HUNTIK: SECRETS AND SEEKERS is fun to watch... if you don't ask too many questions. The action sequences are exciting, the Titans are fearsome, the story is interesting, and the animation is lush and beautiful. There are plenty of mysteries -- about the amulets, the long-running conflict between the Seekers, and the Titans -- that Lok is eager to solve, and viewers will enjoy going along for the ride.
That said, a few parts of the show don't stand up to scrutiny (OK, maybe more than a few). For example: The amulet has been stashed in Lok's room for years, and the Organization shows up looking for it just seconds after he discovers it? And one of his classmates just happens to be another Seeker? Not so plausible, but so what? Few kids will notice these discrepancies because they'll be too busy enjoying the rest of the show -- and maybe clamoring for some of the related merchandise.
TALK TO YOUR KIDS ABOUT ...
Families can talk about how the Seekers use the Titans. They summon the Titans to do their bidding, but these supernatural beings don't seem to know or care whether they're being asked to do good or evil. Do you think the Titans are good or evil? Or are they simply powerful tools that must obey the commands of their masters?
How does this series compare to other shows based on/tied in to
trading card games? Do you think the show's primary goal is to
entertain or to get kids to buy these cards and/or other products?"
This is what came out
