Masters of the Universe: Revelation

What the heck did I just watch?

It wasn't He-Man.

This is why you don't let drug addicts write.

Please stop hiring Kevin Smith until he goes to rehab.

Thanks.

Sou uma entuasiasta de todos os "revivals" dos anos 80/90 mas fiquei decepcionada com essa version meio esquisita do Masters of the Universe. Faltou o Adam. Faltou o He-Man. Não gostei de versão da Tila. Talvez a nova geração goste. Talvez até a antiga. Mas eu, que cresci amando o He-man e a Tila, não gostei. I'm an enthusiast of all the "revivals" of the 80s/90s but I was disappointed with this weird version of Masters of the Universe. Adam was missing. He-Man was missing. I didn't like Teela's version. Maybe the younger generation will like it. Maybe even the old one. But I, who grew up loving He-man and Teela, didn't like it. #netflix #serieslover.

I don't know who the target audience for this show is supposed to be, fans of the original (in their +30's by now, I am one of them) or kids? To me, the writing is terrible. The first episode of part 1 was promising, as was the last, but in between it was a complete snore-fest. As for Part 2, it just went downhill and never stopped. Sad for me to say but I hope there will not be a Part 3.

The only positive I can give the show is the great animation, and a solid voice cast performance.

I'll give it four stars because the animation and OST is alright but everything else is meh. These aren't the same characters as any previous He-man show and it clearly shows. Everything you read below is correct and I'll just sum it up to say Kevin Smith and anyone else involved with this doesn't understand He-man and had no right to touch it. There was a right way to go about this and that chance is gone now I think. I hope Kevin Smith's career tanks because of this and everyone remembers how he destroyed something he clearly didn't understand just like Rian did with LTJ.

Contrary to some reviewers beliefs that people who rate this show 5 stars and below have problems with a female main character: I have zero problems with Teela being featured as the main character of this show. Absolutely not. She was always part of the main cast. I think it could have been a refreshing approach. BUT making her that absolutely unlikeable self-centered egocentric person is disrespectful to the original character. And disrespectful to the audience. And makes the show nearly unwatchable. I don't get how anyone can think a strong female character had to be portrayed like this.
