Fantasy reviews
Masters of the Universe
It flopped in cinemas and hit number one on Prime Video in a week. He-Man plays better on a sofa, and the innuendo does the heavy lifting.
Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender
The first film from Avatar Studios has one genuinely beautiful idea buried inside it, and about ninety minutes of other things sitting on top.
The Odyssey
Gorgeous, overlong, and strangely unsurprising — because prophecy tells you what's coming. Better the second time.
