Masters of the Universe review: "An enjoyable and self-consciously silly take on outdated source material"
Masters of the Universe is a self-consciously silly action-fantasy film that offers an enjoyable, albeit derivative, take on the classic He-Man material.

The adaptation, directed by Travis Knight, leans heavily into comedy, drawing comparisons to Thor: Ragnarok.
