Warning: there will be flashing effects/colourful effects/other
effects/transformation/shooting/stabbing/impaling/disintegrating/regeneration/animal
cruelty/robotics/disfigurement/squashing/burning/rainbow community. There will
be some censored adult language references in this content; yes it is very rare
I do this as it relates to rating content, but in this case; by doing this I am
trying to make the content shorter in theory, because man we have a lot to get
through and on top of that at some point I am not in the slightest being
actively racist, but I am allowed to be observational.
15 years later Prince Adam returns to Eternos: briefly; Prince Adam/Adam Glenn/He-Man [Younger: Artie Wilkinson-Hunt/older:
Nicholas Galitzine:] he/him returns to Eternos with the Sword of Power after
this heavy chunk of exposition character developments on basically finding the
sword; he gets assisted to go back to his native planet by Teela [Younger: Eire Farrell/Older: Camila
Mendes:] she is now Captain of the Royal Guards of Eternia and is the adopted
daughter of Duncan/Man-At-Arm [Idris Elba:] he once was a proud heroic
warrior/mechanic inventor and science, but nowadays is a drunk. Prince Adam
gets to see first-hand what devastation Keldor/Skeletor [Jared Leto:] he is a
incredibly powerful warlock which has ruled this planet will a fist of a tyrant
and villainess anger as he searches for this sword.
Generally speaking: I'm not going to lie we honestly have so much to cover; it is
ridiculous so let's start with the storyline/script; it feels like it has been
written by a 16-year-old boy either drinking too much alcohol or smoking too
much marijuana or quite possibly both at the same time that has also recently
found masturbation on whatever level that the film has positive there is so
much negativity to quickly bring down as you will see throughout this content
after a while you just come up with one question of; basically what the hell
were they thinking? The framework and pacing of this roughly 140 minutes film
is good, because we have so much to get through and it really does help when
the music has been done by Brian May [Queen; guitarist: as the person I watch
some others contend with pointed that out to me.]
Art, action
and comedy; look art as it relates to landscapes and scenery such as Castle
Grayskull and Snake Mountain and other locational places or costume designs
minus He-Man, Cringer/Battle Cat [Younger voiced by: Fletcher Glenn/Older: Tom
Wilton:] he is Prince Adam's best friend and He-Man's right-hand ally against
the forces of evil; fully grown Cringer doesn't exactly move the most fluently
or when Prince Adam first touches him: or anything to do with Skeletor is a big
fat no from me; but other than that they are absolutely fantastic.
The action
is for me very hit or miss; the conflict sequences are very hit minus the
juvenile commonly references as it relates to fist or/and head or pretty much
any reference to the use; I mean once is fine, but as it relates to fist it
really does get boring after a while, also do we have to remind the viewers how
dumb stupid He-Man is because not only as an action, comedy but also character
developments this is pretty much all horse manure really and no surprise I will
be bringing up this again soon; but for now I digress; the very hard-hitting
indicated by stop sequence like knockout punches by He-Man on Skeletor are very
cheap and tacky and uninspiring and the best bit of comedy; in this film by
some distance is when we have Cringer doing the job of the MGM Leo the Lion and Cringer does have other comical bits and pieces.
Character
developments, performances and voice performances; well I am going to give you
one more warning to start off with; this is where in this content is going to
get really uncomfortable actually I have just realised from here on in this
content is probably actually I lie with 100% certainty going to trigger most of
you out there in Internet land.
So let's
begin with the elephant in the room; this film is woke, I don't care what
anyone has to say it is woke, but conveniently yet again not using equality
strange.... That isn't it? The female characters are how you expect them to be
with well rounded versions of what they are meant to be with yet again
conveniently got their business altogether and giving it boss babe energy.
Meanwhile we
have key male characters that are flawed or very poor versions of what they are
meant to be and the uncomfortable truth again by definition culturally
appropriated [I hasten to add; I don't have a problem with this, but the fact
is; this film made it a problem, because as I have just indicated the female
characters are as you expect them to be, so consequently it sticks out like a
sore thumb; so yet again consequently by their own actions I am not actually being
racist or racial, I am being observational, again consequently I am not being
racial or racist.]
Prince
Adam/Adam Glenn/He-Man; as I referenced earlier man he is so dumb it hurts,
including but not limited to Prince Adam and He-Man not being seen as separate
characters, but then again the writer torpedoed that concept as soon as Prince
Adam went through his metamorphosis into He-Man in front of a good selection of
characters and then repeatedly have characters referred to him as Adam and the
cherry on top of this manure cake just to nail it home how dumb he is; they
made reference to why does he have to go and change in secret when we all know
he is He-Man and the answer is; to just let him do his thing; so basically they
have completely undermine and buried He-Man even before the ending credits.
But then
again deep down we already know that the damage had been done way before then
anyway, with his virtual signalling horse manure and at no point does Prince
Adam/He-Man grew into the ideals of what He-Man should be even with his HR
training from his time on earth, in fact when it comes down to which this
version shows he is no better than Skeletor; so in essence this may look
something like He-Man but in no way shape or form is it he; that is why I made reference
to in the art bit minus He-Man; because in theory yes he may have the costume
on, but he doesn't wear it or become it; in fact he may as well be a little boy
with way too much power and responsibility; but doesn't know how to deal with
either responsibly.
Keldor/Skeletor;
well as I was already deeply concerned about this interpretation as I made
individual content on it; to be brutally honest yet fair this interpretation is
by am far the worst interpretation I have ever seen and yes I have even seen
The New Adventures of He-Man 1990-1991; 1 Season; 65 Episodes, but I digress; every
time he opens his mouth, he just reminds me this is not Skeletor in the way he
speaks, unnecessarily trying to be funny, don't get me wrong Skeletor is/can be
funny, but and this is a massive but which they completely missed, was his
comedic timing it was always spot on an authentically natural, but this
interpretation feel so contrived, uninspiring and nauseating; he just isn't
nowhere near the standard of Skeletor it is that simple and this entire image
needs to go as well whilst we're on the subject.
James
Purefoy as King Randor, the ruler of the Eternian kingdom of Eternos alongside
his Queen; Queen Marlena [Charlotte Riley:] she is an ex-astronaut from Earth
that rules alongside her husband and is the mother of Prince Adam and another:
but this interpretation of King Randor sucks lemons; he would be disappointed
in Prince Adam yes, but never like this and on top of that what they decided to
do with him in this movie is also insufferably dumb.
Duncan/Man-At-Arm;
I don't mind Duncan being drunk or let's put it more kinder a recovering
alcoholic; they obviously went with the concept of making him a high-ranking
long-term soldier, that took it incredibly hard when things went side with and
by taking this route; they wanted to give him more of a authentic real edge
would makes him more three-dimensional other than just being this virtuous
intelligent character; we get knocked down we get back up again; moving on, Jon
Xue Zhang as Ram-Man; another heroic warrior for the forces of good and known
for very powerful head-butts and Kojo
Attah as Tri-Klops; one of Skeletor's minions while known for having a turning
optical vision system depending on the task is depending what optical vision
system he will use, this interpretation is a Bounty Hunter/Sniper based on
those skills I have mentioned, but broadly speaking he can also be a scientist
type of character as well.
Before I
continue I'm going to make this crystal clear; yes I have gone on record saying
that unless it is a cultural character or a character such as gender required
such as Batman then pretty much it is open to interpretation, but then again I
don't think I have ever been in a position where such as this; where it clearly
sticks out that these female characters have been perfectly designed in every
way shape or form yet the male characters by comparison are problematic, I have
just remembered the thing that comes close is the entirety of
Marvel's/Netflix's Iron Fist [2017-2018:2 Seasons; 23 Episodes.] But as it
relates to this film I feel really sorry for these three characters in
particular, because it does feel like they have been hanging out to dry,
because this film isn't that good and then on top you have this; I mean I have
already seen one person make a reference to black appropriation and Zhang is
Asian-British so I'm guessing here sooner or later people are going to have a
problem with that as well.
I don't have
a problem with this as I keep referring to, but it would be stupid of me not to
point out or discuss this thing that sticks out like a sore thumb and just for
the record these three put in good performances; we could have done with more
Tri-Klops in this movie, but that's by the by.
So the
performances and voice performances; on the whole range from let's be
completely honest here, minus the character developments I really have problems
with which conveniently equal to some absolute steaming pile of horse manure
performances, the character developments, performances and a voice performances
of those that; really took what was given to them and ran with it and strangely
enough made these characters/interpretations and versions their very own; put
in very good performances.
This film receives: 4/10, this film is mixed; I would have given something slightly
higher if in short Prince Adam/Adam Glenn/He-Man and/or Keldor/Skeletor weren't
complete and utter dog's diarrhoea; I will make a bold statement right here and
right now both performers should have never been given these roles, I mean the
person I go to watch some of this content with, by comparison really wouldn’t
have minded Patrick Stewart as the voice of Skeletor, I mean if they were going
to go this way I say why not at least Stewart would have given this role some
depth and very much needed class and sophistication, I also need to point out
this person minus Skeletor was actually a good movie. But one thing is for
certain they are going to absolutely transparently clear... they are without
question going to clean up at the Razzie Award when they roll around and other
negative award events/ceremonies and there are some colourful ending credits,
with two extra scenes to watch out for and I have just realised I have failed
at my attempts to keep this content short or at minimum less; so if you have
read the entire content; well done, thank you it is really appreciated.
