What to Know

Critics Consensus

Burn Notice: The Fall of Sam Axe is a nifty showcase for the roguish charisma of Bruce Campbell, even if it feels more like an extended television episode rather than a feature film.

Campbell's got the charisma and self-deprecating sense of humor to carry a whole film. We know that. But the Sam presented here isn't nearly as much fun as Campbell gets to be on the show. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico HollywoodChicago.com 11/16/2018

It's not bad, but not particularly the best outing for anyone involved. Go to Full Review John Stanley San Francisco Chronicle 11/16/2018
3/4
Campbell can be heroic and self-effacing in the same scene, and his followers will delight in the mixture of blazing action and comedic romp. Go to Full Review Blair Howell Deseret News (Salt Lake City) 11/16/2018
Has all its bases covered for a successful comedy: a witty script (from the series creator Matt Nix), expert direction (by the series star Jeffrey Donovan) and a flawed but fun character, deftly portrayed by Campbell. Go to Full Review Merrill Barr Film School Rejects 11/16/2018
One of those few TV movies that totally gets the audience it's playing to. If you love Burn Notice, then Sam's fall from the ranks of military, is probably exactly what you were hoping for. Go to Full Review Rob Frappier Screen Rant 03/06/2018
Truthfully, I wasn't blown away by Burn Notice: The Fall of Sam Axe, but I did enjoy the movie for what it was worth. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

waleed a 02/15/2019 eh. couldn't keep my interest (about 2 viewings) See more 07/19/2016 Enjoyable film but I struggled to follow it as I just couldn't keep track of what was going on. See more 10/13/2015 I am a big fan of the Burn Notice series and i really enjoyed this movie! I love the storyline on going to Sam Axes past before he was drinking Mohito's in Miami with a Hawaiian shirt. Bruce Campbell does a great job bringing action and comedy to the film. And best of all, the film was directed by Jeffrey Donovan (Michael Westen) and he does a great job of it. See more 07/23/2015 I LOVE anything, Michael or Sam!!! See more 05/21/2015 Really bad, but its a TV movie, so don't expect all that. See more 04/04/2015 this show and anything related to it is pure game See more Read all reviews
