10 Years Later, Gerard Butler’s Fantasy Flop Is Still One of Streaming's Biggest Guilty Pleasures

10 Years Later, Gerard Butler's Fantasy Flop Is Still One of Streaming's Biggest Guilty Pleasures




There's a fine line that separates a truly bizarre fantasy movie from being labeled as bonkers in a good way or being discarded as trash. For instance, critics appear to have embraced the new Masters of the Universe movie, which currently holds a "Certified Fresh" 73% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes. This comes after weeks of marketing material that was dismissed or, worse, outright criticized. Masters of the Universe seems to have understood the assignment and embraced just the right amount of camp, and according to Collider's Victoria Luxford, "this new version is determined to wink at the camera and appeal to your nostalgia." However, not every movie that aims for this sort of lunacy is able to get the audience on its side. One of the most infamous examples of a movie that ended up being instantly discarded by critics and audiences has found its way onto a free streaming site this month.
