Kalar's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Jake's ToI Sneak Peak]

Lacking and yet promising.

The Good
+Fantastic artwork! The still imagery was pretty damned good.

The Bad:
-Intro was very sloppy.
-"Sneak Peaks" don't really have any merit for existing. The "ending" wasn't stellar and didn't make a lot of sense.
-Voice acting! The sound quality itself wasn't -bad-, but could use work.

Final Words: I see some promise here for a good, certifiably insane flash, but in it's present state this isn't ejoyable.

Verdict: 2/5

LordJaja responds:

-Thanks!

-I'm going to figure out a better one later

-my friends just wanted to see what I have been working on lately.

-I'll do my best to fix that

Thanks for the advice!

[jesususej]

Trippy.

The Good:
+Sweet visuals
+Weird/Experimental concept

The Bad:
-Short, somewhat pointless flash.

Verdict: 3/5

TheBoogley responds:

I disagree, I thought it was very pointy. :)

[LL-Animal Fun!]

Great!

The Good:
+Has a solid plot
+Great characterization
+Subtitles! I can't stand lock/clock movies without subtitles since you can't understand what they are saying.
+Ending was unexpected and sudden

The Bad:
-Nothing! Keep up the great work.

Verdict: 5/5

Courgy responds:

Thanks a bunch dude!
I hope I can push myself to produce some more of this shit!
Keep an eye out for it!

Cheers!

[COD: Random Warfare]

Hilarious at parts.

The Good:
+Jill Sandwich into was amusing.
+There can't be anything gayer than this (followed by the Army of Two bit) got me laughing hard.
+The Mexican Army was hilarious (this, coming from a Mexican)

The Bad:
-Voice acting was alright, could have been better.
-The "this is so gay" theme got old fast.
-"Hoo-Ah! Alright, cut the chatter. Hoo-Ah! Alright, cut the chatter. Hoo-Ah!" We got the fuckin point man!
-Overall, had a lot of filler that just wasn't that funny.

Verdict: 4/5

KeithSandwich responds:

I'm suprised (but grateful) that you voted so high given some of the negatives you have listed. In my defense, if you have played MW2, the "cut the chatter" and the "Hoo-ah" stuff is not really an exaggeration on my part. They seriously say that every chance they get and that was used as the foundation of the parody.

[Loops turn into squares]

Trippy

The Good:
+Music was great.
+I love the style.

The Bad:
-Loop gets old.

Verdict: 3/5

TreasurePlanet responds:

a loop is bound to get old ^^
but that's fine.
thanks for the 3.

[One Guy, One Stick]

Entertaining piece.

The Good:
+Great work on the style.
+The audio quality was decent.

The Bad:
-Could have been more funny, it didn't evoke much more than a smirk from me.

Final Words: Talent has been shown, the story was decent (more plot than 95% of newgrounds movies) but ultimately could have been better.

Verdict: 3/5

CurtisCarey responds:

The plot? did you actually watch the short. There isn't a plot, it's an actual thing that happened to me. I didn't sit down and write the story of a shit shoveling animation supervisor. That would just be gross.

But thanks for the feedback , I checked out your videos. You choose some good audio.

[Family Farm]

Decent

Pros:
+Great style and artistry.
+You captured most of the voices quite well (were they sound clips or imitations?)

Cons:
-Quagmire sounded way off.
-Short, no plot, completely random, etc.

Verdict: 3/5

AlmightyHans responds:

they were imitations

[Happy birthday flash]

Uhh. Okay...?

Pros:
+Decent artwork
+Seems promising

Cons:
-It's a birthday flash, yet it has absolutely NOTHING themed as such until it says "Happy Birthday".
-Rather dull flash to be honest.

Final Words: You have some potential as an artist, but this doesn't really belong here.

Verdict: 1/5

2tailedknight responds:

here as in newgrounds?

a very fair review and thank you for honesty.
it is dull but to the person i made it for the song represents who they are as an individual. BUT not to say i am not taking in to account in what you are saying. so i can promise you that future flashes i will try to attempt a "meaning"

thank you for your review

[flying circle clock]

Pretty cool.

Nifty little clock, voted for protection but I'm not sure if it'll make it!

Pros:
+The intro animation is interesting
+The clock itself reading the time off of your computer is a nice touch

Cons:
-None. But it is a little dull, just being a clock.

Verdict: 3/5

stevo1699 responds:

Thanks for the review. This is one of the first ones I have done, there getting better

[The New Video Game]

Eh, it's alright.

The Good:
+Nice animation
+Unique presentation
+Somewhat entertaining

The Bad:
-Short. Very, very short.
-What's up with the huge "Thanks" list for such a short piece that couldn't have taken more than a couple hours?

Verdict: 3/5

itsChrisLife responds:

Thanks for the opinion...it was short because it was a NG test :D
