Considering the pile of crap that infests CN in the present, this series really stood out during the time it released (I'm talking about a really long time ago) and was quite innovative in many ways. It was honestly very good. It was quite surprisingly extremely funny using its own unique style of humor. No it is no where nearly as good as the movie itself, which is quite strange, although the movie itself would be something very difficult to live up to and match using animation. It did sometimes almost border on adult themes like the movie but is mostly kids stuff. Very very entertaining for its time although I don't know how viable it would be today as I have'nt really watched it years?

Yeah this movie is quite underrated. At the same time, lets not fool ourselves by saying that this movie is not anti-Muslim or more specifically anti-arab. Whether it shows Muslim extremists as a minority of their religion or not, the end result is that Arabs get their asses kicked left right and center in this movie. I really can't get my brain to disassociate the name "Tariq Hussain" (trying saying that in an American accent lol) with "Terrorist" now. The terrorists are really depicted in their full sick potential.
The direction is good, the story and screenplay are good and the Denzel's performance truly kicks ass (you know whos). Tony Shaloub also gives a great performance but giving him Muslim connections is just a dumb and vain attempt to prove that this movie is not anti-Muslim. But do keep an open mind while watching this movie as it is filled with stereotypes.
