With the Galaxy A57 5G | A37 5G, it’s easier for me to create and capture things anytime, lalo na [especially] during travel or spontaneous moments.

Maki says, "I'm amazed it can still take good videos in low light, such as how recording studios are lit. And I still get to take sharp photos, even when moving around. It's great for filming content and I love how it actually matches my aesthetic and style." By stepping up his A-game, Maki shows that with the right tools, you can turn your creative passion into the soundtrack of a generation.

MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE review: A fun, action-packed version of the 80s animated series that fans, old and new, will enjoy!

 By: Edgar Allan E. Yu



I had an absolute blast watching the new MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE! As a longtime fan of the original TV series from my childhood, I admit I went in with low expectations, especially after being disappointed by the recent animated reboots. But this movie completely exceeded those doubts and delivered an experience that was both thrilling and heartfelt.


The cinematography, costumes, and set design are truly impressive, capturing the essence of the original series while elevating it to a whole new level. The film balances humor and heart perfectly, making it enjoyable for fans old and new. The fight scenes are nothing short of spectacular, packed with energy and creativity that keep you engage with the characters. The sound design by Daniel Pemberton with electric guitar work by Brian May of Queen, brought me back to the 80s sci-fi and fantasy films. 



Nicholas Galitzine shines in the dual role of Adam and the heroic He-Man, bringing a relatable charm to the character. Camila Mendes as Teela is not only stunning but also brings strength and depth to her role. Jared Leto’s portrayal of Skeletor is pitch-perfect—this might just be his most fun and memorable role yet. Director Travis Knight, known for Bumblebee, masterfully maintains the campy, quirky vibe of the original show while raising the bar with intense, well-choreographed action sequences. Watching the film feels like seeing the beloved cartoon come to life in the best way possible.


This movie was clearly made with fans in mind, but it also opens the door wide for new generations of action and fantasy lovers. Don’t miss the mid-credits and post-credit scenes—there are three of them, and they set up what promises to be an exciting sequel. Now I'm on my way to a third screening !
