Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Stickman Can't Fight 8]

Haha, that trip to the master didn't turn out as uneventful as it could've! The character-switching-chrystal wasn't a particularly unique idea, but it just might be the first time it's happened amongst a group of sticks like this! Plenty of comedy, fights and a good mixture of 'real' and simple stick-mation. Not sure I like all dem troll faces, but apart from that... keep it going!

[Epic Trick Shots!]

Oh man... that ending! It started as the trick shot parody I was expecting, then turned into something completely different. Great work on the expressions all the way through, and that sudden death... what a surprise. Keep it going!

[Skin : A Pixel Nightmare]

This really could've been a game! It's pretty unique how the flow of the story continually reminds of something you'd be able to play. Picking up key items, meeting bosses (the one), occasionally having an encounter that progresses the story... and the end battle was a bit like Pokemon. Hmm, not as scary as it could've been. :P I llove the Pixel style though, the sound effects, the subtly grotesque sceneries... it's not apparent that the animations fully meant to mimic a game until the errors and key combinations set in though. As for the story, the further it progresses the more there seems to be behind it, an abortion? Or a deadborn child? A young woman fighting her sadness and regret; hurting herself and at the very last moment forgiving herself as she fades away into oblivion? That's how I perceive it, a bit sad and spooky, not very scary, but definitely nice work!

ClockworkPixel responds:

Wasn't going for a scary feel really just an uncomfortable watch kinda thing? The main story is up in the air for people to make what they want of it, i picture a misscarage but each person looks at it differently

[Deadly Space Action #16]

Haha, AngelFire, lmao... this was a nice change in the regular pace. No war, no potential death... still plenty of action, great voice acting and random occurances though. Keep it going!

[Qumi-Qumi "Solar Energy"]

Woo, another fun episode! Nice seeing a few new characters pop up in this one. As for the plot, it's still just as simple and genius as it always is, easy, tribal, futuristic fun. Keep it going!

Toonbox responds:

Thank you so much )))

[A Todo Vapor]

And thus, the impending Doom is halted! What a way. :P It's great how this animation doesn't need the language to convey the plot, simple; entertaining... with a happy ending too! Now how about an alternative English version of that description? :P Keep at it!

placitte responds:

Hahahaha, thanks Cyberdevil!!! Thank you for the feedback!!! I will translate the description!!! ;)

[Madness SWAT]

Woo, another great Madness animation! Twas a bit late for the day of mention, but definately better late than never! Great action, great variation, and detailed sceneries. I like the shading on the walls especially, maybe I just haven't thought about it earlier, but it seems that's something unique to this (even though it's just mostly the first and latter scenes... laziness? :P). That truck is drawn from a pretty weird angle, but... it's all good. Great watch; great to see Madness in a less static environment too. Keep it going!

Spaderz responds:

lol will do man!, thanks :D

[Good Citizen]

I've been waiting to see something like this! The biggest part is the information, but the animation backs it up nicely. At first there isn't much, just a symbol of innocence immersed in routine and blissful unawareness, but then things start happening. The way the car is used twice, and the president breaks free from the corporations... it's all very symbolic without need for extra words to explain the circumstances.

It's the truth too, but with multinational corporations ruling the world with propaganda and industry, there seems to be little a single individual can do. We need to unite and revolutionize the way society works, make it less monetary and more caring. I've been thinking so for a long time, but still the fact remains that after all's said and done and the temporary inspiration I get from this animation settles down, I'll just keep going about my habits as usual, not really attempting to reform the habitat I live in. Maybe when enough discontent amounts there'll be enough motivation to stir a change. I believe the problems are worse in certain countries though, were there is so much more potential for large corporations to influence the power structure, and fortunately I don't think I live in one of those... yet.

Anyway, great work, it's an animation with a moral and a call to afterthought, not to mention the ending really fits the season. Keep it going!

KiWiArts responds:

Reading reviews like yours make the creation of the short so much more rewarding.
Sure it’s always nice to get good critiques, but for me it’s more about seeing that people start thinking about what they just saw.

Thank you.
And to you too, keep going to review other’s work with so much effort and time.

[Cree rhg 5]

Ah, classic stickmation! Great sound, great fighting, great use of atmosphere and objects, great variation, great escalation as it moves forward. Is that a super-saiyan transformation? :P Really good work, keep it going!

[The Birthday Dinner]

Haha, what a shitty day... and a pretty shitty main character too, metaphorically speaking. :P It's a great introduction, showing both character personalities and giving a little resume on the main one in passing. Short, simple; entertaining. Looking forward to more!
