Ben 10: Race Against Time

Ben 10 Race Against Time is a 2007 Live Action Adaptation movie for the Ben 10 franchise and the first movie in the series overall.

The movie is set at the end of Ben's summer vacation in which Grandpa Max, Gwen and he are returning home to Bellwood. Naturally Ben's not looking forward to returning to school and his boring old life. But that soon becomes the least of his worries when a mysterious figure named Eon comes looking for him and the Omnitrix. As things progress, secrets are revealed and naturally the fate of the world is at stake.

Notable for starring Lee Majors, Robert Picardo and Aloma Wright among others.

This film has the following tropes:
