Yes, for Sydneysiders, this flash-in-the-pan kids toy franchise was a spot-the-locale treat. Everything else was a puree of lazy, dumb plotting, pat comic book scripting and Neighbours-quality acting.
Five kids who have animal totems dress up in suits and fight evil. End of story. The success of the property didn't last in part because it was just kids in suits, and in part because it belonged in a cheap TV series and was never going to sustain a 90 minute movie with Sydney Tower badly superimposed into the hand of a giant monster.
