Ben 10

Doesn't follow up on the really good lake monster episode. Instead it takes several steps back with a mediocre story, a rushed ending, and some below average action. The story for one had a boring premise; aliens that disguise themselves as old people? The follow up also wasn't pretty. Not that it was bad or anything, it just feels like something that was written for a 1940 B rated sci fi movie. The action, well, there wasn't much of it; the best ones were alien grandpa wrestling Ben and that was nothing special. And the ending; felt like because they ran out of time they had to conclude it really fast.

The group goes to visit Aunt Vera whose now living in retirement community. Ben witnesses some of the residents climbing walls, and other superhuman behavior. When Grandpa Max, is affected it's up to Ben and Gwen to find out what's going on. While shopping at an ice cream store in the desert, thieves attempt to steal an ATM. Ben and Max capture the them, but their problems don't end there. They drive to a retirement center to visit Ben's Aunt Vera, but something very strange is happening here. Ben finds out that there is an evil species of alien shape-shifters, called the Limax, kidnapping and replacing the residents in order to devour them later. Now, Ben must save the day without even being sure who the enemy is. They eventually find out that the Limax intend to devour the senior citizens they've kidnapped, and with teamwork they are able to send them home empty-handed.

I think this episode is really good. First, showing how the elderly live is always very funny and second, the acrobatic stunts of the senior citizens when they were Limax was incredible too, and scary in a way. There was plenty of heart-pumping action there as Ben and Gwen have to figure out a way to bring the old folks back to normal. I think the coolest part of this episode was the chase when that old man Limax chased Ben around the whole neighbourhood when he spotted Ben spotting his abnormalities. The episode also encouraged children to be respectful towards the elders.

This episode was the episode that I saw last. It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad. I loved the part where Ghostfreak was talking to Gwen in the seashell and made Gwen think that the shell was talking to her. I also liked the part where Ben was trying to get away from the old man in the golf cart and when Gwen was riding on Wildmutt to try to find the senior citizens. When Gwen said to Ben: 'Ever since you got that watch, you've been a magnet for trouble' and then Ben says 'You're right' and acts like a magnet and sticks to Gwen, I laughed out loud. I also liked the comment Ben made about old people and prune juice.

I thought I might die because I watched this episode, I mean I like the series and at but come on; this episode stunk! I seriously thought I might gag watching this, it stunk so badly! I mean come on how boring can you get! The foster baby we had at the time even started crying when I was holding him during the episode! This is certainly the worst episode so far of this series! If I were you I would take my advice and not watch this episode at all! Instead go online and watch Naruto on you tube.com.

This was a funyy episode and he uses almost all of his forms they are cool. I mean it was a little exciting but not great it could have been better it diffenitly could be better. He uses ghost freak upgrade heat blast and wild mut and he also uses excellorate. I it was pretty funny but that's about it.

Awesome! Aliens in a desert retirement community taking over people!



The fourth episode of Ben 10 is, yet again, another great installment in the season and series! This episode includes aliens unlike the last one, which was just a simple sea-monster (Only a sea-monster! :P).



Let’s look at this episode! It starts out in the middle of nowhere at and ice cream shop. Ben and Gwen are inside trying to find their liking, while Grandpa Max is outside waiting. Unfortunately, there are robbers lurking around here to steal money from a nearby ATM. Now is about the time when we are introduced to Upgrade, Ben’s most recent new form.



Upgrade is voiced by Tara Strong also, and the voice doesn’t sound any different from Ben himself. Upgrade was definitely a neat addition into this episode considering he can take over any type of mechanical object or machine.



Later in Aunt Vera’s house, we are introduced to Ghostfreak. Ben exploits the power of being a ghost and tries to spook Gwen. In the process, Ben also discovers that something is really strange in this neighborhood.



The Limax, the shapeshifting, blobby aliens taking over the retirement center are the main villain in this episode. Ben heroes it up again when he drives away the Limax with water.



But is this the end? When grandpa, Ben and Gwen leave, Aunt Vera smirks like she knows something. On the road, we zoom off into a canyon and see a Limax crawling about a cave.



Find out later in the series what actually happened to the Limax! Tune in again next week for another great Ben 10 episode!

This episode was one of the best so far. When Ben, Gwen, and Max decide to visit their Aunt Vera for the weekend, Ben reacts to it right away and identifies how he feels when they go there. When they arrive, Vera the pincher pinches both Gwen's and Ben's faces, which I thought was very funny. Ben though continues to complain how weird old people can be. But when he discovers that weird things are happening to the other old people, he is not aware that the Limax are up to their weird behavior. But as the story ends, Ben suddenly had a change of heart on his visit at Vera's.



This episode overall deserves a 10 out of 10 rating. It was really funny. :)
