Masters of the Universe

Barbie for the boys

The action/fights are phenomenal, and 90% of the time it’s beautiful to look at. That’s about as far as the compliments go.

This movie is made for 40-50 year old lobotomised man children, there’s absolutely no sense of logic and nothing makes sense, the movie makes no effort to explain anything that happens, things just happen and you just go along because you don’t expect this movie to try and make you understand it, it’s colour and fights and who cares about the rest.

I nearly walked out many times, I couldn’t stand how unwatchable some scenes were, it’s so cringe. Every single character right down to skeletor himself is joking or is the butt of something humerus, and humerus is used very loosely, its millennial throwaway unserious stupid stuff that nobody should be laughing at. But apparently all the 40 year olds haven’t had much experience with genuinely funny comedy because the most embarrassingly stupid slapstick thing could happen and all of them would start chuckling like they’ve never done before.

All the characters are so undefined, one dimensional and forgettable that it makes me think about why I should care about anything that’s going on.

Could you tell Amazon distributed this movie? I could, exactly when the monster that came to earth that was tanking hits from Teela had the most damage done to him by an Amazon delivery truck. In a masters of the universe movie? Smh

I also don’t know what age group this was made for, they make jokes about fisting, giving head and other stuff I can’t remember that’s not appropriate for kids, but everything else about the movie makes me think it’s just a kids movie? I don’t get it.

I just couldn’t with this movie, nothing about it makes it a good movie, as an action movie it succeeds but as anything else it’s an embarrassment. It’s just so stupid.

My score: 4/10

Masters of the Pooniverse. I was hoping to enjoy this, but my 6/10 rating still feels way too generous. In some ways, the casting is spot on, but in most, it falls short. The visual work, from practical effects to CGI, looks fantastic in some parts and iffy in others. I wanted and expected a parody, but the comedy just feels lazy and the tone uneven. At least there are some cool references. The biggest bad guys in my eyes are the pacing and inconsistencies. The emotional pulls feel nonsensical, and the story has way too many silly weak points within the writing. Meh.

una película mucho más para mis papás q para mí siento ahya

Horrible movie I’d rather watch yesterday twice than this movie half way through

this movie was so dumb it felt like a group of high school boys wrote a script, and then somehow came across enough money to hire a professional company to do the CGI and set design and music. but what else can you expect from an IP that existed before good movies were invented.
