Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

DarthBill A fairly bold retelling of the 1980s classic "He-Man & The Masters of the Universe", the callow, carefree young prince Adam of Eternia, goof off son of the highly respected King Randor, is informed by the beautiful, mysterious Sorceress of Castle Grayskull that he is destined to become He-Man, defender of Eternia, champion of the oppressed, protector of all that is good and just. Initially skeptical of all this, Adam learns it is very true after his father is kidnapped & his home torn up by the evil Lord Skeletor, formerly Keldor, an old enemy of his father. After becoming He-Man (voiced in both forms by Cam Clarke, best remembered as Leonardo from the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon), joining forces with his mentor Man-At-Arms, gal pal Teela, and the Heroic Masters (Stratos, Ram-Man, Man-E-Faces, Buzz-Off, Mek-A-Neck, Roboto, Sy-Clone and Fisto), our big brawny hero finds himself once again battling the evil forces of Skeletor, Count Marzo, King Hiss & the Snakemen, with occasional assistance from Zodak. And yes, Orko and Cringer/Battle Cat are also back and so is Queen Marlena.For the most part, very well written, with stronger characterizations and personality contrasts to the previous versions. About the only thing they did wrong was that Skeletor's henchmen were too stupid (seriously, the 21st century, I thought we were beyond the dumb evil henchmen by now). Though head & shoulders above many lesser shows of today, sadly, Cartoon Network cut this wonderful remake off just when it was starting to get really good. The eventual idea was to bring in Hordak and the Horde, introduce a re-imagined She-Ra, have Teela learn the truth of her heritage (the Sorceress of Grayskull is her mom), but alas, these ambitions were never realized.DAMN YOU CARTOON NETWORK!Well, it's all on DVD now, so they can't take it away from us. Little bit of Trivia: before this series, Cam Clarke had voiced the Marvel comics hero Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic for a Fantastic Four guest spot on Spider-Man's animated series circa 1994. In 2006, Brian Dobson, who voiced Skeletor/King Hiss/Buzz-Off/etc. in this series, would take on the role of Ben Grimm/the Thing for "Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes".

Ken-120 I used to watch the original He-Man series, but eventually I grew out of it after realizing just how poorly budgeted and written it was, albeit with with notable exceptional episodes.However, this series is a perfect example of the best kind of remake. The producers obviously examined the original series thoroughly and set out to play up the best elements of the series and rectify the weaknesses. As a result, the series boasts vastly superior animation that avoids the constant cycles and other crudities of Filmation's work. There is also wonderful writing with stories that are so well paced that each episode has the feel of a feature film with the amount of content they manage to pack in. The characters are formed with intricate detail and it allows for a truly compelling viewing experience.It is a pleasure to see a remake finally be everything that it should be.

Ericho When I first found out of this show called "He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe", it looked pretty cool, and the episodes I saw were cool! But then, I realized the plot was stupid, and now I'm noticing some pretty wierd things about the series.For example, how come Skeletor only has like half of his forces when he battles?! In an episode when like he, Tri-clops, Evilyn, Whiplash and Beast Man are fighting He-man, where in the world is Merman, Clawful and TrapJaw? Why doesn't Skeletor use all his forces?!It wasn't until the belt electricuting episode that I realized something, the same thing happens in every episode!!! Skeletor gets his men to fight He-Man, they lose, Skeletor goes laughing while running away, and that's all, folks! Man! Why do people complain about repetiveness in "Pokemon"? ("Pokemon" is a great show, Team Rocket are the coolest villains ever, so I don't care if they're in every episode)Oh, boy! If they saw the repetiveness in He-Man, they would go nuts!!Also, the characters are stupid as well. He-Man's friends are mostly stereotype characters, especially Ram-Man. Beast Man is an ugly, butt-faced moron who should fall in a lava pit for Skeletor's sake. Merman...where has he gone? He was only there for like two or three episodes, than vanished. Skeletor probably threw him in the lava pit. Now, I must admit, there is a good character, and that's Orka! Orka rocks!!! Give this guy a show of his own!I wish I could see the original "HMATMOTU" to see if it's better. Anyway, stay away from this show. Watch "Justice League" or "Dragonball Z" for a good Cartoon Network action show.

Tricer1447 He-Man and the Masters of the Universe is part Yu-Gi-Oh, part Thundar the Barbarian, part ThundarCats and part Samuri Jack. (He Man sounds just like Yami Yugi) This is Cartoon Networks 3rd original action series (fourth counting Powerpuff girls) and like the other ones its pretty cool. Of course Samuri Jack is the only true original of these three. This series has far more characters than any other CN original, I'll go over them.The GoodiesHe-Man- The alter ego of Prince Adam, who is like Hercules, he is VERY POWERFUL and a true heroe. (Just like Jack and the League) his companion is the alter ego of Prince Adam's green tiger Cringer, Battlecat. Man at Arms- Leader of the MAsters ( a powerful group of warriors) his real name is Douncan (he has two lame names but he's a pretty cool character, I mean you would have to be a warror without getting beat up with those names.Teela- MAn's daugther who loves who harrass Prince Adam. She's loyal and a brave fighter but I think she's a b"tch. She seemigly has a crush on He-MAn. SHe is cool but she's a b"tchOrco- a little magic sprite who serves has comic relief. He is one of my favorite characters. His magic is weak without his wand and he does get in the way but he helps sometimes.Sorrceress- Teela's mother who gave Adam the sword to become He-ManMAsters- Ram man ( a bulldozer Homer Simpson like guy) Stratos (Think Birdman or Hawkman) Maney-faces (part man, part monster and part robot) Mekaneck (a cyborg with a streching neck) Buzzof (an insectoid figther who was once Stratos's enemy) Cyclone (a strom blowing gaurdian)The baddiesSkelator- He is freaky. His face was burned right of, leaving his face bones sticking out. He's also a pretty smart guy. His minions are powerful but most of them (except Evelin and Triclopes) have limited intelligence. This way he can control them his fearsome powers. HE is the enemy of Adams father. King Randor who caused him to mutatePanthor- Skelator's pet panther monster who is Battlecat's arch enemyEvelin- My favorite villian in the show. She is a witch with very strong magic. She's cunning, sly, sleazy, powerful and all around diabolical. She may be evil but I have a hard time deciding who's a bigger b"tch. Her or Teela.Beastman- a spiky ape man who can control any monster except for dragons. HE is probably the least intelligent bad guy.Merman- a wimpy fish man who is really good only in his element.Triclopes- a fighter with three eyes around his forehead covered by a macanical ring who is like a scientist.Other baddies- Whiplash (an ankylosaurs man with a clubbed tail, Clawful (giant lobster man) TrapJaw (cyborg thug)This is a pretty good show with great animation and awesome sound effects 10/10
