The film comes off as if it were written by a millennial and as far as I can tell, they're trying hard to appeal to ten year olds. Again, that's a choice. It leans into campy, and depending on whether or not you accept the humor, you're going to love it or hate it.
Thus far I'm not enjoying it as much as I thought I would, but maybe it improves.
I guess I would have preferred a more adult take on the story.

Masters of the Universe (2026) is now available to watch for free on Amazon, who made the film through their MGM studio.
I started watching last night and am only half way through. I should preface any review by saying, I was a fan of the cartoon growing up. It's based on a toy, and the cartoon was made to help market the toy. There was a live action film made in 1987-- which I've never seen. So this is the second live action film.
There's any number of directions they could have gone with this film, and they choose to stay true to the source material, and created a backstory, where the prince is transported to Earth as a young child with the sword of power, but loses it en route. He spends his days remembering his home of Eternia, and the people who live there. He even recounts life there to anyone who will listen, which people assume he's crazy. Oh, and he's spent the last 15 years searching for his lost sword.

OMG!
Once you throw off the balance of the robot, it's not good. He should have never taken the item off the tray.
Plus, they were quick to cover the body. Does one just have a black tarp handy during all presentations? 🤔

It's raining here.
I did not have that on my Bingo card. Thought we were done with rain.
Tomorrow is supposed to be the hottest day of the week. 97 degrees.
What strange weather.
Meanwhile I have still not washed my car this year. Come to find out the car wash that I frequent was closed momentarily for maintenance (2 months), but appears to be open again! I just haven't had an opportunity to go yet. Thank goodness I held off.

First hydrogen energy car packs 932-mile range and takes just 5 seconds to refuel
It's weird, but there's at least 5 hydrogen fueling stations where I live. Not sure who's using them.

Loki is back? So is Cap? Professor X and Magneto? Mystique?
Plus, Gambit will be there?
Supposedly Spider-man is involved.
I understand Night Crawler and Beast will be there too.
Must see.
I don't mind too many too many characters in a film as long as they handle it well.
Where's Wolverine and Deadpool?? 🤔
This is one of the few films this year that I am interested in seeing. Too bad we have to wait until December.
