The animated adventure series Ben 10: Alien Force continues to impress with its blend of thoughtful science fiction and kid-friendly action, as evidenced by the four season-ending episodes included in this set. In each of the episodes in Volume 3–and indeed, throughout the series itself–characters and the actions they commit are rarely portrayed in simple terms of good and evil; as with the classic Marvel Comics titles of the ’60s and ’70s, thoughtfulness and responsible actions are just as valuable to saving the day as might and force. Hence such stories as the season closer, “X=Ben+2,” where Ben’s use of his newest extraterrestrial ally, the reality-bending Alien X, leads to a (literally) internal debate between its dueling personalities. Surface perceptions are also misleading in “Be-Knighted,” in which the dragon quarry of a troupe of Forever Knights is less of a fearsome monster than described; and in “Plumber’s Helper,” with its menacing aliens who turn out to be concerned parents. It’s this degree of solid storytelling, when combined with the bracing action and visuals of the animation, which makes Ben 10: Alien Force one of the most consistently enjoyable sci-fi series for kids and adults to enjoy together. One does wish that the episodes were presented in a more consistent format–one entire season rather than batches of four or more–and with stronger supplemental features than the lightweight “Villains Database” that’s compiled on this disc. –Paul Gaita

“It may be our planet, but itÂ’s their war!” The deadliest creatures from the scariest sci-fi movies ever made face off for the first time on film. The incredible adventure begins when the discovery of an ancient pyramid buried in Antarctica sends a team of scientists and adventurers to the frozen continent. There, they make an even more terrifying discovery: two alien races engaged in the ultimate battle. Whoever wins…we lose.Amazon.com
In delivering PG-13-rated excitement, Alien vs. Predator is an acceptably average science-fiction action thriller with some noteworthy highlights, even if it squanders its opportunity to intelligently combine two popular and R-rated franchises. Rabid fans can justifiably ask “Is that all there is?” after a decade of development hell and eager anticipation, but we’re compensated by reasonably logical connections to the Alien legacy and the still-kicking Predator franchise (which hinted at AVP rivalry at the end of Predator 2); some cleverly claustrophobic sets, tense atmosphere and impressive digital effects; and a climactic AVP smackdown that’s not half bad. This disposable junk should’ve been better, but nobody who’s seen Mortal Kombat or Resident Evil should be surprised by writer-director Paul W.S. Anderson’s lack of imagination. As a brisk, 90-minute exercise in generic thrills, however, Anderson’s work is occasionally impressive… right up to his shameless opening for yet another sequel. –Jeff Shannon

As clues to the mystery of the alien invaders lead them from a top-secret government research base to a huge network of caves hidden under the town, our love-struck heroes join the rest of the gang in a race to crack a case that re-defines the term “far out!”Amazon.com
A lot has changed since the original ’70s-era gang of Scooby-Doo fans gave way to today’s followers of the hipster mystery cartoon series. For one, nowadays kids don’t have to wait around for the half-hour Saturday morning show- -they can pick up a copy of Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders. All the familiar elements are here; even the groovy green Mystery Machine makes a comeback, but it isn’t as reliable as it used to be. At the outset of Alien Invaders, it breaks down, leaving the crime-solving crew stranded in a creepy desert town overrun by aliens. From there, the plot unwinds faster than Scooby can down a box of his namesake snacks. A band of swollen-headed purple and green space guys–Zoinks–send the terrified teens scrambling for cover, but it’s not long before the quick-witted gang figures out that there’s a team of bad guys behind the bug-eyed masks. That’s not to say, though, that real-life aliens aren’t also roaming the streets, as Shag and Scoob (who hook up in an unprecedented Scooby-Doo romance with a peace sign-wearing babe and her equally hip dog) discover in the course of clearing out of the phony aliens’ hair-raising path. To longtime viewers, the love angle seems unsettling; it steals from the tightness of the mystery team. Still, with so much creepy fun to get caught up in, it’s a minor complaint. Scott Innes, the modern-day voice of both Shaggy and Scooby, nails both parts, and Jennifer Love Hewitt fans also will want to tune in–she sings the Scooby theme song. –Tammy La Gorce
