Chris-Aldin's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Flycatcher Face-off]

Ha that was great.

This was some great work. I really loved the idea, creative and funny. This has all the elements to be a great flash. I will touch on each aspect in my review.

The graphics were great, really loveable. Your animating, and colour style made the graphics so pleasant to look at. The backround was good , and the drawings were as well. The animation was pretty funny, you captured some of the expressions very well. Your style in this movie was great, partly because of your animating style. The feel to the movie was great, it was very pleasant to watch. The sound did the job, but it wasnt amazing. I liked the sound effects and audio quality. The humour was very good in this too. Based on this i would say you have a great sense of humour. Its not gross or anything, just plain funny. The ending was the best part.

Overall i really enjoyed this and it was really well done. I hoe you can continue to make great litttle movies such as this. I wish ths was longer...anyways keep it up! 4/5

Max-the-Great responds:

I was lucky to get the sound effects I had. You'd think 'buzzing fly' or 'frog croak' would be easy to find, but nooo...

[All Alone Trailer]

Woah, this looks great.

As a first submitted flash to newgrounds this was incredible, and even if it wasnt a first submission this would rock. And this is just the trailer! In my review i will briefly explain each aspect.

The graphics were sweet. They were drawn very well and everything was easy to decipher. The backrounds from what i saw were cool. I liked the black and white effect, it would be cool if the real things were going to be like that. The animation was very nice as well. Your style was good, i could tell just by this short trailer. Animating style is cool. I know the real movies will be longer and thus increasing your score overall. The cinematics were great, like the thin screen. The sound was good, Go Gorillaz! Yeah sound effects were good though minimal, and audio quality seemed to be nice.

Overall this was very good and i cant wait to see the entire movie. I know its gonna be great! Way to go! 4/5 (expect longer reviews for the real movies.)

Lt-Mariachi responds:

thanks man i do my best im workin on the full one right now

[Transitions (Star Wars)]

This was good!

This was a great teaser, and it really wants to make me see the actual movies. I cant wait! Even though this is just a teaser i will put effort into my review.

The graphics were good, you got a great style going on. The colours were very cool, everything seemed accurate and otherthings just plain good. The drawings, backrounds and animation were all great. The style was good, big part of this because of your animating style. Star Wars parodies have become a little repetitive, so many have been done. It was good how this wasnt completely like the others. The sound was good, it seemed to be the real music and the sound effects were pretty good too. Nice auido quality. The humour was also great, im sure i will laugh out loud in the real thing.

Overall this was good, everything was well done. I cant wait unitl the real movies are out. Expect longer reviews for the real movies. 4/5

Brand-new-hero responds:

thanks al recent reviewers for your kind words and advice. I am aware that some things promise and dont deliver and yes theres alot of pressure but i'm gonna do my best. Bear in mind i knwo not everyone will absolutely fall in love with it but here's hoping! i'd rathe rnot disappoint so amny ppl who obviously have taken interest. I have added the stop function (i think) so let me knwo if that hasnt worked - if anyone can tell me how to properly stream audio i'd b very happy to listen cos i am aware the first music track stops too early. thanks J

[Great Weed Drought of '03]

this was good, nice work.

Interesting idea, and it was executed fairly well. Nothing was done noticably poorly. I will touch on every aspect that this movie had in my review.

The graphics were pretty good to an extent. They werent like "HOLY SHIT!!! OMG!!11!111!!1!oneone" They were more like "Great" The drawings were pretty good, i liked the backround in one short scene, i think it was when he is gettin ready for work. The facial expressions were done nicely, the aniomation was generally good except the part where they were walking down the street at the end. The style was good, i liked the animating style, but i didnt particularily like the feel, but its not my style. But it was good anyways. The sound was generally good as well. But the voice acting was tough to hear at some points, sometimes it was just the audio quality , other times it was the volume, so sub titles would prove useful. I found some parts funny but the whole thing wasnt really the style of stuff i find funny.

Overall this was well done in every aspect. Congrats on the great score and i hope you can make more great flash in the near future.4/5

Sexual-Lobster responds:

wow that was a really comprehensive review, everything you've said is fair, thanks for taking the time!

[Projective Detective ep2]

Wow lol awesome work!

This was great, everything about it was well done. The writing, the graphics, almost everything you could think of. I will briefly explain each aspect in my review.

The graphics were great. The drawings were cool, i like how you draw your people, its very creative. The backrounds were good, for example when there were 2 people standing in the backround. It shows you put a lot of effort into it. The animation was grweat too, easy to see what was going on at all times. Nice graphics overall. Style was great, i really enjoyed the whole movie, and also the animating style, as i said i liked how you draw your people. The feel was good because of the music, voice acting and a few other things. Great style overall. I liked the sound a bunch too. The sound effects and music were pretty good. But i enjoyed the voice acting most of all. Each character had a very distinct voice. The humour was awesome, its not one of those LOL ROLF things but definitely funny.

Overall this was really well done, congrats on the high score and i hope you can continue to do well in the future! 5/5

ayegowj responds:

That is the nicest review I have ever read. Thanks for your time, and we will continue with the series and improve on everything.

[Robots are Stupid]

HAHA great work!!!

This was awesome, and the whole idea was brilliant and as one of the other reviews said "Witty". I thought it was going to be a flash with a pwoerful message but what i saw was much better. I will explain each aspect you had in my review.

The graphics were great despite the somewhat low quality(less pixels i think). The drawings were great and very detailed so its obvious you put effort into them. The backrounds were just as good as any drawings. The animating style was pretty cool for a couple reasons. The people actually looked like people and it was refined. The animation was good too. Your style in this movie was great! As i said the animating style was great and very cool. Also the feel was very good, thanks to the humour. The idea was brilliant. The sound was pretty good, this is thanks to the voice acting. It was awesome in this, with each character having their own voices and the great expression in each one. The sound effects were fairly minimal i think, but you used them well. The audio quality could be a little better but great sound overall anyways. I absolutely loved the humour in this. I was laughing almost the entire way through. My favourite part was where the robot was running away after saying yer mom....he said"HAH exclamation point oneone" LOL In really laughed there.

Anyways this was awesome overall and definitely deserving of its high score. Please keep up the great work! 5/5

Bobert-Rob responds:

Why thank you for the review. Yes, that robot sure loves his own outdated jokes, doesn't he?

[Fowl Injection]

Woah...

I never thought a flash with no sound would do so well. I actually really liked this. No sound gave it a different feel than most of the other movies i have seen. There isnt very much to grade this movie on, but here it goes anyways.

The graphics could not have gotten better. They were just incredible. The drawings first of all were very good, accompanied by great detail and backrounds. The characters looked pretty good, so great character design. The animation was the most impressive part about graphics. It was sooo smooth, that was just awesome.
Your style was great too. Mostly because of your awesome animating style. It is hard to say anything about the feel without any sound, but it was still cool. And cant you and sound, like as an update or something, or you can resubmit it with maybe even just a song playing.

Anyways this was good, with a few sound effects and a song this would easily have above a 4/5 and thats what i give you for now.

non-applicable responds:

Stay tuned for updates,my friend. I will soon add the sound

[BLAM...a spin off?]

Nice work!

I must say i loved the idea, it was very creative and original. This was pretty good overall with a few strenghts and some flaws aswell, but i dotn have any big critiques for you.

The graphics were good. The drawins of Bush were great, but the other characters, there was something missing, though all the drawings still managed to do the job. Nice animation for the most part. The style was great, the idea, as i said, is original and its always good to see an original movie. Thats what i based style off of. Sound was good for many reasons. Sound effects, though not numerous were good to an extent. The voice acting was good but i think jus a tiny bit quiet at some points.All this combined with decent audio quality. The humour in this was great, again coming from the whole idea. I laughed at some parts.

Overall this was good, definitely enjoyable. Keep up the nice work. 4/5

YAY i love when this happens. Anyways you did a good job, i liked the graphics , a little simple but good all the same and definitely better than average.

Style was cool, mostly because of the choice of song! The whole feel to this was pretty cool too. The sound was good but the voices were a little hard to understand.
Overal this was good and congrats on making it to the portal. Keep up the good work.

:) Thank You!

[The Hebrew Gymnasia 3]

That was good!!!

This was pretty well done, for a few reasons. It was weird, its hard to explain what i mean. It was like upbeat and a little out of control. It was fun to watch, so that out of control type of feel proved worth while. I will explain why i liked this, and perhaps areas for improvement as well in my review.

The graphics were pretty cool. They didnt really have a unique or distinctive style, but i couldnt help but like them. They had a cool cartoony apperance to them. REALLY hard to explain what i mean. The characters were cool, and were all drawn pretty well. The animation was very smooth throughout. So there werent any big problems to the graphics, they were great overall.

Style was pretty good. As i mentioned before the whole upbeat nature to the movie was great and it made this extremely fun to watch. That is really important about flash, you gotta make sure everyone or most people enjoy it. The style and the feel to this particular movie were basically the same but still great. I think its cool that you are making a bunch of new characters.

Sound was great as well. I enjoyed the sound effects. The music was good and set the mood pretty well. However, what i enjoyed most about the sound in this movie was the voice acting. It had great expression in the first couple characters and later on it got kind of funny and also with great expression. Strawberry's voice was generally good but it wasnt the best clokc voice out there.(the best was in the 21 clock o' street)

~humour came from pretty much the voice acting, but also the feel of this.~

Overall this was pretty well done, again giving the clocks a better name. My respect for the Clock Crew continues to grow! Keep up the great work! 4/5

ReporterClock responds:

Thank you! ^^ I'm glad yous aid you liked my cartoony stle, because that's exactly what I'm aiming for!

I am also aiming for upbeat animations, and Im glad you liked that too!
