This is How Movies Should Be Made
... View MoreThe movie is wildly uneven but lively and timely - in its own surreal way

... View MoreWhat sets aside my review from the other (justified) negative reviews for this show is that I was the target demographic at the initial time of broadcast.People compare Bakugan to shows like "Pokemon", "Beyblade" and "Yu- Gi-Oh" describing it as either ripping them off or following in their "terrible" footsteps. However this works for this show and the three aforementioned shows all had similar target audiences and were successful in satisfying them.This puts these comparisons in a very favorable light for Bakugan.The show itself lacks substance, depth and common sense when viewed through the eyes of an adult but for a child, these traits do not constitute a good show. They constitute a bad show that requires more brainpower to understand and enjoy.Bakugan taken at face value is a very poor show clearly designed to push toys to children however, it does this extremely well.I remember enjoying this show a large amount and would urge any parent or older sibling to allow a younger child who has rejected "better" animes in the past the chance to watch something they will enjoy.This show on its own: 3/10This show for children: 7/10 as it still falls short of other similar shows like "Pokemon", "Beyblade" and "Yu-Gi-Oh"
... View MoreAs if horrible shows as "Pokemon" "Yugioh" and "Beyblade" weren't bad enough, this atrocious series tries to follow a similar story line to those shows I've mentioned before, without trying to hide the fact this is a complete rip-off of those (equally bad) cartoons.Well, just like "Beyblade" "Yugioh" and "DuelMasters" the only purpose of this shows is to make kids buy some silly toys that appear in this series. I know that cartoons like this are aimed to very little children, but...This is one of the stupidest and most boring shows that I've ever watched in my life, and being aimed to kids doesn't excuse it of being so bad.If you hate the anime shows as "Pokemon" or "Yugioh" avoid this show like plague.
... View Morewhen i first saw this anime i thought it was alright but could improve i am pretty damn sure that this show wouldn't last a year summery One day mysterious cards fall from the sky and are picked up by hundreds of kids. The kids then develop a game know as Bakugan. However, there is more to the game then they thought. The Bakugan come from another world known as Vestroia, where the evil Naga is trying to conquer the world by finding the Infinity Core. Now the kids and Bakugan must team up to stop this threatBakugan Battle Brawlers is an anime series based on a strategic card game which is played with magnetic, spring-loaded marbles. The series debuted in Japan on TV Tokyo on April 5, 2007. Then, it was dubbed into English and began airing in Canada on Teletoon during the summer of 2007. In the United States, an English dub version of the series made its debut on Cartoon Network on February 24, 2008.
... View MoreThis is exactly what this is. It seems to me as if the toys were made, and the writers weren't given a set of rules to work from to write the game-playing parts into the show.The rules of the game change from 'battle' to 'battle', with the sequence of play having no bearing at all on whose turn it is to play.This is not the way to advertise your product in a show, marketers. Not at all. The target market, likely children between six and ten years of age, are not as dumb as you seem to think they are. They understand that games have rules, and that rules are consistent. A game with good rules will sell. A game with rules they can understand will sell.Going from the show, the rules seem completely irrelevant, inconsistent, and pretty much unplayable. My 8 year old niece watched the show just once, decided the game didn't make any sense, and won't watch it anymore.Then, additionally, there's the plot of the show itself... if you can call it that.Right in the opening credits, the main character states 'My friends and I created this game', and shortly after that, in one of the very first episodes, the same character is saying 'I've never heard of that.' It's inconsistent, tries to steal elements from numerous other toy-selling shows, and fails to make them gel together with any kind of coherency.A very sad effort on all sides. At least they didn't make all of the characters chibis.
