How sad is this?

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Come on ??? You had fun watching this .....................

While I did watch the cartoon, even as a child I got bored a couple of episodes in and found it repetitive and mindless. The film at least stays true in those regards, reusing shots and locations. While many reviews I've read mention it being boring I found it was just cheap on every level. To the point where a sci-fi film spent more time in LA alleyway ways and houses than on an alien world or fantastical sets. The acting as you can imagine was atrocious, as was the script, but what do you expect from Canon, let's crap this one out asap and move on to the next, films.

I was 5 years old when this movie came out and I can't even count how many times I've seen this movie (to this day if I see it on TV I'll still stop on it).What makes it so special? A movie adaption of a cartoon I loved that stayed true with all their characters. Seeing Skeletor and his monsters was always kinda scary and Evil-Lyn was kinda hot I suppose.They did a excellent job of casting Dolph Lundgren as He-Man and seeing a young Courtney Cox is cool in retrospect.And to this day I still have that beat from THAT cosmic keytar stuck in my head.There are a lot scenes in this film that will stick to your head really. There is some type of awesomeness to these old school sci-fi films that were low on special effects and makeup but that made it seem even more real to a little kid.The movie is what it is, a cartoon adaption, but for a movie made in 1987, they almost got it perfectly right.

A movie set is typically where movies are filmed. Depending upon the lighting, a movie's set can appear as a real place or as a stage setting. Costumes and make-up also can either aid or hinder a film production. Special effects in the hands of a master can create amazing illusions, and in the hands of lesser talents, equally less impressive results are achieved. Actors are crucial to saving or ruining a movie, a great performance can be unforgettable, and a bad performance can be haunting. Directing and Producing are also crucial to a movie's success or failure, but really the most important part of any film ever, is writing. Spend heavy on good writing.
