Ben 10: Destroy All Aliens (2012 TV Movie)
9/10
Ben 10 in the ultimate alien rumble!
2 April 2012
As the classic franchise went on, awesome as it still is, I was starting to miss the old days when Ben first became a hero. Then this movie came out and brought back the shape-shifting hero's younger self into an awesome, action-packed, computer-generated adventure. Get ready to set your watches because this is Ben 10: Destroy All Aliens!

Summer vacation is over. Ben is back in his home town to once again return to a school-failing, bullied life. Soon enough, trouble comes looking for Ben as a mysterious alien vengefully searches for answers involving the malfunctioning of Ben's omnitrix and the disappearance of Azmuth (the creator of the omnitrix). Our hero now finds himself in a conflict that has the fate of the world hanging by a thread, but thankfully he has Grampa Max, cousin Gwen, and rock-hard Tetrax to help him out. It's hero time!

So nice to see the old look of the characters and it's even nicer to see them in CG (which itself is pretty impressive). The old alien forms are back in all their super-powered glory with the same actors doing their voices. The action scenes are absolutely insane, virtually everything in sight gets destroyed as Ben, Gwen, and the aliens duke it out around the world. These may be the best action scenes in the entire franchise, and that's saying a lot! The story is pretty interesting too as it keeps you guessing on what's going to happen next. It makes enough connections between the first and second series, which to me are satisfactory.

Overall, this is the best Ben 10 has to offer. I went in this not expecting too much, and as a result I was totally blown away by all the stuff that happens throughout the film. I definitely recommend anyone to check this out-of-this-world flick out and enjoy.
