Bakugan: Battle Brawlers(2007) is a cartoon adaptation of the popular strategy game created by Sega Toys and Spin Master. Dan Kuso and his five on-line friends started playing Bakugan when game cards inexplicably fell from the sky. Using combinations of cards and special marbles that turn into monsters, they fight duels and win points. Dan loudly proclaims he's going to become the all-time champion. He and his friends learn that Bakugan monsters have lives in the dimension of Vestroia. But the mysterious gamer Masquerade is destroying the monsters he defeats by sending them to the Doom Dimension. Battle Brawlers plays like a cross between Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokémon. With his spikey hair, fingerless gloves and goggles, Dan looks like numerous other shonen (boys) anime heros; he's nicer than Yugi, but he lacks Ash's good heart. Battle Brawlers will appeal primarily to fans of the original game. (Unrated, suitable for ages: 8 and older: cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon

My son received Volume One for Christmas and loved the video. He has played them over and over again. We are currently awaiting the release of Volume Three. Any Bakugan player will enjoy this video.

Very entertaining.

Bakugan movies 1 & 2 keep my grandson entertained. He enjoys watching the DVD's and seems to learn a great deal about Bakugans. This is his newest interest, which grandma does not understand.

Less annoying than Pokemon

My 4 year old daughter has not stopped watching it, but I bought it for my 7 year son! The theme song is very catchy.
