Storm hawks has everything, motorcycle planes, floating terras, humor and awesome character models & its a Canadian cartoon, at the time the show was as awesome as Clone Wars, hell i even bought some of the action figures doing the time.Is it great?, well if you where a kid in the early 2000s-mid 2000s-late 2000s well yes it is, at time i was like *wow that's so cool* yea i was 9 years old back in 2008.*Spoilers* Storm Hawks takes place on Atmos world with a thousand mountain top kingdoms, & the sky knights, their duty is to fight against the cyclonians.Overall great and still watchable to this day.
... View MoreOf the vast amount of growing children's TV shows, most of which are total crap (although the new Chop Socky Chooks is pretty entertaining), there's really nothing to watch anymore. But if you ever stumble upon a time when Storm Hawks is showing, prepare yourself.Storm Hawks sets itself in the vast world of Atmos, which is compromised of dozens of floating "continents" called Terras (Atmos = atmosphere, Terra = territory). Each Terra is much different from the others, and each episodes is usual set on another Terra. There's only been around one or two re-used Terras (Terra Neon, a massive amusement park), which brings a vast amount of variety among the 23 or so currently released episodes.I've seen every single episode of the show released thus far, and I must say I've never been so entertained by television.The show centers around the Storm Hawks squadron of Sky Knights, which was formerly defeated by the Cyclonian warrior Dark Ace. However, red spikey haired Aerrow comes to the rescue with his friends Junko, Finn, Piper, and his strange dog styled pet Radarr. Together, they form the new Storm Hawks squadron.Each episodes centers around the Storm Hawks traveling to a Terra (or another location, like the dreaded Black Gorge or home of the Murk Raiders). Usually, the Storm Hawks find a problem involving the Cyclonians or Murk Raiders or some other form of treachery. Using Aerrows supreme flying skills combined with Finn's shot, Piper's intelligence, Junko's strength, and Stork's comedic brilliance (and ability to fly the Condor, the Storm Hawk's massive ship); the Storm Hawks overcome whatever treachery they find.Every episodes is filled with fantastic action involving battles in the air on everyone's planes. You will be on the edge of your seat watching the epic battles unfold. Let's not forget the humor. This show doesn't use lame poop humor like Camp Lazlo or My Gym Partner's a Monkey, this show uses brilliant intelligent humor that's based around today's society. Stork, our emo paranoid friend, makes you laugh almost every time he speaks. Finn, commonplace idiot, brings out a few laughs.Every supporting character brings something new to the table, and every location is a different experience for the episodes. Oh, let's not forget the different experiences. Almost every episode is something new. For instance, one episodes involves Aerrow and Radarr trying to escape a Cyclonian prison. Mr. Moss, head of the prison, leads a hilarious but exciting chase after Aerrow and Radarr. It's pure brilliance.Overall, Storm Hawks is animated television at its best. If you watch any cartoons the rest of your life, watch this. If you buy a DVD set for any television show, get this. You will laugh, and you will be cheer. Storm Hawks, prepare for battle.
... View MoreI thought I was well past the age of watching these kinds of cartoons, but there's something about Storm Hawks that just isn't found in vast majority of kids shows these days. The unique animation probably has something to do with it, it reminds me of an improved version of the new Spider-Man cartoon (which failed). However, probably the biggest strength of the show has to be its cast of great original characters in this colorful and exciting world. None of this would work without good stories though, and from the couple of episodes I've seen so far, this show has great writing that reminds me of Beast Wars and Reboot in its prime. Surprisingly, I checked and a lot of the same people are involved! Hopefully the word spreads because this show is great!
... View MoreThe first time I saw the preview of this show, I had to see it. There I was, flipping through channels, when I suddenly stopped and stared at something that I've never seen beforea kids show that actually looked pretty good! The one element that intrigued me the most was the unique animation styleI've never seen anything like it before! When I finally got to watch it, I was very pleased and, from what I've seen and heard, many others were too! The humor is not just cheesy kids show humor (you know the type-filled with dumb puns and corny one-liners), it's actually funny. I found myself laughing hysterically at the obsessive paranoia of Stork-the lanky green man/cat/monkey thing! There's also fast action and slapstick comedy for the kids, as well as well-rounded characters and unique personalities for the critics to admire. The impressive array of vocal talent adds a sense that you got your times worth watching this show.In fact, the only thing that I can say about this show that may put critics in a snitch is the fact that some of the episode plots are rather petty. But come now, it's a kids show! Give them a break!
