An over the top,trippy cartoon
This show forms part of Animation Domination,a late night series of cartoons that are often enough bizarre.This is probably the most bizarre of them.The show is about a real life music producer from Jamaica named Major Lazer.Apparently,he is in the future,where various villains rule the world.It's up to him (and several supporting characters) to defeat them.Yeah...you could say Major Lazer in the show is a over the top rendition of him,where he is a silent,confident badass with amazing combat skills.The plots are very simple and over the top,with some attempts at character building and several action sequences.It is hard to truly evaluate if the writing in the show is either "so bad it's good" or just bad.You'll notice off the bat how the writing is very flawed in many aspects,but often enough,this isn't really a big problems.It almost looks like it's trying to play tribute to cheesy 80's action cartoons.Yeah...your appeal to the show depends on your tolerance to intentional badness and cheesy writing.The animation and artstyle is great.I'm really into trippy and colorful imagery,so it appeals to me.Even if you're not too into druggy imaginery,the actual animation looks pretty good,so it deserves some credit.Considering Major Lazer is a music producer,music is given some considerable attention through the show.I'm not an avid Major Lazer fanatic,but for the most part,the music sounds nice.Once again,it might not appeal to everyone.The voice acting...is much like the show's writing.If you noticed,the whole show is based on your appeal and tolerance for the way it is.For me...it is a decent cartoon.A 7 out of 10.Your opinion could be very different...and understandably so.
score 7/10
