Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

ScoobyWell Great visuals, story delivers no surprises

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

benschmidt-48911 The show had good elements. The pollution and caring about our planet (being environmentally friendly).But there were elements, that were much to much of political doctrin.Spoiler alert!Overpopulation. I don't know if captain planet and the planeteers ever was released in countries like India, China (althought they are reglemented by the one child policie some years ago, now its limited to two) and even Africa.But the funny thing is: Europe and Northamerica, even Russia don't really have problem like overpopulation. But other parts of the world do have.So what I disliked was this topic and all the other hidden political agenda (as a kid you may not notice its about social policy). Its a children series not a teen - series. So much to early to put topics like overpopulation (that requires Sex or in vitro fertilisation) in an animated TV series.

TheBlueHairedLawyer Captain Planet, I used to like it when I was a little kid, and I thought that saving the earth and going green and all that other garbage was so important. But I was seven, I also loved the color pink and wanted to be a pony when I grew up. My opinions back then on environmentalism were largely influenced by adults, by the school's forced recycling program, by movies like Ferngully and The Toxic Crusaders and that sort of thing.Looking back on it now, I've only just realized how much environmentalism is forced on kids. Kids these days are told early-on that "polluters are monsters, hippies are wonderful" and that they need to recycle, drive hybrid cars when they grow up, buy only biodegradable organic items and hate pollution. I used to believe all those things, but since then I've realized that all of that "go green" extremism garbage is all just a waste of time.Captain Planet is pretty dorky, just saying. The main characters are a bunch of hippie teenagers and this adult man who looks like he took a few too many steroids, flying around and attacking anything or anyone that causes pollution. His enemy looks like a walking, talking cheese slice wearing a red leotard, Captain Pollution. Captain Pollution's cohorts are all pollution-loving teenagers (I'm on Captain Pollution's side). In all honesty Captain Pollution and his group were the only ones on this show who weren't pathetic cardboard cutouts of ideal environmentalists. The soundtrack to the whole show is really lame and I'm surprised I never noticed this when I was a little kid. This show isn't worth anyone's time, it's a waste of animation and money that could've been used to make something much better.

ryanbarnes90 I was quite young when I watched this show (I was only 4-5 when I watched it), but I remember it quite well as I remember other shows of the era. I believe this show had a great message, and anyone who tries to say that this show had an "agenda" needs to stop obsessing over politics for once. It was a charming show that had a lot of morals to teach kids. The animation quality was...not so good, especially now that I watch it again on YouTube... But I didn't notice it at the time and I just enjoyed watching the adventures the Planeteers went on. Comparing the shows nowadays to this? Well there's no competition. The shows nowadays WISH they had the charm of this show and all the other shows during the 80s and 90s. Ninja Turtles, this show, Garfield and Friends, Hey Arnold, Rugrats, etc. are all shows that put the shows from this generation to shame. I'm so grateful I'm not a kid of this generation.

BigBadaBruce The precursor to The Power Rangers it could almost be said, this was a well-veiled attack on Environmental Damage. This was what taught most young children about the Environment, most kids remember this show, the use of a superhero and tackling obvious real problems was always a good shout to TV Execs, but this was one of the starters. Every vehicle and machines used by The Planeteers was either solar powered or other in order to not destroy Earth's economy, Captain Planet had no distinct look in terms of fashions in other countries, and the main 5 characters was well spread, helping it to become world wide popular, and delivered a great message. As Captain Planet used to say "The Power Is Yours!"
