RE: MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE: SKELETOR

in #motu7 years ago

It always bothered me how little people cared for Langella's performance in this movie. He's taking some extremely unreadable dialogue and rendering it into first-class movie villain gold. That fluctuating emphasis from quiet to loud to ecstatic is just marvelous, and he DOESN'T. STUMBLE. ONCE. I can't adequately describe just how difficult it is to play that without careening into camp.

His rendition of Skeletor is a criminally underrated stroke of creative brilliance, and I'm glad that all these years later, he still considers the role one of his best and favorites. He really has everything to be proud of with what he did for the character.

We at Community News reckon it is time we got the movie out and watched it again - great comment kouba01.
