Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[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!

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!

[Madness Morning]

Hmm, I was kinda expecting some Madness-themed animation for this, buut... well it was a different kind of madness. The animation has a nice sketchy style to it, the expressions are fun, the music is calm and classy... the plot, well, it was a good watch, but it feels like it lacks a punchline. It just... ends. Keep it going though!

[Fairy Powerful]

Now that's the next generation of Pokemon, brutal, savage, entertaining! Not for kids any longer. :P Love the wordplay... not to mention the animation. Great work!

[L.I.A.R - Animal Facts]

I love the narrative, that British accent somehow just really enhances the sense of realism, which then obviously clashes with the fictional content, which just combines and creates this surreal and hilarious hybrid of documentary and comedy. The lobsters though? Nah, that didn't really fit in. Apart from that it's a masterpiece, great old-school layer effects, transitions, and great animation, varyingly still and alive. Keep it going!

[Thanks - Halloween Short]

That was great, maybe not as shocking as it could've been, but definately creepy. If you wanted to make this a real scare, you could've made the ending more of a surprise. The eyes glowing, the hand on the shoulder, these elements all made the ending a bit predictable. Still a great Halloween flash though, have a good one!

[White Noise Commercial]

Hmm... a YT video embedded within Flash? I didn't realize this in previous submissions, until the YT play button popped up. That's a pretty unique approach! As for the commercial, it's great as always. Professional voice acting, animating, and a crazy wholesome idea. Keep it going!
