Knives's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Love Mass Effect 3 Style]

This was very well thought out and done incredibly well. It pretty much captures the half hazzard and senseless love options for ME3. The humor was good, the ending was great.

Nice work!

[Legend of Dragoon]

I miss this game. This animation was superb and captured the spirit of the game. For that my hat is off to you.

[Minecraft Pals]

it was okay.

The writing was probably the strongest element about this, you made it short and to the point. The graphical presentation was spot on, most likely taken from a minecraft texture pack some where.

Sound quality was great, and the actor (you) is good at giving convincing dialogue.

If you really haven't played minecraft yet, you can play it for free at notch's website. And the new alpha of the survival is a very promising indy game. And coming from a serious gamer, probably one of the best games I own at the moment. And for 10 dollars. It's a hell of a deal.

Check it out if you haven't.

Make sure to put a dick joke in your next flash.

[Awesome Reach]

I didn't really care for this one.

Most of your awesome movies have made fun of the plot or a game mechanic. This one doesn't really dig into the game itself at all more the hype surrounding it.

I usually laugh at your awesome videos because they point things I myself have noticed when I've played certain games.

The animation is great, the sound quality is top notch, but the uninteresting and not so funny plot just didn't have the magic your other awesome movies had for me.

[New ZombieFlash Mickii12]

Not very good.

The audio quality was not very good.

I would recommend you add in some more complex animation instead of tweening.

Write a plot and actually animate something worth watching, as opposed to throwing this together in 10 minutes.

The background was barren and lackluster.
The character movements were poorly drawn out.

Please take more time learning flash. I know you can do it.

:( it actually took me over a week to make with alot of that online findout how to do this, thanks for voting anyway i appricate it

[_Love]

Nice

I enjoyed this despite the sad intent behind the animation.

I think we all have the right person for us, and sometimes it takes a few tries to find that person. But I think I would rather have a few relationships knowing the person i was with was not right, then be in one relationship where I'm stuck with somebody who isn't for me.

Either way. Love is complicated.

Good flash.

Hildebrandt responds:

You know, I just had to complete an old animation I made out of frustration... :D You are correct. Thankyou for your review.

[LARRY episode 2]

Simply superb.

Everything about this flash was done the right way.

The audio quality was perfect. You had an excellent arrangement of music, and all of you folks who provided the voice acting did a fantastic job. The script was solid, great work.

The animation was fantastic, it was fluid and consistent and proved that given enough hard work it pays off in the end.

The character design was great, it was properly put to scale and believable.
The backgrounds were beautiful, although simple they served their purpose greatly, it added charm.
The action sequences were very well drawn, the 3d moments were also done very well and added to all the over all effect. I knew what was going on, I could clearly make heads or tails of the animation.

The plot as very well written, I haven't seen the first one, but going solely off what I've seen so far, this is an interesting story. I was glued to my monitor wanting to know what happens next. The comedy of the story was really funny, and you put in a just the right amount of unexpected gore/weirdness to make me ask if I really saw what I saw. (A guy puking up his testicles for example.)

I look forward to your next work.

[Ross The Fox Episode 1]

I think you bit off more then you chould chew.

The animation simply was too sub-par for this animation. It was good enough in the sense I could understand what was going on, but that's about it.

The sound quality was average at best, but it was good enough to give you some points concerning my score. As far as average flash submissions go I don't see a problem with the sound.

The plot made me wish I could get into a time machine, travel back in time, and stop myself from watching this. Half way through this I got bored and felt generally robbed of time. I think if you want to make an episodic series with ross the fox you're gonna have to take more time making up a plot people will generally be interested in and care about if you want to see any success from flash animation.

The introduction was probably the worst part of the entire thing, I would scrap it.

So to recap. you earned 2 points for competent sound and 1 point for a plot I could understand. I just wish I didn't have too understand it at this point.

[electric orb]

This was a good concept but it needs some work.

Looping animations, lack of a freeloader. These two things have got to be addressed right away. As I'm writing this review I have about 3 of them that looped and it sounds like a catastrophe.

The audio quality was acceptable, but for pieces like this that depend on the audio you need to try to bump up that quality as high as you can.

The song itself was very random and sporadic, I don't feel it quite matched the animation but I think that goes down to personal opinion. I would of rather seen a small conventional animation, maybe something still random, but with a small plot.

Over all it's not bad work. And I look forward to what you have to submit in the future.

[If Batman was Real]

Could use some work.

I think as faras shorts go this is actually pretty good. But since you looped some animation for the majority of the animation I have to take away some score here.

The sound quality was acceptable. You did a pretty good "batman" voice.
The animation could be fluid and more varied, you could of easily added some cartoon effects or perhaps a cartoony fall into the ground.
