Ockeroid's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[KILLROY]

(I can never think what to put here)

The graphics were VERY uneven. Some bit looked really great (the shots of landscape were a joy to look at), but then other bits look like someone who's just found flash did them.

Very good sence of style. But brung down by the graphics in some parts. The chace was pretty boring. But there were some really great shots dotted around the movie.

The music was good. But the voice and sound effects were horrible.

Very hard to judge this one. Even though it's incredibly uneven, it flows well and even when you're taken out of the movie by the bad bits, you can jump right back in and be fine.

You've got some talent, just focus on making your films on the same level more.

So work on consistency. Got it.

It's really hard to watch the bits with the blocky animation. Really, it looks like it's 8 fps sometimes. Also there are a few boring bits were it's just the potato bouncing for ages.

Other then that, pretty cute. Nice idea. Keep it up! Just try putting a bit more work into animation.

ok...

[Not a Fairy Tale 01]

I can't work out whether you're taking the piss or not.
Ugly animation, boring story, awful voices.

The title screen was stylish. But there was no need for it at all. Except for the irony that the whole film is shorter then it.

I can see what you were going for, but it wasn't really pulled off. Got kind of boring since it was that one shot for most of the movie. Also, I knew the music so it didn't really help with the predicability problem.
Would have been a lot better had you added lots of cool cam angles for the rolling bit. It would make it more interesting and add a lot to the style you were going for.

Anyway, still pretty cute. You've got a good sence of humor and are able to tell a story and punch line well. All you need is a little more substance and you'll be makeing some great movies!

[Blue Attack]

...

Nice. Would be great to see a longer, more fleshed out version.
It was a shame there wasn't much gun play though.

[Why Do We Fall?]

...

Great style for it. Very very funny!
Good luck making any more films!

[Dear Dad]

...

Sorry about your loss. Very sweet caring video.
Admitedly not the best graphics, blah blah. But it had emotion and that's what mattered in this movie.

[The Axe Effect]

...

Uhh... not very funny.
I get what you're saying about advertizing. I just think you could have made it more advert like and maybe a different way of doing it. It just wasn't enjoyable.

Also when they are walking at the begining, you should start the walk cycles differntly so they don't look like robots or amry men marching.
Good luck with your next project though.

[The Dying Neuron]

...

It kind of reminds me of when I did 13a. You've got a good idea but you don't yet have the experience in flash to forfill the ideas full potential.
It's still worlds a head of most of the crap on this site. Keep on going with flash. I'm sure you'll come out with something truly great!
