Rating: Summary: Another victory for Troma Review: Isn't it ironic that the home video market almost killed Troma and now it is responsible for Troma's huge resurgence? Lloyd Kaufman is not taking it for granted. He is loading up these dvds with extras, not just trailers and triva, but this one comes with the rare animated Kabukiman cartoon! It also has great commentary by the star Rick Gianisi, and if that's not enough may I remind you that the movie is a cult classic because it is a hilarious homage to camp classics like the Adam West Batman series. It can't hurt that one of the female police officers wears a thin white tank top and painted on spandex jogging shorts either!!
Rating: Summary: One of Troma's worst Review: Sgt Kabukiman is the movie that should have started a whole franchise and become a raging success... if only Lloyd kaufman didn't do it. As it happens, he was the guy that came up with the idea and made this very poor film.I'm a big fan of Lloyd and Troma movies, and I had read Lloyd's book before seeing this film, so I got to read all about it before I saw it. In the book, he said Sgt kabukiman is the time when he couldn't decide which direction to go in. Whether to make it gory like The Toxic Avenger or make it a fun film suitable for the kids. He did the worst thing possible, he went half and half. The film is so lackluster in violence that any gore fan will quickly become bored, but at the same time, because there are some dodgy scenes, young children cannot view this movie. Apart from that fatal flaw, the film is just bad in every other aspect too. The best thing is the actor who plays Kabikiman, this guy deserves all the credit as he does a good performance, but everything else just makes the movie suffer. The sets are cheap, the costumes are cheap, the other actors are terrible, the story is incoherent & the continuity is even worse. Nothing seemes to make much sense. Another major let-down is the ending. Not only is it extremely predicable and uninspired, but the special effects are of far too low a quality even for a troma movie. All in all, give this one a miss, have a look at some of Troma's more recent films.
Rating: Summary: Oh great Kabukiman Review: Sgt. Kabukiman N.Y.P.D. is a touching story of a New York cop who is transformed into Kabukiman to rid the world of The Evil One. This is diffently high TROMA. The video I have says PG-13 but I think it is most likely a misprint. This is the second best Troma film made by the Troma founders. The best being Tromeo & Juilet. It's worth watching over & over. Enjoy!
Rating: Summary: kabuki! Review: The special effects aren't all that (lol), but come on, this is Troma. And this is one of the funniest, morst original movies I've EVER seen. The acting is pretty good (didn't bother me), and the story is just hilarious. Must see.
Rating: Summary: Kabukiman is my hero Review: This is equal to Troma's War which was a masterpiece and awesome. Sgt. Kabukiman is easily one of the funniest movie's I've ever seen. With Lethal Chopsticks, and fatal sushi you can never go wrong.

Rating: Summary: Oh DEAR LORD! HEEE HEEE! Review: This movie is unquestionably one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. The clown scene literally caused me to experience my first heart attack.(well maybe not, but I was laughing for 7 minutes straight) The killer chopsticks were brilliant, and the ancient prophecy was...well...hehehehehhe
Rating: Summary: Splatter? Moure like a comedy. Review: This troma montion picture is realy patetic! If you realy like stupid comedy movies wich is nearly two hours, you will love it. But if you dont have seen "sgt kabukiman N.Y.P.D" and have thought about it as an very bloody and gorey movie (Wich i first thougth) you will be sorry. But if you are a big troma fan, se it anyway cause it is not so bad.

Rating: Summary: I can't wait for the sequel. Review: Troma is going to spoof themselves and make a more outrageous spoof on their own film. It will be called Bukkakeman instead of Kabukiman. It will be hilarious.
