Dotsthavesp I wanted to but couldn't!
Pluskylang Great Film overall
BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
joelhaigh-927-925987 this is the sort of show hipsters watch. they watch it so they can say its awesome. so they can tell you, "you just don't "get it" "there's nothing to get. and there's a reason we don't have more 5 year olds writing for the media.....i do however, take this back if its a show for kids.... and if the dude that writes it, reads this, i'd tell him not to stop writing comics because its brilliant that he's doing it at all at such young age and that he clearly has massive potential to write epic stories in the future, but this is metaphorically raw meat, thats no where near the quality ready for human consumption.
Steve Mailman It's a little hard to appreciate this show unless you understand where it''s coming from. The show is based off of the comics created by 28 year old Ethan Nicolle who does all of the illustrations and written by his 5 year old brother Malachai Nicolle. Personally I love the comics, and I think the premise of the show is a solid idea, and I believe it can be fun for all ages. It's definitely a different perspective of writing and it's meant to be over the top and ridiculous.The previews look promising, I had a few chuckles and it definitely seems true to what the comics are all about. I personally am enthused to see this become a TV show and can't wait to see how it turns out.
diggus doggus A Great Show!Unfortunately some people won't get it; A shot explanation is that it's meant to be confusing, over the top and nonsensical. The madness of the show isn't just the protagonist, Axe Cop, being so called because he has an axe, it's that it's totally feasible for these characters to "take a dinosaur" instead of "take a taxi", and more so when the destination is another planet, not just "down the block".Frankly i've had enough of characterisation always trying to be the "more cool than the guy before, with extra shoulder spikes", ad i find refreshing the positively childish attitude with which the show is scripted.So i'm totally cool with Axe Cop's partner being "Flute Cop", and i'm thankful that it's this writing team that did this show, because if someone else with your run-of-the-mill writing talent would have done this show, it would have been Axe Cop and Shotgun Cop, or Axe Cop and Fire Girl, or Axe Cop and Axe Spy, and so on and so on.Great show - but Bob's Burgers is still better.My vote : 8/10 - for those who "get it".
PhDiesel This show is a fantastic harbinger for future interaction between the internet and television. I've followed the Axe Cop web comic for years and to see it brought to life by Nick Offerman, Patton Oswalt and Johnathan Banks is pretty much wish fulfillment. If the plot seems childish to you, that's because it was written by an 8 year old, Malachai Nicolle. His older brother brought Malachai's stories to life and the animation style really syncs up well with the illustration style of Ethan's comic. If you can't handle the pure, unbridled madcap awesome that is Axe Cop, you may have lost the childish part of your soul. I, for one, am ecstatic that this show has made it to network TV and I pray that it goes well enough to prompt other networks or FOX to consider animating more web comics. Could we see Nathan Fillion voicing Dr. McNinja someday? We can only hope.
