With the fifth offshoot of the "Ben 10" franchise, the animated series returns to its roots and its original name, bringing 10-year-old Benjamin "Ben" Tennyson, his cousin Gwen, and Grandpa Max back to life on a new summer vacation journey. As in the original, the stories in the remake of the series also spin around an alien wristwatch called "the Omnitrix," with the help of Ben can turn into ten different aliens, which come up with different supernatural powers.

SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Brainsbell The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
chaofunisawesome Dear god, all of these poor and sad 1-star reviews are made by edgy OG Ben 10 fanboys who pander to the first 3 series and worship it to death. However, this review is going to be a non nostalgia-tard review.So, I remember Ben 10 as a kid and never really liked it. I bought 2 PS2 games and both of them were pretty hard and they both sucked. When I heard a reboot for the show was coming, I was not really excited but I gave it a chance. This CN show is without a doubt, the worst CN show ever, but unlike many other haters (aka nostalgia-tards), I believe this show has redeeming qualities.So let me start out with the bad stuff first.Ben is really annoying, and I mean really annoying. He doesn't stop talking at all, and his voice is even more annoying than a Call of Duty fanboy. The Omni-Tricked special was pretty terrible, as it had many plotholes, like why the hell would Ben get Vilgax's species, and why would Upgrade kill himself? Well, at least it wasn't the disastorous episode, "And Then There Was None" and "And Then There Was Ben" from Ben 10 Omniverse. Most of the episodes' plots are pretty something that Clarence would do, but without the aliens. It also got a pretty bad video game. And finally, both its fanbase and its hatebase. The fanbase makes way too many channels for the reboot and Omniverse, which is a pretty sick obsession, and as for the hatebase, well, why don't you take a tour around the comment sections on Reboot clips and the reviews on IMDb here?Now for the good stuff.Aliens such as Four Arms, Gax, and Shock Rock have pretty cute designs. The animation is amazing and by far one of the CN shows with really good animation. Gwen is a passable character. And finally, at least the reboot had better potential than Omniverse's disastrous sixth season premiere.Honestly, the show isn't really good, and it is pretty terrible, but there is no need to get edgy and start ordering edgy things back to the reboot.
wolfpup3 ...I mean the original series is only 13 years old NOW. What's the point, when they could just reair that? I heard some lame allusion to how "different" things are now compared with 2005...like...I mean smartphones are more common? There's a few things? Nothing that actually matters for a show. I'd vastly prefer that they just keep going, age all the characters some more, but okay, I'll give it a shot...I disagree with the claims that the animation in this is bad. It's probably bad for what the show SHOULD be, bad compared with the earlier series, but not actually bad in general...it's just more "cartoony". Would be okay for a generic "cartoon" show. And that seems to be the problem with this in general. The original had an ongoing story, and deep characterization, with great characters. It was a shockingly well written action/adventure/superhero thing that had depth, great action, real stakes, great mythology, it was kind of creepy in a good way, etc. This appears to...have basically none of that. It's sort of like you cross a Looney Toons sketch with Ben 10 characters and get...this. Only frankly that would have a chance of being SOMEWHAT clever. It's not unwatchable, but it's a joke next to the earlier series. My "devil's advocate" thought about it is "well, this is aimed at kids"...except the ORIGINAL was theoretically for kids too. It was actually more than deep enough for adults to enjoy, and it's not like kids can't enjoy depth too...so what the heck is THIS thing's excuse?The first episode is kind of astonishing too as...it's not actually a first episode. Ben already has the Omnitrix. There's no explanation for any of that. I mean how he GETS the Omnitrix, why they're traveling together, all of that in the original series was a thousand times more interesting than this pointless episode, which is honestly I think the worst single episode of Ben 10 I've ever seen. I thought Alien Force was actually worse than the original (which I wasn't expecting, given the characters were older). Haven't gotten to see Ultimate Alien yet as it's not available anywhere. Omniverse-I get why people trash it, and it's probably the worst of the 4-more-or-less connected shows, but it's still MASSIVELY better than this.Regarding the acting...it's great to have Tara Strong back as Ben. I mean if you're going to have him as a 10 year old again, it's great it wasn't recast. Probably my favorite part of the episode was just hearing her do "Aaaah MAN!" just the way she did it 13 years ago...it's perfect. If only the writing made it mean anything. Max...was amazing in the original series. Both as a character, and the voice actor, Paul Eiding, is amaaaazing. Adults will recognize him from Metal Gear...and his character on the original series is worthy of his great performance. The new Max is David Kayne, who I think is actually a great actor in his own right, but...it's just not even 1/10th as cool as the "real" Max. Doesn't have even close to the character or gravitas or oddness. And obviously the writing here means it doesn't really matter.Gwen is new too. The actor seems like good casting...but again it doesn't matter without quality writing.And it's worth noting that unlike the earlier series, these are just 10 minutes long, emphasizing the "this is a Looney-Tunes-style-cartoon" nature of what this series seems to be going for.If you try and don't like these, PLEASE try the 2005 series. Do NOT assume that that's anything like this is, other than superficially.
finaldishonored don't watch it just don't this is the worst version of anything ever I loved the original it was funny action packed this is stupid and I don't even know what to call it its like shedding skin watching 5 seconds of this worst show ever stick to the original I said what I needed to just keep away from this
drewdagamer What is it with cartoon network lately and taking a good show, and baby-afying it. Honestly, I used to like the other Ben 10, it had enough action, serious characters, a real plot, that kinda thing. This though? Should have been named Ben 3, maybe that way it would know who the shows target audience is. The characters just seem to be, doing everything just to be funny, but it often comes out as dumb. Also, why do the characters look like newborn babies? Like, the animator wanted to do cutesy anime blush, but, its on a cartoon, and its permanently on there. Please, Avoid this at all costs, and if someone important ACTUALLY reads this, burn it.
