MetalDart's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[LL - Rewrite]

Amazing

Didn't know if you knew this or not, but today is Sunshine Day, (something some Newgrounds users pulled together) and this certainly brightened my day.

The graphics were amazing. Each author worked his heart out into his work and I just have to say, it looks stupendous. I have watched this flash about twice now, and I love it each time. The style was great, seeing how locks drew other lock members. So, the graphics were basically sex for my eyes. Superb.

The sound was great. Just the feeling and how you guys synched it with the sound and action, rather than the lyrics, made it great. It was odd though how you picked a song in a foreign language, (to me at least) but the premise behind the song made up for that.

Not much interactivity, and only some parts made me chuckle, but there was violence alright. Not much hack and slash with gore, but rather a "show them hitting each other with a sword and quickly change scenes." Still, the violence didn't seem out of place, and all the violence was in good taste.

Improvements? None really. It's just sad though how some people will rather base it on being a lock flash rather than an astounding flash which authors worked their ass off for. So, get ready for a clock is better than lock reviews.

Overall, great flash and it's added to my favorites.
Grade: A+

Sunshine Lollypops! :D

Yeah, I remember Earfetish's rant abouth this level. Still, it was kind of cool to look at this one in comparison to level 17.

The graphics were good. The NG level icons you made look like the real deal. The sun still looks as happy as ever. THe NG tank however, still looks rusty.

I love this song! The only problem with it though, is that it skips in some places. If that's possible to fix, that would be great.

The sun is still interactive as ever, but there's not much in the humor department. Overall, good flash, just has room for improvement.
Grade: C+

PS: Any plans to do the extra 30 levels when they're added?

TheSoulMan responds:

Yeah, this is not my best one :S

Uhm, when the extra 30 are released, there'll be a 2nd season! And if the original 30 levels are remade, I'll make a remake of the 1st season!

Great song for a great flash.

The graphics were cartoonish, but it was still one heck of a flash. It was almost just like the music video. So, I had to watch two to three times, I loved it so much. I've watched this flash under judgment, but didn't have time to review it. It was great to protect it, and now I have the joy of reviewing it.

The grapics were cool, it was cool seeing each of your styles switching back and forth. I loved the graphics, and it was just like your guys previous works. Some improvements though, you could move the characters around more. Usually their arms just move, or they just stand there and talk.

As I have said before, I love the song. I even found myself singing to this flash I enjoyed it so much. The synching was right on key, and there was not much else to say.

Not much violence, I chuckled at some of the quick jokes, and it was a very good flash. So overall, great flash, good graphics, but it could have a little more action. Responses highly appreciated.

A feast for my eyes

This has potential to be another great series o Newgrounds. The graphics were amazing, the smoothness of this flash was extraordinary, and this flash kept me on the edge of my seat. This is something like I'd see on Toonami or other television channels. The graphics were amazing. All the details were worked on, the characters looked great, the special effects were outstanding, and the whole flash was an overall pleasure to my eyes. The style was great, seemed like Final Fantasy set in an animal world. The violence was kind of cutesy. I mean, that if someone got shot, it was just a little spark. And if someone got knocked out, they still looked funny. You have potential to make this a Newgrounds legend, but you will have to work harder on the sequel. I'll be waiting. Overall, great graphics, great idea, and this could be famous.

Ryanide responds:

Oh wow, thank you so much!

But before I make a sequel to this particular series, I'm working on a new animation for a seperate series. It's going to be more tween-intensive and twice as smooth (50fps) with MUCH better graphics. It will also be more like a cross between Pokemon and FLCL and will be a proper episode.

So a sequel to THIS animation could be a while, but I will be submitting similar stuff (I.E. Hyper Furry crap)

[A Grey Moment]

Haha very funny.

Those graphics were great, and when Grey Clock reached out and punched me, was a very funny moment. All the graphics looked like they were worked on for a long time, and the overall idea was pretty funny. You could expect what would happen though, but still, I laughed. The violence was good, seeing punch through my computer screen and knocking me out. I found the overall flash very humorous, but you ended it to soon. I know there could of been more, but I'm also glad that you didn't make it to long to show the "punch"line. Overall, great flash, but longer flashes would be better.

Eternal-Panda responds:

This was really only supposed to be a short fun little film. I could have done more for sure, but this short is holding it's own just fine, thanks for the review.

[The Report]

Pretty Weird

Those graphics were very well done, but the animation moved too slow. Some parts were just plain creepy and others just didn't make sense. There was little movement in this flash and I got bored pretty quickly. It would be nice if you made things move along faster and it took too long to get to the main point. There was violence, but I don't really feel it was needed. Overall, mediocre flash and it would be nice if you could spice things up a bit.
Grade: C+

Jewelltoons responds:

Yeah, I definatly wanted to add more to it, I couldnt though

[Happy Happy Joy Joy]

This flash made me happy happy joy joy

I remember seeing this when it was first on Ren and Stimpy. That song brings back a lot of memories. The flash had great graphics and the synching was right on key. Even though they didn't have mouths, the emotions of the clocks were enough to tell that you did an excellent job with the synching. It's pretty cool how you used a lot of different characters, but the part that annoyed me was how Crust Clock with two different voices (ren and the singer). I love that song and the humor made me laugh a lot. Even now, I am listening to the song as I review this flash. Overall, great graphics and a funny song make it to my favorites list. Great job. Responses highly appreciated.
