Awesome Movie

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

My Life as a Teenage Robot follows the escapades of Jenny, a super-powered robot with a super sensitive teenage heart. Her primary function is protecting the planet from any disaster. But, like all teenagers, she has her own ideas about how she would like to live her life. She's bored with being a superhero and wants to do something really exciting like go to high school. A very good animated series by Nickelodeon that will appeal to both little kids, teenagers and definitely their parents since although it's action packed for sure? It's also with heart too. (A+)

Thank God this show doesn't air on TV anymore, because this show does not deserve any positive recognition whatsoever. My Life As A Teenage Robot is everything bad about modern cartoons. First off, the animation sucks. Yeah, some of the crew who worked on this show also worked on relatively good shows such as The Powerpuff Girls, but the animation here is still very awful. The character designs look very stupid, and in some shots they appear to look like random doodles. And secondly, and most importantly, I hate the main character of this show, XJ9. If I'm watching a movie or a TV show, there's supposed to be a main character that I can root for and is an overall good person who learns whenever he/she does something wrong. Unfortunately, XJ9 (who is also called Jenny) is the most selfish, rude, and disgusting piece of rotting flesh I have ever seen. The one episode that really infuriates me is the Preschool Dropout one, where she knocks out a class of kindergartners for teasing her, but even worse, they all think it's awesome because she was "showing off her powers". I would have beaten the unholy Hell out of her if I were one of those kids. This character needs to be dragged into the street and beaten endlessly with a crowbar. For a good Nicktoon, watch early SpongeBob, Rocko's Modern Life, Jimmy Neutron, The Wild Thornberries, and The Angry Beavers. If you're a Nick Jr fan, watch Little Bear or Franklin (the traditionally animated one). Avoid this horrendous pile of garbage at all costs.

I'd never really heard of My Life as a Teenage Robot, but it caught my eye stumbling across channels one day. I stayed tuned as the episodes kept rolling, and it struck me - this show is really good!The plot's pretty simple - mad scientist Dr. Wakeman programmed XJ-9 to defend the Earth, but after being discovered by her human neighbors, Brad and Tuck, "Jenny" decides she'd much rather fit in with humans - but has to get over some of the social hurdles of being a 6 foot-tall, steel-plated, heavily armed war machine.The show does really well with its premise. Even at their extremes, the characters are all likable, and have some great voice talent to back them up. The pacing is very relaxed, without a lot of the exhausting hyperactivity you see in a lot of newer shows.The animation has a very traditional style. The characters are a mix of '60s Hanna-Barbera, Astro Boy, and Felix the Cat. The backgrounds look hand-painted with abstract Art Deco and Populuxe designs. And despite being a scifi-themed show, there's none of the conspicuous CGI common to classics Futurama and Invader Zim.I was just getting started with this show when I found out it had been canceled for a couple of years, which is a shame because it still seemed to have a lot of energy in it. I'd call it an underrated classic for fans of scifi and animation, and probably good enough for Nick's intended audience, too.

One thing: It's another cheesy superhero-fighting-crime crap-o-palooza show. Another thing: There is way too much giving up too soon with the job stuff. To some, I may not be making sense here with my grammar. But to others, I'm proving my point very well. My 4-year-old sister watches repeats of this show every Saturday morning and the plots never change. A bad guy is trying to destroy XJ9, the teenage robot who likes to be called Jenny, and the bad guys want to take over the world but Jenny stops them just in time...blah, blah, blah. No offends to the guys who keep thinking of superhero shows, but honestly why doesn't anyone come up with better ideas for a show? This show is all reruns, and if you want to kill 30 minutes of your time, go right ahead and watch this junky cartoon.
