Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Every Printer Ever]

Can't relate to that campaign donation bit at all (is that actually a thing over there?!) but the rest of it: solid. XD First bits had me pretty entertained, but towards the end hmm... feel you could've brought in a stronger punchline somehow. More things going wrong? Just a plain 'no', without explanation (doesn't seem to be in a printer's nature to come with that particular remark - something totally oblivious would feel more in line IMO)? Got a bit stuck on that part, but you had perfection going before it! Super relatable too.

[Hightower My Power]

Thought this'd be about the Police Academy Hightower dude... super outdated references huh. Don't get the new ones but: solid. Solid animation. Fast pace. Random entertainment factor: definitely there.

[30k celebration]

Awesome. :) Just need a bit more sound! I mean: sound. It needs it.

Congrats on the 30K!

[The Lucky Goose]

Oh man. XD Some people really shouldn't be out there hunting...

Personally I appreciate the lack of clues in the beginning here, and a bullet can travel a looong distance, so it doesn't seem like a loose end that nothing but the duck's shown at the start. He just misses the duck. Anything can happen then. If it'd be more fun if he intentionally shot the kid though hmm... that just feels morbid IMO. Maybe just some kind of response, to make it clear that he was intending to hit the duck? I feel it'd lose some of the comedy factor if that wasn't actually the intention. But who knows.

I feel for the duck here. That expression's gold. And the end twist: all the greater when you just didn't see it coming! Really had a laugh out of this, dark humor though it may be. Good stuff.

Thanks!

[Venom vs Spiderman]

Definitely enjoyed this! The character proportions aren't all on point as they move, and morph, and swing about the city, but the coreography's great, as is the pace, and the city that pans away behind them as they swing through it... pretty solid fight work! And a new contender hmm... sequel potential?

[not my genie]

lmao yeah, that is hot. XD I take it some people aren't a big fan of Will Smith, for some reason...

[Veo Veo (I Spy)]

I don't really get it, but I love it! Something about... finding your way? Looks like each frame's actually hand-drawn too... must've been an immense amount of work here if it was.

[Inevitable]

That grind, day after day after day... even if you don't get the sense all that much time passes before he's caught in it. Maybe a bit longer a build?

When the darkness creeps up on the guy (the purple being - if that's his symbol or no) the animation felt a bit choppy, but when he wakes up in his... dreams (?) it's a whole other world! So smooth in comparison. The quality feels a bit inconsistent like that, but also like you get better as you go.

I can't say I really understand what happened though. I thought he was falling victim to something but... then he gets up and feels great? Who was that purple guy? Sickness? A dream eater...? And how does he overcome him?

I feel like it could be clearer, but otherwise it's not bad.

BrimBlam responds:

You basically hit/gave the perfect critique. I was really pressed for time and couldnt polish this like I wanted and ended up cutting a ton of scenes out. It still did better than expected though. I appreciate the words <3

[Summer Mordred Animation]

Pretty short, but so good quality! Looks like it could've been taken straight out of anime. Just a little more length and plot and stuff...

[Leg Stretch]

Moral of the story: you need a wall to stretch your leg? :P

Fun little sketch 'ere! Really smoothly animated.
