THE PLOT:

ZEDD'S OPINION:

What's with the clip movie? It's bad enough when long running TV shows do a cheesy clip show but they really expect people to buy a movie that is 90 % stock footage? What the hell was Charles Band thinking? This is awful and deserves a mere 1 STAR

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

I agree and disagree at the same time. The film quality of the only original footage was awful, the two new characters are awful and worst still, there was no new Puppets. So I agree that this is the worst Puppet Master ever but I disagree with giving it one star, that's one too many. THE LUMP OF COAL!

ON THE POSITIVE SIDE (+ HITS):

+ CAST (The cast what little they were did the best they could with what they had to work with.)

ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):

- STORY (A story that is over 90% stock footage isn't worth your money unless they create a box set of all the movies.)
- STOCK FOOTAGE (That is barely expectable in a long running TV show, but not for something they except us to buy.)
- PICTURE QUALITY (The new footage picture quality was poor.)
- NO NEW PUPPETS (Every movie introduced a new puppet, why did they go cheap this go round?)
- WHY CHARLES WHY? (I expect this from other directors, but no you!)

...AND FINALLY...

- FAN BASED (If you're not a fan of the first seven movies, then you don't want to see this one. Considering it's nothing but the first seven movies.)
