Van-pl's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Intruder Returns]

Dude...

'Twas very effective, i'm truly amazed, how did you shaped out all those dust effects, scars on every items and stuff. Gunfire animation was absolutely perfect, as great as movement of the pepole, which was so smooth and realistic that i actually belived it was a real's person shadow back there in the smoke.

Your perfectionism in all those tiny details and effectivness of a fight is both a great feature and a flaw. I belive that making dynamic movies in flash, authors do some incredible work, by making animation balanced. It's no point in drawing a simple 1-2 sec scene in one week or more, beacuse your beautiful backgrounds fade away faster, than you can even interpretate them.

Second big flaw was that whole action was predictable, and very pointless. You should make something that actually have any plot. Even movies from the Madness series have some silly background story. If not the graphic quality, then what could you sell with this movie? If I made the same movie with the same actions but without graphical fireworks and stuff, the score of my movie would oscillate somwhere around 3,4.

Overally: You made something, which only pretended to be something big, beacuse your movie in my feeling collapsed under it's own weight.

Well it leaves the vote: 7/10 4/5 Keep up the good work in the future :)
Powodzenia!

I wrote in my comments that my aim was to achieve great animation and graphics quality. It doesn't pretend to be something big, and it haven't collapsed.

Intreresting

I liked this movie, mainly for it's freakiness and animation. Also audio built up nice athmosphere, it was simply incredible.

I'm with you. Don't listen to the assholes, who give you zeros and such. I think artists should make movies containing every topic even if it's politically wrong. Many were throwing shit at you beacuse of the baby chopped in half by the elvis guy. I found it more artistic and controversial, overally your submission shouldn't be taken seriously.

and BTW, the most freaking thing i found here is that horse-headed-businessman.

4/5 8/10 good luck on making such cool movies in future :)

Catoblepas responds:

I still don't know what it is with those businessmen that freak people out. I myself find them fascinating.

Fucking great

or in your mother tounge : Wyjebane w kosmos. Myslalem ze jebne :P.

Nice, but you need to work up your style more, than just ass of the dragon. Nice for start, I'm looking foward to see your next movies :)

Neonik responds:

Dzieki :)

Thanks a lot! I think I will make series of this, and maybe change style as you are suggesting.

Thanks again!

Kinda true

But if you wish so, you could find hooks on every Kids-related stuff, that could be taken as abusive.

Nice work anywhay, but quite pathetic. There wasn't bigger flaws in graphics, since you have chosen to simplify the characters design. Voice acting was also decent.

Lookin' foward to see your next flashes, theyr'e nice, but would be better if less rude. 3/5

TXMStudios responds:

You make a valid point and we did think of other childhood cartoons we could tear apart, but besides He-Man, Winnie the Pooh stood out as one of the most devious. Pathetic is a pretty strong word, but we'll accept it. The next one shouldn't be as rude, more worship based.

[Flash For Noobs! Tutorial]

Niiiiiice

Graphics were incredible and overally design was interesting and eye keeping. But, to learn someone flash, you need to work on your skills, man. I'm not telling you, that you're the noob. I have the feeling you wanted to show off.

I'm personally in tuts too, but no longer anymore. I maybie don't make it as pretty as you, and i have spelling errors, but i have more of the stuff. (still i didn't finished it - 2 much laziness)

Nice try. I didn't learn anything from it, but still it was nice, and i enjoyed it. :)

3/5

The-Shadow-Master responds:

The only reason i made it look awesome is coz i'm a perfectionist (kinda) =D and so people wouldn't blam it at first sight. Fair enough, right?
By ur comment "more of the stuff", well umm... i doubt anyone could understand what ur referring to there...
But thanx for the comment and rating! =D

[Saint - Chapter 2]

Like whole anime series packed into one flash

Chara design, drwings, voices and other stuff was really incredible, but it looks you're doing preview to something. I feel like you want to acumulate power and unleash it with something great and non-retrospective. But i think you won't do this. You know... You proof your flash skills and make past-ago action, wich is boring a little. Make some real-time movie. You're a good story-teller, so make some thrilling action now.

You also shown too much of your story, and at end it became little lame. "Love" stuff? Kwl, but every1 saw this sooo many times.

Your work needs real thrilling stuff.

good luck :) 4/5

TheZebu responds:

Actually, this episode kinda is a whole series packed into a single flash. Saint is actually a spinoff of an earlier concept, which eventually grew into several storylines. This episode is to provide the background on how Blaine became the person he is today, and set the stage for the events to come. Next chapter won't be a narrative like the prelude- it will be the story in full acceleration. Thanks!
