Review of Puppet Master: The Legacy (2003) by Chris S — 19 Mar 2005

[font=Courier New]Okay, so it isn?t fair to really review this movie since it really isn?t a movie at all. It?s merely a collection of the better scenes of the cult classic movie series [i]The Puppet Master[/i]. The series is basically a hit and miss, but mostly miss, movies that have become an important part to many people?s lives.

After watching this, I?ve realized that my favorite film in the series, [i]Puppet Master 3[/i] seems to be the only good one. There are a lot of plot holes in each film, and each gets worse as the series movies along. It doesn?t even seem like the makers of each film cared about the previous films.

Story lines kept getting changed, and characters kept getting twisted around. The series is really clunky if you really think about it. But those little puppet bastards are still cool in my book, and I would watch almost any of these movies if they were on television.

The only reason you should watch this film is if you can?t find the original films on video to either rent or buy. This film mixes a bad story about an assassination plot with the life story of Toulon, the Puppet Master. It?s kind of fun to watch the makers of this film try to piece the messed up series into one logical storyline.

The end result is entertaining enough, but not enough to be a good movie. It was fun to revisit with this tiny terrors, and may watch the movie again some day. But I don?t think that day will be any time soon. [/font].
