I'm a big Burn Notice fan, and I deem Bruce Campbell a god among men. This was tailor made for me, right?
The Fall of Sam Axe tells the origin story of our titular hero, his early antics and adventures in the deep jungles of Columbia.
It sets itself apart from the show well and doesn't really utilize the other cast much. It does however still feel like Burn Notice, what with the familiar beloved character, story development style and narration.
I was concerned whether it would work but as Campbell has proven time and time again he works just fine as a leading man. Combine that with a surprisingly great supporting cast including Pedro "Game of Thrones" Pascal and the roster is a solid one.
Maintaining that perfect balance of seriousness and comedic elements this spinoff movie is really enjoyable, heartfelt and a very worthy addition to the Burn Notice franchise.
Burn Notice with even more Bruce Campbell? Yes please!
The Good:
Great cast
That Burn Notice charm
Beautiful scenery
The Bad:
Nothing springs to mind
