Axel Falcon

Sometimes we all just want to forget serious drama and complicated plot lines and have some fun.

Axel Falcon is just pure undiluted fun.

Forget the production values. Which are for something with a tiny budget of just £4000 are actually pretty impressive, especially some of the make up and special effects.

Solid acting and some baddies reminiscent of 1980s video game Double Dragon.

Here we have a comic book style drama, a hard nosed cop out on the rough streets fighting back against the baddies, it's a familiar concept but one we all love.

It took me back to reading comics as a schoolboy, I loved those action packed stories and Axel Falcon does a similar thing. There are also some very creative robot villians which took me back to something else I loved - 1980s Doctor Who.

Here is a film that doesn't take itself too seriously and in turn you don't need to take it too seriously, it's simply a blast and we cheer on Axel Falcon on his quest for justice. There is enough to satisfy the gore hounds too.

The perfect film for a relaxed night in with a Chinese and a few beers when you just want some fun escapism and entertainment.

Congrats to all involved.
