoons into a useless broken drunk. Great father/daughter story Mattel. I hate this movie.

    A fun ride to a childhood beloved cartoon.
