Masters of the Universe: Revelation

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.

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.

Well now ive seen the whole of the story... finally prince adam becomes he man in the last episode and for 30 seconds and it was amazing.. but i had to watch hours and hours of woke rubbish to get there.. what would happen if someone made a she-ra remake with great animation and had hardly any she-ra in it and made it mainly about Bow or Sea-hawk and had she-ra in it for 2 episodes... how much up-roar do you think would happen then.. more than this i assure you... this show is at best a 3 just for the animation and voice acting.. whoever thought to make a he-man show without he-man as the main character needs to be excluded from all forms of storymaking from here on out.. yes kevin smith im talking to you. Shame shame shame..

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.

I've read some interesting reviews about this show, now that I've watched it, I can agree with lots of points, and disagree strongly with others.

The main issue, the absence of He-Man, it's very true we don't get a lot of him, he is sacrificed for 80% of it, and we're given Teela.

The animation is superb I thought, I loved it, it's modern, but it doesn't feel a million miles away from the classic series, the stories of course, you won't recognise any original characteristics there.

The best of the villains here for me, Scare Glow, absolutely first rate, that's perhaps the best episode too.

The real star of the show is Lena Headey, who voices Evil Lyn, her voice is captivating, and I think it's fair to say that she's the most interesting character here, she isn't forced on us, instead she naturally shines through, we aren't made to think she's incredible....ahem Teela.

I don't love it, I didn't hate it, it's watchable, and nostalgic, 6/10.
