It is what it is.
I think the movie was pretty good for cartoon network budget. Other TV movies are far worse than this one is said to be. The acting is just as good as any Disney or NICK live action show. It was just as good as saved by the bell. Not like anyone was expecting emmys or anything for this. I watched it with my kids who were greatly entertained. A 6 year old and an 8 year old. They liked it and watched it twice. So apparently the movie did its job and entertained kids and helped fuel the imagination. Let's face it, if you are 15 or older and still watching cartoons and complaining about them, you need a life or you have found yourself getting older and should try some other entertainment other than cartoons.
A Decent but Flawed Live-Action Adaptation
Ben 10: Race Against Time is a live-action adaptation of the popular animated series, following the same character Ben Tennyson as he uses the Omnitrix to battle a new villain named Eon. While the movie has some enjoyable moments, it ultimately falls short of capturing the spirit of the original show.
One of the strengths of the movie is the use of practical effects to bring the aliens to life. The creature designs are faithful to their animated counterparts and the action scenes are well-executed. The cast, including Graham Phillips as Ben and Lee Majors as Grandpa Max, give solid performances and add some humor to the film.
However, the movie suffers from a lack of character development and a weak plot. The story is rushed and the characters are underdeveloped, leaving little emotional investment in their journey. The villain, Eon, is also poorly developed and lacks the menace of the show's previous antagonists.
Furthermore, the movie deviates from the established lore of the series, with some of the key elements of the original show being changed or omitted entirely. This will likely disappoint fans of the show who were hoping for a faithful adaptation.
Despite its flaws, Ben 10: Race Against Time still manages to provide some entertainment value. The action scenes are fun, the creature designs are impressive, and the humor is enjoyable. However, it fails to capture the heart and soul of the original show, making it a disappointing adaptation for die-hard fans.
Overall, Ben 10: Race Against Time is a decent but flawed live-action adaptation of the beloved animated series. While it has some entertaining moments, it ultimately falls short of capturing the magic of the original. It's worth a watch for fans of the show, but it's not a must-see for casual viewers.

I loved it ben 10 was at its best during these years it was funny with the ice cream and the teachers the talent show ben and Gwen were at their best the struggle between ben and his parents was done well so I give it an 8 out of 10 enjoy it you should give it a shot the CG is pretty good
Not bad but a bit boring
