There also seemed to be something wrong with Ben's parents since they acted like flaky, clueless freaks who had escaped from a Sixties hippie commune. In terms of negative aspects to the film, the CGI was terrible but I don't think you can expect multi-million pound Hollywood standards in a made-for-TV film for kids. Lee Majors played the role of Max Tennyson, the steadfast and loving grandfather to the cousins, and he was effective as the character without over-shadowing the two child actors since this was more their show. In fact, it was actually refreshing to see children acting like children instead of mini teenagers (not one hint of teeny-bopper romance!) or cool, collected little adults who have the answer to everything. Ben was prone to showing off, could be moody yet was brave and determined to protect those around him while Gwen was slightly more mature and equally as loyal but could be impatient and snippy, which is exactly how I see children of their age acting. I am not in the least familiar with 'Ben 10' so cannot really comment on how faithful this live-action film is to cartoon show and only on what I saw as an unbiased source! In terms of the actors, I thought Graham Phillips and Haley Ramm did a reasonable job in their respective roles as Ben and Gwen, depicting the characters in a realistic age-appropriate manner (although if Ben and Gwen meant to be only ten then they were a shade too old). However, it seems the excitement is not over when a mysterious villain stalks Ben and is intent on possessing the Omnitrix for himself. After a summer of fighting aliens and saving the planet alongside his grandfather Max and his twelve-year-old cousin Gwen, Ben is now struggling with the normality of school. This film centres around twelve-year-old Ben Tennyson, who has the ability to turn into various alien forms for up to ten minutes at a time with the aid of his Omnitrix. 'Ben 10: Race Against Time' certainly qualifies as one such film that fits the profile. These films serve as good background noise if I'm also reading or on the computer and often have plots that don't require much investment and, as such, can be relaxing. He complains about not being able to transform back to normal, just as the Omnitrix flashes red and he is reverted to his normal form.I am definitely far older than the average age demography of fans for the 'Ben 10' fandom but I do enjoy watching a kiddie flick on occasion. Max suggests that Heatblast start a back burn, so that the fires can smoke eachother out.Īfter stopping the fire, Heatblast, Gwen, and Max sit around a camp fire roasting marshmallows, with Heatblast simply holding them. He then explains what happened, just as Max comes running up. Heatblast, sets her foot on fire and reveals that its actually Ben. Once she see that it is alive she hits Heatblast over the head with the fire extinguisher and threatens to spray him with it. Once Gwen runs into the burning area looking for Ben, she sprays Heatblast with the fire extinguisher, thinking that it was just more flames. Once he does however, he begins trying to stomp them out, which ironically just made the fire even larger. Having fun playing around with his new abilities, Ben didn't notice that the trees that he was throwing the fire at were beginning to light on fire. Now intrigued by this change, he begins to play around and he discovers that he can project flames from his hands. Exclaiming that he was on fire, he eventually discovered that it didn't actually burn. After first seeing himself, he panics and runs around. The first alien that Ben Tennyson transforms into only moments after finding the Omnitrix.
