‘Masters of the Universe’

By Angela Tricarico

After hitting theaters in late May, Masters of the Universe is now available to stream on Prime Video for all subscribers. To me, the based-on-a-toy flick is exactly what I’m looking for in a big summer movie: it’s bold, flashy, colorful and full of fun action. Nicholas Galitzine stars in Masters of the Universe as Adam, the prince of the planet Eternia, who is sent to Earth as the planet comes under attack. Adam comes of age on Earth, spending most of his time searching for the Sword of Power to send him back to Eternia. When he finally makes it home, Adam steps into his destiny as the warrior He-Man and, alongside some old friends, attempts to take down the evil Skeletor once and for all.  If you missed it in theaters, you should definitely consider checking it out now for free.
