It is by no means a masterpiece, but it still possesses some keen schlock value for fans of eighties cinema.

The first film to be based on a line of toys, this might not be the last, but it'd take something awful to replace it as the worst.

There are some decent special effects, but overall it's about what you'd expect from a movie inspired by a line of toys.

There are lots of flashes and bangs, but the effects are neither special nor camp enough to be more than vaguely amusing.

Halfway through this live action version of the popular early 1980s kiddies TV show, I wondered what I had done wrong to deserve all this pain and suffering.

I'm not saying He-Man deserved all that brilliant of a movie ... but this thing's a freaking disaster.

Little kids at play have come up with craftier plots, better characterization and conceivably more spectacular effects -- provided their mothers let them play with matches.
