A lot of fun.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

I've caught some episodes of this cartoon show when I was a kid, and remembered it for having a heroic storyline where superheros work together to save the environment. Here, a quintet of teenagers team up to encourage everyday citizens to be responsible in saving and preserving the environment and, when disasters strike, they can band together and summon a superhero named Captain Planet to save the day.It's a good cartoon to remind the little kids to be responsible for cleaning up after themselves, recycle and to keep stuff clean around them. And, what more inspiring to kids than to have a superhero to remind them to do these good deeds. There are some good action-packed scenes as well. Too bad saving the environment as gotten so polarized nowadays.Grade B-

Oh Captain Planet and the Planeteers. Where to start. Well,you know how people always say that the cartoons from the 90's were the best? That's not true. Yeah,I love a lot of 90's cartoons,but there were some 90's 'toons that were terrible. One of them was Captain Planet and the Planeteers". It's extremely cheesy and stupid,but you just can't help laughing at it(not with it). *WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD! IF YOU DON'T LIKE SPOILERS THEN SKIP AHEAD TO THE END OF MY REVIEW!* OK. So here's the plot. Gaia (The Earth goddess from Greek mythology) is upset with pollution on Earth so she summons the Planeteers! The 5 Planeteers are kids from around the world! Kwame: He's from Africa and has the power of Earth. Wheeler: He's from America and controls the power of fire. Linka: She's from the Soviet Union(This was changed to "Eastern Europe" after the USSR fell to keep it PC)and has the power of wind. Gi: She's from Thailand and controls water. Ma-Ti: She's from Brazil and has the power of heart (What the hell? "Heart" isn't an element! Oh well). What the Planeteers all have in common is that they're all one dimensional and lack personality! They also have a flying car(Solar powered of course). They can also summon Captain Planet! A superhero that helps the environment and has a mullet! Also, his sexual orientation is questionable. Now on to the villains. They all seem to be PURPOSELY trying to pollute the Earth(In real life polluters unknowingly pollute). Apparently they don't realize that they'll die to if they kill the planet they live on. Also one of the villains is called "Duke Nukem"(Has no connection to the video game franchise). He's supposed to represent nuclear power. Didn't the creators of this show realize that nuclear power is BETTER for the environment then fossil fuels? Anyway the shows views on taking care of the environment are questionable at best. As one reviewer pointed out,in the poaching episode instead of dealing with the actual problem (demand for rhino ivory)they go to the poachers themselves. Wouldn't it be better to make the market for rhino ivory go away by introducing medicine that ACTUALLY works and simply dive the poachers out of business? Also they seem to think businesses that pollute are simply evil and want the environment dead. How about getting businesses to install eco-friendly policies instead? Also the lines are SO cheesy! "The power is yours!" "Let our powers combine!" ""By you powers combined! I am Captain Planet!"<---This one always has me in tears laughing! Oh and for the people who claim that Captain Planet is some Communist/Liberal/Socialist plot to brainwash children;get real. It's not some evil plot to destroy Capitalism,it's just a crappy cartoon that you can't help but laugh at! In other words. Captain Planet is so cheesy it's laughable!

Caring for the environment is not a bad thing. We need the environment - practically and aesthetically. However the cartoon is biased and tends to exaggerate things for simplicity. I understand that it's a children's show and you can't expect it to be rational but still it could have been better. I think the idea behind it is great - a superhero who cares for the earth. But I also think the show should be remade to introduce more rational approaches towards environmental issues or maybe show kids actually cleaning trash with their powers. They should also teach kids to try and find out ways to reduce pollution through science, etc. and not just go kill industrialists. Otherwise this is just an average action cartoon with the extremely good guys vs extremely the bad guys, nothing in between. I enjoyed this cartoon as a kid but this is what I feel now.

This show is a bunch of hippie BS if you ask me. I watched this show when I was young and bought into all this hippie crap about how nuclear power/having more than two kids in a family/driving a car too much is somehow evil of us. Once I finally grew up and realized the facts and how stupid shows like this trick our kids today in believing things that are just flat out stupid. It's also funny how the group of people are all diverse and from every corner of the world, and they get along so well. Real Cute. I give this show a 1 out of 10 because of its stupid agenda to feed BS into kids heads about things that are just flat out not true.
