AloneInTheDark's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[-TheTrio-]

yep i liked it

Although some (including u) may think this is not original, it actually is. There arent alot of flash movies with this cool comic book based visual style. And nowadays u dont see western situation like this much more. The music was ok and added a little drama to the movie. It somehow felt like something tarantino would make, probably cause his recent movie kill bill 2 is also a tribute to western movies. Too bad u overdid the motiontweening a little bit and the characters were pretty much strangers. Some background bout their lifes would do the animation good.

poxpower responds:

well its original because there is only gun and boob crap on ng usually, so I'll admit this is slightly more stylish. But nonetheless, it sucked compared to what i wanted to do :/

[S-Unit (Clock MusicVideo)]

Hehe,

Pretty funny. Very amusing how u made a parody of the annoying i-just-cant-get-that-gay-smile-of-my-face-cause-iv-been-sho t-9-times wannabe 2pac, 50 cent. It was a lil bit too short though :( Short, but entertaining.

Sureal-Inc responds:

Thanks!

[AURORA - episode 3]

very interesting

Nice flash! Its always nice to see someone work out a story in a flash instead of just making 1 scene of pointles violence. Very cool u used michael jackson for ur flash. Many might think its corny, but it shows u have ur own style. The fight scenes were outstanding. Very realistic and u did an amazing job animating the kung fu moves. I really felt like the character was using the boxing 'jeet kune do' techniques instead of just fucking around. There were some minor things that i didnt like as much about ur movie. 1 was the in-flash music, it was mostly the same and for some scenes it didnt fit the mood very well. And 2 the storyline is maybe a little bit too predictable (from the first scene the guy rescued the girl and she said she was looking for her brother i could kinda tell he was it). Sometimes its better to not reveal the motives of people so obviously in dialogue but just let their actions/emotions speak for them. But u did an excellent job overall and this is much better than the average newgrounds movie

naz-1 responds:

What made you think Zen was her brother? Because you are wrong LOL!

[Samegame:High on Speed]

It had its moments...

Yep, ur movie had its moments. U have some talent, i can see that, although i didnt really think this was that impressive. The humor saved ur movie, but u really need to animate the characters more. They were just motion tweened from left to right. Other scenes were pretty kool like the race with the 2 cars and the scrolling background behind it. The music i didnt really like that much and the voices were below average. I think it was a little bit too short, so meh. Better luck on ur next one.

LAVAGASM responds:

thank you for your review, it was fbfed becuz I didnt know how to motion tween at the time I made this

[All American Girl]

nice musicvid

Ur drawing style is very clean and ur a great artist. The animation was left a little behind though but that's ok because the entire thing was fun to watch. I hope to see more things of u in the future

FemJesse responds:

Yea I'm new to animating, but I've been drawing all my life. Hopefully I'll get better at animation in the future. I think my fear is that the movies will get too huge if I do them all keyframe by keyframe.

[Just Another Psycho]

hmmpf

violence, videogames and teenagers, how original can u be? the story made no sense and because i dont like pointless violence there wasnt much of ur movie left to like. Yeah, yeah, the graphics were great, but so fuckin what. Thats nothing special nemore nowadays with so much visual talents on newgrounds. But the 14 yr olds will love this animation and thats 80% of newgrounds. (*sarcasm enabled*) Respect man, respect. (*sarcasm disabled*)

Evil-Dog responds:

Why do you blame me ?
I just make stuff I like and share it with NG. If you want good story telling and original stuff, make some dude.

[Digital Being.]

hey not bad

It was too short though. I was expecting an interesting story that would follow after he got attacked by the computer, but nothing happened. The graphics and sound saved ur flash though and i hope u take more time in the future to make ur animations so that besides interesting on the visual & audio side they will be also interesting plotwise

Zwickel responds:

Well, this was just ana animation test... I AM thinking of maybe a second part for this, with a bit more plot.

[Bushido Khaos- Episode 1]

it was ok....

Im glad u took time to develop a story. The comic style went great with the flash, but im dissapointed that u drew the characters anime style. I didnt feel that it went good with a dark story like this one. The animation was spare and could have been better. The moving hair u overdid a lil bit, cause even inside buildings, the hair of the blonde guy moved like crazy lol. Somewhere at the middle of the movie was a long black scene. Shorten it i suggest, because i almost closed the flash and thought it was over. Anyway, overal not a bad movie though

TheZebu responds:

The long black period is due to the audio lagging. (Don't worry about it in future episodes, I found out how to fix it.)

[FRANKY DAVE]

omg

U used a prodigy song for a flash. Omg. And not one of the overused songs from 'fat of the land' but an old skool one from their first cd 'the prodigy experience'. Normally i would blam this, because i hate clocks and the video itself was pretty shitty, but ur choice of music was godlike. So here's a 4 to you sir.

MonsterMunchClock responds:

If you had just said it was a good mix choice and left it at that I would think you were a cunt.

[Zomborg Apocalypse - 002]

cool!

This reminded me alot like a 50's horror movie. Very well done. The sound went great with the movie and the slow mo effects were awesome. Only it was a lil bit too short :( Im sure that if u work on this a lil bit more to make the episodes longer this will be turn into a classic series

SPLANKGY responds:

cool. my ultimate skull blaster cannon
has been engaged! save the laser!
thanks a+lot!
