“Mech Cadets” Review
Tags:Television, Television Posters, Television Reviews
A delightful mix of Iron Giant, Starship Troopers, and Pacific Rim, I fully enjoyed the comic series and enjoyed this adaptation just as much. The scope is slightly scaled down, but it’s all the better for that, with a clearer focus on the singular character and the limited world view that he possesses. We get hints of the wider world, but only in ways that don’t strain the already obviously strained budget. Of special note is the limited frame rate that the series runs in, something much less then the standard 24 fps that we’re all accustomed to, and more like what “The Dragon Prince” looks like, another high concept Netflix series that I fell in love with.
There’s already a sequel comic series being released right now, so perhaps we’ll have more Mech Cadets to watch in the future.
