REVIEWED By Marjorie Baumgarten, Wed., Feb. 21, 2001
He-Man and Skeletor (Lundgren and Langella) face off, while teens (headed by Cox) get caught up in the battle to save the universe. A must for anyone who thought it impossible to use the names Dolph Lundgren and Frank Langella in the same sentence.
