Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[A Fistful of Lockpoints]

Despite the initial slowness, this was a good watch. Can't say the voice acting was perfect, and the shootout felt unnaturally slow, seems the enemies would've had time to shoot him many times over before he fired the first four shots. Ah, but minor insignificances set aside, it was a good tribute, makes me feel like watching the For a Few Dollars trilogy again. Nice work!

LAVAGASM responds:

Yes, I agree. I was trying to do a slow motion shot effect, but I forgot to slow the bullet sound down. Thanks for your review!

[How to eat a pickle]

Eh, yeah, what a fickle pickle, what an odd animation, makes me thing of the jar of sliced pickles in the dridge. Did they suffer a similar agony? Where they cast down into grueling pain and agony in their final moments or did it go quickly? Nice work. :P

[Wonders: Stardate]

Great animation, great voice acting, and a plot that moves through constant connections and disconnections. It starts joyfully, moves on to doubt, deception, drama, anger, jelousy, surprise, blisfull happiness and a final grief. What a venture. I did think the characters looked a bit LFish, and they were, wonder if it's the eyes or the lining that makes it easy to recognize the style. Nice work!

[Boardwalk Empire - Parody]

Haha, hope the syndaicate doesn't watch this and start making a move on the industry, the big brother chunk of society is already big enough. :P Great animation, great voice acting especially, and the music that kicks in when they start taking over is a perfect fit. Nice work!

[The Monster is Me]

Didn't understand what the animation was really about until you explained it, but it's clear that it's a fight to get away from/rise from something, and it's all portrayed very effectually. Great play on the light and darkness, and the scheme of colors. It looks good, and the music adds some atmosphere to it,. At the end, it's all bliss and harmony. Nice work!

[The Water Sound]

Oh, man, this is awesome. The whole animation is like a living painting, especially the backgrounds. Movements are smooth, audio is relaxing, and the poem... after seeing that scenery, it's beautiful poetry too. Didn't know about Matsuo Basho either, so this was a good history lesson, if all things are learned like this I'm bound to remember them. :P Nice work!

RPGsrok responds:

Oh that's wonderful to hear man! Animating on ones seems to have paid off nicely, and it's good to know those paintings went to use. Basho was the first master of the Haiku format, travelled around Japan (by foot of course) for a year just to get material, and there's wonderful simplicity in his work (though of course, the story by which this poem was made is completely my creation). I am all too happy to have helped share his work! =D

[Madness Destruction]

You never can go wrong with a little Madness, great idea for a collab! There's prenty of creative action and comedy in this, the one with the sun was pretty fun, the process of creativng a soldier was interesting to see, the mindless killing was what I hoped for, the flashing lights at the credits were annoyingly fast and flashy, and the menu buttons were a bit hard to click when they were moving, they seem not to be clickable all the time either, took me a few clicks to get the collab started. Overall, great work! Btw 5 months of work!? You mean... 5 months of collab organization? Bit misleading. :P

Kenamy responds:

haha, not my fault, but you need to be fast, you are affronting a troll menu. about 5 month of work, well... it not appear for you liek this but the credits, intro, scene select, menu, taked me over 2 months, and 3 months for my parts.

[College Off the Record E5]

The contrast between the serious voice act and what's actually being said, plus imagery, is just great. Plenty of satirical comedy in this, and both sound/animation atmospheric. Nice work!

[Rejected Cartoons]

The skits weren't so bad, but the recording quality brought it down a bit. For the most part it was just a bit annoyingly fuzzy, but at times it was even hard to hear what they were saying. Don't know if it's the mic or voice, but that could use some improving. Keep it going!

DougCartoons responds:

Thanks! I'm hearing the audio to be a problem.

[Mysterious Bones]

This really does make me want to check out that series, awesome animation, random yet p+erfectly choreographed, the van jumping into action at the same time as the music really kicks in, the frame, the play with shadow and light, it's catchy and atmospheric. Nice work!
