Summary: ReBoot lives on ! ! ! ! !
Review: ReBoot is probably one of the best pioneering computer CGI shows ever made. Season four was very edgy with its content as was Season three, but pushing the envelope is what makes a show better.

Four stars you wonder? I think the DVD could have been better. An interview or special feature with the actors / actresses as they worked on ReBoot. Now that would have been quality. Now Mainframe (the company that is) needs to finish off where "My Two Bobs" ends. We have to see what happens at the end of the hunt. Will Megabyte actually win?? We'll just have to wait...

Summary: Great value, but not as good as seasons 1 - 3
Review: The double sided DVD has the two feature length ReBoot movies which made up season four of the series. "Daemon Rising" and "My Two Bobs" are, in turn, a good action flick (guest starring hexadecimal and - of course - daemon) and a comedy/romance/action flick (guest starring megabyte/megaframe). Both are widescreen (which is very cool) and the CGI animation is better than ever. But...

Where Seasons 1 and 2 were feet finding missions, and Season 3 was a wonderful parody session (of games and movies) Season 4 just doesn't have "legs" in these areas --- a take off of Austin Powers, a take off of Indiana Jones?? That the games are pushed way into the background is a sign that I think even the creators knew they'd ran out of steam on these topics.

For fans, the season is great in that you get dropped right into the action --- but if you are new to the show, you'll be somewhat lost. As a fan myself, this isn't a problem, but it may be if you are new to the show.

One sad aspect: this is the last series of the show, but it ends on a significant cliffhanger (not quite Twin Peaks style, but getting up there).

Technically, the sound and picture are great - no issues there at all.

Summary: BEST SHOW EVER!!!!!!
Review: There is an audio problem with the dvds, but i have recieved official word form Anchor Bay saying a new batch of correct dvd's will be arriving in the middle of june. This problem is being fixed. I still give this dvd a five simply because the show is so inivative and unique. The quality of the picture and the sound are supurb, the only audio problem is with the voices which are lower than they should be. But it really is'nt all that noticable and as this problem is being fixed i strongly recommened this dvd! I really hope Anchor Bay release the rest of the series on dvd!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great ReBoot, but BEWARE OF AUDIO PROBLEM!
Review: These segments were wonderful. There was drama, action, humor, and all of the excellent ReBoot moments a fan could hope for. The only negative is that the series has ended on a cliffhanger with no clear resolution.

Further note...I just received my copy of this DVD in the mail this last week, and the audio problem is still there. All of the voices are much deeper, and they appear to fluctuate during the playback. BEWARE OF THIS TECHNICAL PROBLEM.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE Best ReBoot EVER!
Review: This is the best animation I've seen from Mainframe Entertainment. The story is fantastic, the art is beautiful (Daemon's Lair is absolute eye-candy) and as usual the parodies are hysterical. If you love ReBoot this is a definite must-have. If you've never seen ReBoot you may not understand some things, but you can still enjoy it. I recommend buying the entire third season (Volume 3, No. 1-4) and watching it before you see this DVD. The third season is just as good as this season and is definitely worth buying.

As for the sound issues that some people have mentioned, I just bought this DVD from Amazon and did not notice any sound problems. All of the character's voices sounded just like they did on television. It looks as if the manufacturer has fixed the sound problem.
