ReBoot: The Guardian Code (2018)

It has potential despite a slow start

[7/10 · 9 April 2018]

Screw the bad reviews. I am a fan from the beginning and liked it. I just got done watching TGC and the only real negative thing I have to say is that the beginning was very slow paced up until the last couple of episodes. The 5 teenagers playing the primary characters did a very good job in fleshing out their roles. It was interesting to see that Mainframe apparently was Austin's dad's computer. Then when we met the infamous user that would input the games I almost fell over laughing when I saw his shrine to the original show in his room. The giant Mike the TV statue was cool to see. Hex was her usual creepy self and Megabyte also appears to have his own agenda outside of being The Sourcerer's pawn. One plot hole I can see was how was Hex still active even though Mainframe was powered down. Once Mainframe was powered back up it was fun to see Bob, Dot, and Enzo. Now they did say that they could visit Mainframe any time they wanted. I could see them coming back for information on Megabyte and Hex, and maybe working with Bob and Dot so they could travel safely from Mainframe and help them in Battling The Sourcerer, Hex, and Megabyte. Now the big question are the rest of the classic characters going to appear? Granted V.E.R.A. could help them catch up on things that have gone on in the 20 years that Mainframe was powered down. Maybe even get Mainframe some upgrades to make it more compatible with modern systems. I think this show definitely has potential if it is handled right.
