IcarusJG's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[TV-Devil]

Great visuals

The visual work in here is obviously the end-product of a lot of time and effort. Very good.

The humor was ok, there were some parts where I chuckled (like when he pulled the rock off thd sword), but the ending was a bit weak.

Graphical excellence, cute and a bit funny

I have to say, the graphics and animation in this were superb, top notch. In fact, everything technical about this flash was excellent.

It was pretty cute at the beginning, kinda morbid at the end.

But I felt that it was starting to drag just a bit towards the end, but not too much.

Excellent overall.

1 for interactivity??? Didn't you click on those two buttons at the end!?!? Nah, just jostling you. Thanks for the review buddy... glad you liked it...

Excellent

This movie speaks a lot to me... kind of feels like the way things are going sometimes.
And I loved the robo-Republican Elephant :P

Graphics got a little twitchy in certain spots, but overall I thought this movie was very good.

[Halo: Funny Situations]

Graphics were good

I didn't really dig the humor though... the jokes and general humor seemed to be something I've seen in countless other places.

["Target Practice"]

wow

Another stain on humanity.

And what the hell are people doing giving constructive criticism?
Hello? He's dead.

tragic; really great flash

Now this is real quality if you ask me - exceptional art, style and sound.

The story was great... extremely tragic for the guy.
Very existential - the guy must have felt totally helpless, thats why he tried to drown his woes in the music. Had an inkling of courage towards the end, but not enough.

Loved it.

Just driving...

I liked some of the art that you had in the flash. Im guessing you spent a good deal of time on the cars.
However it seemed to be there were some graphical glitches in the flash... at all times there was empty white space above and below the main image... Normally I wouldn't bring that up, but you had the cars moving in that white space... you should have filled it in with scenary or detail. And there was one point in the film where the blue car seemed to rear-end the black car but nothing happened...

Music and sound effects were good enough

But the story was lacking... as I said, all it had was a couple people driving around in nice looking cars. I guess that's a story in itself, but I'm left wondering WHY? Was one guy chasing the other? Is one guy trying to kill the other? Or are they just simply racing? What's going on? These are things you should try to address.

Keep at it though.

Pretty good graphics, but no substance

The character design was simple, yet cute. I liked it, and its definitely a bit better than generic line art (used some shading). Keep it up and I'm positive you'll get much better in time.

But the actual content of the flash was just lacking. All that happened was a guy got kicked in the head...
And it took a long time for that to happen. Insult.... cry.... laugh..... kick..... hi...
You needed either more interaction between the characters or to speed up what you did have.

Music was nice, but I didn't hear any other sound effects, not even for the kick. In the end its up to you whether or not you want them - maybe a stylistic thing, but I would have liked some sound. Doesn't have to be loud or complex, just something simple.
