“Robert The Doll (2015) and Curse Of Robert The Doll (2016) were awful films, truly appalling poorly made messes.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFor this reason I was stunned they made anymore, and even more stunned when I realised that this one isnu0026#39;t actually bad.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Toymaker otherwise known as Robert u0026amp; The Toymaker is a huge improvement. For a start the cast are great, the opening scene especially was extremely good and filled with tension. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNext the movie takes a new direction and isnu0026#39;t another mindless killer doll movie, this origin story is less action and more substance.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere is still plenty of stupidity on display, some ropey sfx, unanswered questions and some clear influence from the Puppet Master franchise but itu0026#39;s a step up from the previous films regardless.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;d not say this is a good film and Iu0026#39;d recommend it to nobody, what I will say however is the creators are at least heading in the right direction which makes me hope the 4th part will be entertaining.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Good:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSome decent performancesu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGreat openingu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Bad:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eToymakers makeup effects are terribleu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDoesnu0026#39;t actually have much of a storyu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThings I Learnt From This Movie:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDuring World War 2 Germans spoke English in their home countryu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDespite having no joints in a dolls fingers they can still pick things up”
