Masters of the Universe

Masters of the Universe was way more fun than I expected. The self-aware comedy is what really sells it — the childhood nicknames, Orko's recap, the whole vibe lands without feeling forced. Jared Leto actually delivers here, which is refreshing after some of his recent work. He brings the right energy to Skeletor without going over the top. I also appreciated how they handled the "kindness is strength" angle — Adam's empathy being his real power instead of just another muscle-bound hero could've been preachy, but they pulled it off. Solid action, good pacing, and a surprisingly well-made blockbuster. Didn't think I'd enjoy it this much.
