Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bite the Dust]

The mist is pretty cool... though otherwise this feels a bit... void. Wish there was a meaning to it. Even with the tragic end it doesn't really capture the emotion, or the pain with the trap, or the dystopia in more ways than the visual.

It was what it claims to be though! Visually not bad, but could use a bit more build-up and expression somehow. I don't really immerse.

Kariah responds:

Thanks for the honest review! I agree with your points completely. The story was originally a 3 partner with three bombs leading up to a gag, but with it being a project in university, I had to cut things short and miss the punch line.
Glad you can dig the style though! that was kinda the real point of the project :)

[Amy Mouse - Big Balloon Blues]

Could've been a perfect loop if only it was the same ice cream. :) Pretty morbid cartoon here, and with that harmless style, what a contrast... you've got the old cartoon style going pretty well overall, with the lack of speech, and color, and music, but I'm missing the static overlay people seem to add to really complete the look. Just doesn't feel so old without it... but maybe you weren't going for old after all. The circular shots are pretty unorthodox too, seems those came into cartoons a bit later.

Enjoyable stuff though, macabre though it may be. Gets me thinking of Retarded Animal Babies a bit. If they'd been here in the old days, black and white and all...

Enophano responds:

Thanks alot! I will add the static and some effects on another cartoon I'm gonna make. Amy will be back someday!

[Monsters! In the Closet PILOT]

Clever way of pausing it for a promotional narrative at the end there! Would definitely be cool to see more of. Regarding sound: outro track feels a bit high compared to the main part. But: minor details. Looking forward to more!

Cyaboron responds:

Thankyou so much!! Oops yeah, I haven't quite gotten the hang yet of evening the sound out (volume etc) so I'll pay more attention to it next time! :)

[Kirby | Jungle P Opening]

Good start but it cuts off pretty quick... bit short!

-cd-

MysteryMist responds:

Thanks! Yeah, I didn't know how continue more so I cut it off there

[Antisocial - Animated]

Wish it was more than a loop, feels like something that could've had the finish, but the vibe and flow of it all otherwise: awesome. It's got that mood too.

TheRealCornelius responds:

I agree, would have loved to extend it and give it more story but it was a commission on a budget. Cool part was that I had complete creative control

[Gildedguy & the Green-Eyed Cowboy]

What a massive adventure! Such a contrast in style/polish after the first but, but it was great all the way. Pleasure to watch. And I do love a good Western... not so common you get an animated one these days either.

gildedguy responds:

Thanks Cyberdevil!

[Komi Chad: Rise of Manbagi]

Didn't follow this at all but: had fun with it! Randomness done right, and maybe there's a series here that I could get into too...

-cd-

Zer0cracy responds:

Sorry for the late reply, but I'm glad you liked it! And yeah, I can recommend Komi-san as a series to get into.

[ShoeNan]

Awesome. :) The timing's just perfect too. Wonder what card game this might've been in reference to hmm...

-cd-

[Power Rangers-ANIMATED]

Impressively smooth animation! In classy Hanna Barbera (no idea if she was the pioneer with this particular franchise too - but seems like it's a style that followed the time) manner too. Shows a lot of time went into detail and lighting too. Honorable homage.

SirMrHowell responds:

Thank you so much for your compliments! I'm glad you enjoyed this piece.
