Review of Zenon: Z3

Zenon: Z3 (2004 TV Movie)
Not that bad...
14 June 2004
After reading some other reviews about this movie I thought I would contribute a little of my own to hopefully give it a little more respect as it should be entitled to. It's not all that bad of a movie assuming you keep a few factors in mind while watching it... although, it would have been much better if they would have been able to get the same actor who played Proto Zoa from the firs two movies to reprise his role in this 3rd addition to the series.

Anyway, if you watch it in terms of it being a "game" it's a fun movie to watch and enjoy. The way Disney Channel premiered it and aired it for the 3rd time the next night were probably the only good showings of it they will do. Just airing it as a plain movie won't be all that special or much fun in other words. If you saw the premier than you knew that this movie comes with a fun twist -- it has 50 hidden "Z's" scattered throughout the movie in which as you watch it you can try and locate them yourself. Some of them are quite difficult to see while many of them are extremely easy (true). So, if you were clever enough to record both the original premier and the Saturday night encore of it you've got the best 2 showings of the movie ever and 2 versions of the movie that you would be able to watch again and again if you feel like watching a movie just for pure fun and even to make a game out of it!

If Disney does do yet another Zenon movie (Zenon 4) hopefully they will learn from this last 2 movies and make sure that they at least get ALL the original cast members and come up with a decent script for a MOVIE and just a script for an hour long TV show (which is probably all that Zenon Z3 is without the commercials... unfortunately).
