Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Miniambra: mini-ep.01]

I'm looking forward to seeing how this'll develop! The idea makes me think of the Angel's Egg movie, but the surroundings are much brighter. I'm not sure if you're attempting to make the world seem a bit menacing (the fish do seem menacing), because if you are the colors and ambient music don't really enforce that impression. The character expressions, however, speak more than the surroundings. I'll stay tuned for the sequel!

Miniambra responds:

Thanks cd! We've never published anything on NG and we are loving the participation and feedback we're getting :) There's always so much to keep learning from each person's interpretations! You are right about your observations, we wanted images and sounds to reflect Miniambra's struggle as well as her personality. The colours and music were designed based on the idea that beauty can also be found in that which is apparently hostile, dangerous or difficult. We hope that we can explore this more in depth in upcoming episodes :) Cheers!

Pretty nice action! The start reminded me of Urban - The Cyborg Project, but that's where the similarity ends. The boss fight was cool, but still it felt a bit strange there weren't more people around. Just a few guards, the boss, and then all's calm? Great animation though. Next episode... terrabyte? Looking forward to it!

[Quick Attacks]

Awesome, every single part of this. The spinning floor, the swamp full of Tentacool, the breeding, the whale transfer... I'm surprised they were as much of a surprise as they were since it's all still so easy to relate to. Great stuff!

[Between a Rock and a SWP]

Woo, Doom T-shirt! Awesome. Nice subliminal promoting on the book buy too, it might be true that which they say: if you tell someone to do something they won't do it, so if you don't tell them they probably will. Good logic.

DEFINITELY DON"T THINK ABOUT PURCHASING THIS BOOK

[I have Headache!]

Well that was... random. Seems like it's a way to practice language, but you claim you're fluent so that can't be it. :P Interesting watch, I guess, despite/thanks to that random factor.

[Enter the Action Remake]

Woaaah, I was not expecting the three-dimensional approach when the stick appeared by the door. The 3D is great, but as for the rest it could really use some refining. The bnlood splatter, the backgrounds, everything but the models. Keep at it!

[Dinosaurchestra]

Glad to find this! I thought I'd seen all the Lemon Demon MVs already, but it turns out there was at least one I'd missed. Great animation; great music! It's not as completely crazy and random as the usual, but still plenty entertaining.The asteroid finale was a bit of a... depressing end. :P Nice work!

[Whim Of Jellies]

Haha, that's some powerful spooning! :P I like the sketchy style of animation, and how living it makes everything seem. Don't really get why he just eats the spoon at the end though, and when his stomache rumbled I thought it was because the jelly he had already eaten was alive too... so I was expecting some follow-up on that. Didn't turn out as expected! Either way it was a fun watch though, keep it going!

Butzbo responds:

It's always fun to get reviews on relatively old works!, The bits of the spoon destroying things were the most fun to make!
Hah, after finishing the animation, I wasn't completely convinced with the ending either: he just ate his spoon as a form of 'solution' to avoid eating the defenseless "living jelly" (and for some reason the spoon made some sort of smoke emission, hahah). But I agree with the fact that it could've been a bit more elaborated as a conclusion.

Thanks for the review!
