I truly don’t know what to say about this film in all honesty. Starring everyone’s favourite cannibal Armie Hammer this film is a story about a lonely, hateful man so desperate to let out His violent side that He takes it out on all the minorities He comes across. Now if this were more akin to say Taxi Driver and we saw Armie as a bad person then that would be swell and a truly though provoking film delving into the complexities of human nature and the hatred within however it ain’t that kinda film. So if You wanna watch some racist Twat going on a killing spree with cinematography that looks like it was ripped from a Level 2 Creative Media student’s show reel for an hour and a half I’d say give it a watch, if ya wanna enjoy ya life though I’d say don’t bother. ~

“He sees the good in everyone and I see the truth.” The truth here being that this film ain’t nearly as bad as some people on the internet are making it out to be however it was a pretty lacklustre film compared to what we could’ve gotten. Ideas played around with in the B-Plot focusing on Kara’s origins and how She came to be the person She is came across as far more interesting to Me than the main story did, with Krem feeling like a very one dimensional character who was evil for the sake of being evil with the same going for Ruthrye who felt very flat and not nearly fleshed out enough for us to care too deeply about Her story and Her motivations. ~ ☀️

“By the power of Grayskull, I have the power!”  I went into this film having very little Knowledge of He-Man and the Masters Of The Universe and I still absolutely loved it, the passing of the torch from Dolph Lundgren to Nicholas Galitzine with that little cameo was a really nice touch. There was a bit of MCU-ification with the humour at times but I don’t think it hurt the quality all that much as the positives were great with a standout being, as much as I hate to say it, Jared Leto as Skeletor… 💀

What the Hell did I just watch? Kane Parsons’ directorial debut definitely doesn’t disappoint with a truly original idea that leaves You with more questions than answers in the best way possible, gonna be thinking about this one for weeks… 🚪
