X-Men Volume 5
SCORE: 60
It is always sad to see shows go past
their prime. Or for the writers to just give up, and throw some things
together. Either of those could be why X-Men Volume 5 turned out so
poorly. It feels thrown together at the last minute. Few of the episodes
carried much of a storyline. There are a couple of two parters - but
that is it.
The theme song changed for the worse. The animation changed here and
there - again for the worse. The voice actor for Gambit changed - again
for the worse. X-Men Volume 5 is a really poor send off for the show.
Especially with how things ended so open ended. The X-Men almost feel
like they are going to disband as well.
Like previous volumes we have violence, enticement to lust, pro
evolution, and anti-God. I suspect many of those helped kill off this
show as well as the previously mentioned problems. The show made it
seventy-six episodes before it was sent out to pasture.
I really hope Disney and Marvel bring the Spider-Man show from this time
period out on DVD. It was a way better show than X-Men ever was. It
deserves a chance on the market place in this day and age. Maybe one of
their executives will read this review and take action. I can hope for
that change.
Plenty of different characters stroll through X-Men Volume 5. It is
almost like the goodbye season to the show was trying to bring in as
many people as possible. How and why Jean Grey returned was never
explained. I wonder if some of the episodes in X-Men Volume 5 are left
overs from previous years that were not aired. My advice is to pass on
X-Men Volume 5.
