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.

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 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'm of a younger generation that has never heard of He-man before except for that damn HEYAAAYAAYAA video.

As a newcomer to the series, I didn't really have any expectations for how any character should be portrayed. What I did know was that this was mainly advertised as a "He-Man" story, and I feel like it really failed in that regard.

The big bad of the show Skeletor and He-man himself felt more so like background lore rather than the main characters of the story, used to develop the plot. Which by itself, honestly wasn't the worst I've seen, If this was advertised as a spinoff story with Teela as the main protagonist, I think it would have been received a lot better. I can understand why long time fans felt like this was a bait and switch.

A few of the central characters were pretty unlikeable, especially Teela. I don't know if it's just me, but she just seems so angry, self-centered and annoying all the time. Perhaps it's to try and portray her as a strong willed character, but it just comes off as a bit too aggressive. Imagine Korra but dial that crap all the way up through the roof.

I get that sometimes you make a character look bad in the beginning to have a touching character development arc but this was a little overboard.

I'll probably stick around for part 2 just to see how they plan on handling the story from that point onwards, but I'm not expecting too much.

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.
