| User ReviewNorman Wbrillaint, like the other 9, absolutely amazing!! would recommend every1 2 watch the series!!! |
| User ReviewRoy CThe fucking thing ends on a cliffhanger...and I can't wait for the next one. |
| User ReviewBryan GIt's nice to see Charles Band put some real money into one of his productions since Full Moon hasn't made a really good film since 1995. Typically the acting is pretty weak as well as the plot but the technical aspect is a vast improvement over such misfires like Evil Bong 2 and Skull Heads making it much easier to stomach. Too bad the ending comes to an abrupt halt or I probably would have liked it more. |
| User ReviewAllan CAndre Toulan's sentient and deadly puppets help a young man fight a German/Japanese conspiracy that's unfolding in WWII San Francisco Chinatown. I really liked the look of this film with the period Chinatown setting. Like most Puppet Master films, there isn't a huge budget, but the neon lit Chinatown looks really cool, even if that may not have been all that historically accurate. Directed by series regular David DeCoteau, I think DeCoteau get's a lot of the credit for this film's slick look. The film is also greatly helped by featuring the little puppets a great dead, rather than spending too much time on the people, because really, we just want to see the little deadly puppets in action. Probably the best entry in the series since number three. |
| User ReviewTim SActually not bad, despite some of the puppets looking really bad. Tunneler and Leech Woman especially look...just off. This takes place directly after Toulon killed himself in the very original film. It was good to once again see that original puppet we only saw at the very beginning of the original. I did like the new puppet Ninja! |

| User ReviewJonny BFirstly, let me just mention that Jenna Gallaher is a goddess. Secondly, the screenwriter of this film needs a history lesson - the film is set in 1939 during WW11 yet the US did not enter the war until 1941. Putting historical inaccuracies aside, we get more than we've come to expect from recent Full Moon movies or the 'Puppet Master' franchise in general. Sure the title of this film is hilariously awful and some of the acting is atrocious but the production value is high for a Full Moon movie, meaning it's well photographed (some of the panning is shaky and there's not enough camera movement) for the most part and the set designs are decent. As for the infamous puppets, they don't do much and when they do the gore is nothing to celebrate. Myriad flaws and all 'Puppet Master: Axis of Evil' is entertaining and one of the better entries in the series. |
| User ReviewMark DI liked it. Very naive but maintains the essence of the originals. Will always be drawn to this series. |
| User ReviewDave RI love the Puppet Master movies myself, Blade is awesome, they all are in fact, and watching their somewhat jerky animation styles is just fun. Show me some puppets killing folks and I almost don't care what the story about. As far as Axis Of Evil goes, well let's just say I'm glad I don't care about the story. It was a fun movie to watch, for sure, but the horrible acting from the Naxi's and Japanese geisha who are, in this film, attempting to both capture the puppets and their secret to living, and also blow up a building for the sake of World War II, made it a tad too silly at times. You can just watch the geisha trying her hardest to put up this tough exterior and be serious yet all the while dressed in a dress and white makeup, it just doesn't fly. However, you almost expect some of that in any good B movie, so it's not out of the ordinary and doesn't detract from the puppets. As the story continues, a fellow with polio, who because of his disease is not able to go to the war himself, happens to be a good carpenter and finds the puppets and their secret, so they set out to aid the war on the homefront and destroy the enemies. The story practically reveals itself as it's going on, no twists or surprises, but all in all, a good cheesy flick. |
