The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Rio Hayward
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Billie Morin
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

"Axe Cop" is a super-hero cop who has magical powers and adores chopping the heads off baddies. He has no other life--he just lives to kill thousands and thousands of evil doers by lopping off their heads.Yes, "Axe Cop" is a show made by both a semi-responsible adult AND a 5 year-old! While this might sound stupid, and it is, the child-like characters and dialog make it a lot of fun. So, instead of an intelligent and well thought-out hero and baddies, they are insanely dumb--like the sort of things a 5 year-old boy might think of when he's playing (or on LSD). And, the dialog is equally silly--just like you'd hear from a little kid as well. For example, in one episode Axe Cop says that all girls are stupid--not a sexist comment but more like the sort of thing almost all little boys would say. The overall effect is very random, silly and occasionally very hilarious. Well worth seeing and enjoyable for all ages provided you have a high tolerance for weirdness--which I hope you do.

Axe Cop is incredible funny show that parody all the Super-Hero cartoons and the Pulp Fiction genre.Alomst every second there is some cops/science-fiction Cliché that turns in unexpected way to crazy direction. the creators mock about almost any sub-genre of Geek Culture, including Anime, Super-heroes comics/ TV shows, Procedurals shows, Detective novels, Western movies, Horror movies, Science-fiction, Fantasy, and much more. Must-See show for every Geek!and yes, it's childish, and the humor is often silly and immature, but in cool, funny and original way. in these days when most TV shows are the same (procedurals/soaps), it's refreshing to see an original show on a broadcast TV channel.

If I watched this show with absolutely no idea of it's premise, I would have thought this show is utter rubbish; I can understand how some of these reviews can be so scathing.So if you haven't yet seen Axe Cop and are thinking of giving it a go, there's one thing you must know: The synopsis and story lines of the show were conceived by a 5 year old.Once you know this fact, the craziness and lack of explanation for story development makes sense, and makes it so much more enjoyable. Characters will randomly develop new powers, superheroes will travel to different planets in monster trucks and on the backs of dinosaurs, and people's heads and limbs will be cut off with no clear-cut reason as to why.But that is how the mind of a kid works; anything that they think is exciting, dangerous or cool will get a mention in the story. If they do need to justify a point to close a storyline, it is the work of magic, or secret powers, or it's from another planet. Don't expect stories to make sense, but it's not supposed to; it's the craziness of the situation that makes the show so great to watch.It's not for everyone, but if you're a kid at heart, give it a go! You'll think this is fantastic.Plus some great voice cameos.

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.
