“Masters of the Universe” Put Me To Sleep + “Power Ballad” is the Ultimate Dad Movie [Spoiler-Free Reviews]

Today on FoF we discuss 2 Dad movies of differing quality. In the case of MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE I have not had a more baffling, disorientating cinema experience in quite some time, so we have a nice big giggle about that in my first EVER non-Review Movie Review.

Moving onto POWER BALLAD (via a little OBSESSION update) I talk about how it tapped into my new Dad perspective, made me realise Nick Jonas has talent and earnt my forgiveness for its frailties.

Both these reviews are SPOILER FREE, meaning anything that is shown in the trailer is fair game.
