The amalgam of fairytale, sci-fi and Greek mythology is exciting.

A Saturday morning kiddie cartoon stretched out to feature length, which by some lights is an awfully long time.

Though hardly a lost classic, the cartoon's irony-free approach and bizarre characters show why it resonates today.

Classic '80s duo teams up in battles, bravery, friendship.

I was surprised to see that the movie was even better than I remembered. And though it's no longer my favorite, it endures as an affecting cinematic experience.

Feb 03, 2007Warning: nostalgia is kicking in. "BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL!" *Sigh* Seriously any kid growing up in the 80s did that. He-Man was the hero every boy dreamed of being. He was so successful that a spin-off had to be done. This film my friends is the movie that introduced the spin-off: She-Ra. Now common guys we all secretly watched She-Ra although never admitted to it on the playground as it was a "girls" show. The movie is in essence the first five episodes of the She-Ra TV series. She-Ra herself doesn't appear until episode 3, but her alterego Adora appears in the first episode. The first two episodes are in essence a He-Man adventure. Although the film does chronical a lot of He-Man/Adam's familial origins it also tells of how She-Ra came to be who she is. Adora and Adam are twins, but when they were born Hordak (the main villain and in my mind the greatest television antagonist) stole Adora from her cradle and disappeared. This film has He-Man learning of the past and recruiting a new ally in the fight against evil. This film would have been a masterpiece however episode 5 was rushed and ruins the build-up of the first four episodes. A must see for those who study popular culture.Jason F Super Reviewer
