Review of Masters of the Universe (1987) by Ted W — 01 Dec 2017

Filled with joyful moments throughout and a plot that at least holds court with even most of the modern Marvel/DC films of today, MOTU is aloud to Sharknado in fact that it knows what it is & doesn?t try too hard to be something else! Massive discriminatory reviews may have ruined its release and its chance at cult status, but its 100% enjoyable & doesn?t suffer pacing issues like many hero films of today! Langella?s performance is perhaps the biggest tragedy here - as it deserved its dues via some acclaim, but was lost in the muck of critics wanting to can he film predicated in fact they didn?t like a toy line Becoming a feature film, we just weren?t ready for that in 1987! If released today, no doubt things would be severely different in many ways for the film and its actors.
