    TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
    Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
    SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
    Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
    Romeo Garcia Men i remember when this cartoons came out it was the "born" of animated computer characters (early year was Jurassic Park) so for the time was very awesome (the other awesome cartoons was Transformers:Beast wars) so i can't simple believe it that already spend 24 years!!!This cartoons was a different story for kids because in many ways they introduce the "computer" languaje for the future generations and they make it great Of course the animation was very unique and many years later a lot of new comers say that REBOOT was his inspiration.Like a say before i glad to be part of the generation of REBOOT and is make me very sad that be never be a cartoon like this in the future.
    Foreverisacastironmess This was one of my all-time childhood favourites and it still is today. The animation style was so out of this world and was nothing remotely like anything I'd ever seen before and I was hooked, from the first show. Every once a week it was a little bit of super-fun happiness at the thought of getting home and watching ReBoot! How it looks is still kind of startling to this day, even to me, and I still get take aback for a second when I haven't seen it in a while! It had such a rich spirit of fun and adventure to it, and as it went on and was eventually free to do so, it skillfully introduced a little welcome darkness and tragedy into the mix as well. The iconic intro always got you in just the exact right kind of mindset to get into the world of the show, and of all the variations, I liked the one with Megabyte the best. Such an utterly fantastic and commanding villain. Calm and cultured, calculating and deadly. It may not have seemed so at first glance, but of the two viruses, he was the truly destructive and malevolent one. What a performance from the late- great Tony Jay to leave behind, you can really tell that he relished every last second that he got to voice the role. Heroes and villains alike, all the characters were terrific and I just loved to watch them. The Binomes are a bit annoying and stupid at first but they do grow on you a lot, they used them in a lot of funny referential skits. I liked the Mulder and Scully ones! My favourite character is insane chaos personified, Hexadecimal because she was often hilariously outrageous, but you also always got a sense of the awesome power that she commanded. And I loved the spidery way she glided around and would wave her hand over her mask to give it a new fixed expression, I found the idea of her fascinating and a work of art in itself. Also her warped and often scary but genuine love for Bob was touching and she actually undergoes the most character development, going from a straight-up villainess to a real hero who sacrifices herself to save everyone. As a kid I never saw beyond the episode where Bob is shot into the wild Web by Megabyte and Enzo claims his badge as the new Guardian because that was when CITV decided to stop broadcasting it. It was the better part of 20 years before I got to see the rest and really take in and appreciate fully just how much the series evolves from what it starts out as. It was such an amazing concept that the sprites' realm of Mainframe may have been an individual computer from the other side and was like an island floating in space, and their whole universe was part of a vast web/internet - whatever you wanna call it, and that the "User", presumably the human being who operates the computer in the 'real world', may as well have been god as far as the Sprites were concerned, and that when a game was put into the system, to the User it was harmless fun, but to them it was a sporting, but still desperate struggle that they absolutely had to win, 'lest a giant cube-shaped chunk of their city be permanently obliterated! The metaphorical implications can practically be interpreted in a hundred different ways! This was a show that had everything, and it's just as enjoyable today as when it first aired. And no way in hell is it just blind nostalgic fandom that keeps it alive, it really is a show that holds up beautifully. The amount of references to pop culture, video games and computer technology that is excellently integrated into near-every episode alone adds hugely to the fun appeal and watch-ability factor of it. I'll always love this show, it'll never lose any of its magic or lustre in my eyes. Thank for ya time, and with that..heck all I can think of to say is "REBOOT!!!"
    emasterslake This was one of the TV shows I grew up watching. Remenbered first seeing it on ABC 12 years ago. Only seen a few episodes at first. Got to see more of Seasons 1 and 2 and the new Season 3 when it aired on Cartoon Network.This cartoon is unlike anything you'd see. It's taken place inside a computer. The characters are virtual and saber like beings. The ones that look like humans are called Sprites. While the others are shape like 1 & 0(computer language) and some large numbers as well.Has the stuff and parts you'd find in any PC. Only it's more like a City. The city is called "Mainframe" and it's infected with 2 Viruses who are wreck havoc in this system. The city's only hope is this Guardian(A sprite that defends Systems from Viruses and other harmful things) named Bob.The other problem besides Viruses are these Game cubes that drop slowly from the sky. You have to be inside before it hits the ground. If you loose or didn't get into the game then it'll cause damage to the system. If you were inside it after a Game Over then you'll get Nullifide and become a Null(a mindless slug thing).So it's important for a Guardian to win these games so that way there's no damage or Nullifying in the system.This Cartoon is a must see. It has a lot of characters to admire and hate. It ran for 3 complete Seasons and 1 unfinished Season. It's a shame this series doesn't have much fame to it, it kept getting canceled and brought back more than twice.But it is a really cool cartoon to watch. Much cooler than Jimmy Neutron. Proves there was something before Jimmy Neutron as well.The incomplete Season 4 episodes are found on DVD. That one had a good start but it shouldn't of ended in a cliffhanger. You're able to either Downloading them or wait for a decent DVD Box sets to come out.It's a real treat to watch.
    layer8 It's 1994. I'm 11 years old, riding on a bus with my mom. I look around at all the advertisements, and one catches my eye. ReBoot. After all these years, I can still remember the tagline: "In Mainframe, no one dies. They are erased."Of course, back then I had no idea what exactly ReBoot was. But from the moment I saw Megabyte in "The Tearing" some weeks later, I knew this would be one of my favorite shows.I was fascinated by the computer animation, seeing that the computer we had at the time was a 386SX. That's what initially got me hooked. The show aptly filled the role of a "cartoon", but I could also see that it was much more than that. As the show progressed the characters became more real, more defined. Even then, I had a nasty habit of pointing out inconsistencies in TV shows, but ReBoot performed admirably in this area. The stories were never boring, and often cleverly incorporated details from earlier episodes. All the loose ends (the web, the twin cities, Lost Angles, Dot's father, etc.) that I feared would never be explained, were.As the fun-adventures-of-the-moment turned into the dark, painful struggles of season 3, I was completely mesmerised, and felt for the characters as if they were real, and then rejoiced when everything turned out alright at the end. Very few presentations on either the big or small screen have ever elicited such a strong reaction from me.In every sense, ReBoot was a great show. The characters, the plots, the visuals, it was all amazing. I'm only sorry season 4 ended on such a cliffhanger. More episodes, I say!5 out of 5 stars.
