Chris-Aldin's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[MK vs. SF 3]

Extremely Impressive.

This is arguably the best one out of the 3. While all three are pretty similar you do seem to put more effort into the following one, just for a slight edge. Well, this one was great for the exact same reasons as the others, and that is all for the best. The action was just flat-out awesome, some of the best I have seen in any flash movie on the whole site. The ending of the fight was too intense, I really had no idea who was going to come out the victor. Also, the clever use of the various sprites in the movie is often funny, or they serve their purpose quite well and accurately. (like the sleeping guys) The graphics were really well done as well. I loved the sleek menu screen and the cool effects during the credits, but the best part was how everything ran so smoothly, even with all the cool energy balls and explosions on screen at the same time.

Overall this was an intense and action-packed sprite movie, one of the best for sure. Please make one more for all the fans of this series!

[Madness Consternation]

Ahh the typical Madness ownage.

This seventh Madness combat had all the ownage, fighting and blood that made the others famous. While technically I guess there is no real storyline, that does not change the fact that these are incredibly entertaining and the last thing you need in a flash like this is indeed a story. Of course the variety of weapons is always a plus. While most things were familiar to me, this one seemed a little different due to the chasing monster and the crazy turn of events at the end.

I do not expect this to be your last Madness flash, but either way don't let it be!

[Ghosts by the Road]

Charming.

For some reason i seemed to really enjoy that despite the lack of what you would usually find in a great flash (action and laugh out loud humour). Though it could have been anything,I think I enjoyed this because of your unique art style, the funny conversation they were having and the weird mix of characters. I really liked the use of colour only in certain objects, possibly to set them apart from others. The expressions on the characters sometimes were funny enough to warrant a smile. I loved the whole atmosphere of the conversation as well, just like four friends arguing over something pointless.

Anyways I really enjoyed this. dont stop here!

AkaiHato responds:

Thanks! I am a fan of pointless conversations as well. Somedays I like to watch helicopters explode (...in movies), and some days I like to listen to rambling conversations between people I know.

[Zelda: Heart for the Hero]

Very funny but a little too short.

This was a great movie in every way, great animation, a clever idea and it was indeed very funny. The only real critique I have for this was its length, its a shame you had to rush to finish it on time. This is also great for all the Zelda fans who can never get enough of some good old Zelda humour. The voice acting was rather good as well.

Anyways funny stuff, please make more!

[An Awesome Halloween]

Truely awesome.

Very nicely done. From the sounds of it you do not know too much about flash :P, but that doesn't change the fact that your animation is actually pretty good and your movies are hilarious. I really enjoyed this one because while it did have the "awesome" style to it was still different from your others; it had 3 unqiue characters, obviously the funny dialogue and the potential for using them in any more movies you may have in mind.

Nice job, cant wait to see more man.

[Awesome the Hedgehog]

Shame it's so short, because it was sweet.

Although it did not quite live up to Metal Gear Awesome, due to the length and hilarious animation MGA had, it notably had some of the same humour and style. The animation in this was better in a sense, less "Awesome", the characters seemed more accurate compared to the real deal.

Anyways good stuff man.

[Mario's Last Battle]

First time Ive Seen Bowser with a mushroom!

This was fairly original as far as sprite fights go, for the reason stated above as well as the unexpected ending/alternate ending. To be honest I just thought Mario was going to have to look in another castle again. (though there would be goofy dialogue first.) The movement were really smooth, they managed to keep the action rolling at the pace you seemingly wanted them to.

I think this should do well in the contest, and hopefully it does. Keep it up.

[TRACER episode 1]

Cool, this can become one great series.

This was a nice demonstration of a unique animation style. It seemed very precise and you also seemed to put a lot of emphasis on movements such as walking and ringing the doorbell, all of which looked pretty cool. However, it would have been nice to see more detail in the actual drawings and character design if possible. I think it will be really interesting to stick around with this series seeing how the character develops and definitely to see how the story ends.

Overall nice job, im looking forward to the upcoming episdoes. 5/5

[PALADIN episode 5 part 2]

Very memorable series!

This finale secured the series' spot in Newgrounds history. The fans of this series will certainly never forget the beautiful animation and well-developped storyline of the Paladin series. For me, this is one of the best series on this entire site and that is saying a great deal as there are some extremely impressive ones here. I hope you will continue to make movies of this quality. 5/5
