For a girl my age (take note of the girl word and my age is way beyond 20), I still enjoy Ben 10 since he was a kid to becoming a teen (and I like it especially when he became a teen). The story of Ben Tennyson, Gwen, Kevin and Grandpa Max continues as they are brought to life in Ben 10: Alien Swarm.
It’s a whole new adventure with the Plumbers, the secret organization that watch over alien activities (with all their locators much better than all the phone number reverse stuff). Bringing it to life actually started with the heroes being kids in Ben 10: Race Against time. This time around, in Ben 10: Alien Swarm, Ben and the rest of the gang are teens who deal with solving the mystery behind a swarm of aliens infecting the human populace—placing them under their control.

The film starts with the green Challenger racing to meet illegal Alien technology dealers who happened to be just a set up by Elena Validus. Character background check: Elena was a childhood acquaintance of Ben and a daughter of a former Plumber who was removed due to taking with him alien technology without authority. In this event they were dealt by a swarm of alien bees commanded by an unknown person.

After temporarily defeating the alien bees, Ben and the rest of the gang learned of Elena’s troubles (her dad had mysteriously disappeared). In addition to this was information of an alien threat as what her father once warned the Plumbers. Even with the rest of the team, especially his grandfather, distrusting Elena’s story, Ben still pushed through to help her go for an instant people search in pursuit of her lost father until the whole story was proved to be correct….

Last December 1, Ben 10: Alien Swarm was released in Blue Ray. Filling in the shoes of our heroes are Ryan Kelley, Nathan Keyes and Alyssa Diaz; Directed by Alex winter, this Nick-treat is a good gift to kids, especially during the holiday season.
