ReBoot: The Guardian Code

The characters begin by being one dimensional, and proceed to being completely generic. Stock teenagers #1-4 are joined by robot #1 to fight bad-guy #5. Every episode we just mow down waves of unnamed minions. I think the comparisons to Power Rangers are somewhat unfair, as the rangers always had a unique monster to fight, in the same way, every episode. Ten episodes in, and I can't even remember the names of the Teenagers with Attitude. They make that much of an impression.

The ReBoot name tricked me into giving the first release a full watch, hoping that there would be something to like. Every episode got progressively dumber and dumber until the finale: when the show decided to directly insult the classic fan base.

I really feel I should invoice Rainmaker for the time I spent trying to like this cinematic bowl of cream of wheat. It was at best, bland. I guess some of the robot's faces were kinda funny?

I was a fan of the original "Reboot" and was looking forward to the new reboot. What a disappointment. All I kept thinking of while watching it was Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I mean really, stuntman in suits. And why live action? What made the original so good was the CGI. And the stories. And the characters. Maybe this will get better.

It clearly states "Inspired by Reboot" but while watching the first episode, I was left with the distinct feeling they had never seen an episode of the original series.

Nothing resembling Bob, or Dot, or Enzo, or Fong, or the user, or any of the sprite citizens of Mainframe.

This is a 1 and done show for me. Sat through an episode and i'm finished with it. I might have been kinder in my review if it had a more honest title like "Generic Teenagers in CyberSpace"

This show has gone to great lengths to not be anything like the original ReBoot, and in one episode openly mocks the old fans. Ok what if it's not for the old fans? Well, why not make something new in that case?

The show is by no means ReBoot. It is a patchwork of other shows and movies like Tron and VR Troopers.

This show couldn't stand on its own feet even if you took any aspect of ReBoot out of the equation.

It is almost like someone had the chance to publish their fanfiction and they weren't even a fan.

This show has no heart or soul, don't waste your time with it.

I tried to persevere, but its impossible. Concepts, story and imagery is for primary school kids, but unfortunately as an adult, not for me.
