Chris-Aldin's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[B/W Cartoon About Berries]

You honestly never fail to amaze me.

Its amazing how you can consistantly submit things that are so great. It also pleases me to see so many great submissions enter the portal and get the great scores they deserve. I wasnt expecting another prequel shown after the sequel from you, as you did with Spoils Burt toast Boy.

The graphics were awesome in every way. I love your drawing style, its really not the usual and adds some feeling to each one of your videos. This one stood out in particular because the paper-style cartoon hasnt been done much, if at all before, and you do it really well. The animation is always good with your submissions. Style was perfect in this movie, firstly your presentation was so good, eerie almost. This is what people love about your movies. The animating style isnt common, or even common for you but i love it! It adds a certain feeling to the mood that just doesnt go unnoticed. Sound was also awesome. The sound effects are great as always, and in this case the music was awesome as well. Nice job on this Chris Gladwin! The voice acting is perhaps better than i have seen it in your other submissions. The dialogue is always original and funny. Your submissions never seem to dissapoint humour wise. This one had some funny parts, even though it wasnt based around humour..i dont think.

Overall a very good job. I love each and every one of your submissions, and this one is deserving of a very good score. I will help it get even higher with a 5/5!

[.:FIERRAS:. Cartontown]

Too original for me not to like it!

This was great, and everything about this was utterly original from what ive seen. I mean the graphical style, sounds, idea and presentation, and i havent even heard of that program that you used before! Even if it isnt original i liked it a lot.

The graphics were really good, and extremely originaly done, with the drawings done on paper and so on. Anyways the colours were..well colourful and vibrant in soem cases, and it just felt cool to watch this because of that. Surprisingly, everything blended together very well, and i wouldnt expect that from an animation with this unique style. The overall style was very good, animating style is original, but i didnt llike the style just because of that. I liekd the feel, thanks to the perfect blend of everything. If you can do this kind of thing well, then i will give you high style points. The only problem i had here is the begining which was a little repetitive and perhaps a little slow to get going. The sound was good, but once or twice some sounds seemed a little out of place, and not totally necessary, but it general i loved the sound. The sound effects suited their action very good, for example the police car sirens. The audio quality was pretty good, fit everything togetehr even further.

Overall a job very well done. I have high hopes for this series, as this was just the beginning, just an introduction. I expect the following episodes to be even better, anyways great work! 4/5

[LL - Coffee's Loosing It]

Short, but i liked it.

I saw this earlier today and i am reviewing it now, so correct me if i miss any details. This was cool, i didnt really get it, if there was anything to get. Just cool to me really. I think its score should be a little higher.

The graphics were good, i loved all the shadow/smoke effects you had in this. It made for an interesting viewing experience. It all looked a little freaky, in a good way, and i dont know how else i can explain it really. The character looked cool just like all the effects. Style was good, other than the length and the unclear plot/story. Or maybe this was just an intro? Anyways i liked your animating style as i kind of already said. Different and cool. The presentation was cool. Im having difficulty explaining what exactly i mean in this situation, but i think you made me feel uneasy throughout the movie, this is a good thing just so you know. Sound was good, but there wasnt enough of it to be largely enjoyable.

Anyways overall this was good, make a full movie and this would have one hell of an improved score, i guarantee that and im sure many people would agree. Please make more, longer flash in the near future! 3/5

[Raar the baby lion]

Good,....very good!

Great job on this man. It was indeed kind of cute, and this definitely what i was expecting. I was a cute little story with Rar the lion, but i got a cute story and an odd one at the same time.

The graphics were good, and your style is so unusual an unique. But i loved it, the smooth drawings of Rar to that colourful backround. The tree was drawn in a way that i havnt seen before either, but i loved it. All the colours were nice and fun to look at. Smooth animation too! I had mixed feelings about your overall style, more good than bad however. Your animating style was nice as i already said, but the whole feel to the movie was different. Some parts i liked(at the begining) Then the dialogue grew repetitive, and i didnt really enjoy those parts. The sound was good, audio quality was nice so it helped with everything in sound. Its hard to tell if the voice acting was good or not because it is in a different language, but from what i heard it seemed well done.

Overall a very good job, and deserving of this score if not higher. Anyways it was fun to watch and i hope you can make more high quality movies in the near future! 4/5

qeshi responds:

thanx m8 :)

I actually mixed a lot of diffrent techniques, like the intro is made with water colours, the background and tree is painted with acrylics, and Raar is drawn with one of those dip pens in indian ink.

[Noodles on my Back]

I enjoyed this too much!

This was too damn fun man, probably the catchiest song i have ever heard on Newgrounds and im still singing even now while i review. I wacthed this 4 times in a row just to hear that awesome song over again. I cant believe you did everything by yourself.

The graphics were awesome, i loved your animating style in this movie. The colours, drawings and backrounds were all really good. The animation wasnt the strongest i have seen, but it suit the movie and song soo perfectly. So that explains a 9 for graphics. The style was perfect in this movie man. So good. Partly because of your awesome animating style, but for a few other reasons as well. The combination was perfect, i mean the animation went perfectly with the song, its just incredible how you did it. The sound, as i mentioned a few times already was perfect. I am amazed you sang the song and made all the music. The song was the catchiest thing i have heard for a long long time, at this point i am still singing it. The audio quality helped the song even further. Humour was good, but i wouldt say this is hilarious, just "smiling" funny. Then again i dont think it was intended to be hilarious.

Overall a near perfect final product. I loved the song way too much to express, i think the catchiest song since Magical Trevor! Anyways i hope you can continue this amazing work in the near near future! 5/5

[Skullivan]

Catchy!

One of the catchiest songs i have ever heard on NG. This and Noodles on my Back, which aslo so gracefully blessed us, flash wacthers. I am serious when i say that i will be singing this song to myself for weeks to come.

The graphics were good, but i wasnt hugely impressed most of the time. The drawings, colours, detail and animation all did the job. Sometimes the graphics seemed skethcy, but that wasnt a big problem. The drawings were kind of funny sometimes. Your style was awesome, i only had a small problem with your animating style on occasion. The song was EXTREMELY catchy and i am actually singing it as i review this. OH WHEN THE SKULLAVIN WALKS IN THE MOON LIT NIGHT.... haha thats crazy. The sounded really added to everything in a great way, i loved the singing and the music alot. The sullavins voice was eerie, and i liked it. All the sound was cool together.

Overall an awesome final product man, this was simply great, and i hope this will never be forgotten. So damn cathcy, thanks for the minute or so of intense enjoyment! 5/5

[Birthday Zone: Flight X19]

Clever...

Great job on this, when i saw birthday zone i was expecting something stupid and unoriginal, but what i got is the complete opposite. It was very original actually.

The graphics were good, i liked the black and white colours. It helped fit the mood of it all, and also fit the mood that was already there, kind of old movie style. The drawings were good, i like how you draw your people. Your style in this movie was very good, your animating style was nice, and i liked how you presented the movie, with the intoeudction you had. The sound was very good, and impressive at times. I loved the music throughout very much. It really set the feeling to the whole movie, and i also loved the voice acting. Both of these actually impressed me. There was humour in this, the idea was different, but i liked it and it was indeed funny.

Overall a great job, and i really enjoyed watching it. I hope you can make more high quality submissions in the future, please dont dissapoint lol. Anyways leave a response if you can! 4/5

mom-at-noevil responds:

thank you so much for taking the time for such a thoughtful review. I am just discovering the power of Newgrounds and the power is in these reviews.

[Dom's Funeral Emporium]

LOL good work!

You did a great job, and for something soo small. I really liked this for a couple reasons. I cant say anything was poorly done either.A very good product overall.

The graphics were good, but i wasnt blown away by them. This seems just like a little clip, or a side project so the graphics dont have to be great. The drawings were still good, and the detail was good in some places. The animation wasnt the greatest, but it did the job and kept this well flowing. Your style was great, biggest thing here is your idea. It was soo creative,maybe not the most original thing ever(product advertisement) but you put your own twist on it. The advertiser guy actually had a personality and he was annoying in some ways, but always funny. The sound was good in some ways as well. The music was good, but it wasnt quite loud enough in my opinion. The voice acting was awesome, i loved that guy LOL. The audio quality was decent, lol good enough man. Great humour in this, i think the whole thing was based around that guys hilarious personality. Anyways i loved that!

Overall a job very well done, and its just a filler for a site, now thats impressive! Anyways make a longer submission, im sure its score will be greatly improved, even though it is already really good. Keep it up guys! 4/5

["Rolling"]

Overrated? Definitely not.

One of the last reviews said this was kind of overrated, and then he gave you a 10. That i dont understand. Anyways i didnt think this was at all, i think it deserves that great score.

The graphics were great, except a couple physics problems here and there, but i know it is very difficult to get those all down. I just liked how everything looked, i dont know if thats great for 3D stuff either. I just enjoyed looking at it. Your style was cool, i have seen some of those "marble contraptions" around, but they were never animated. So its cool to see something familiare, yet original if you know what i mean. It had a decent length for that style of movie and i wasnt dissapointed with any of it. The sound was appropriately chosen, but by itself i didnt really like the song much. The quality was clear, it just wasnt my style.

Overalll it was very good. Its good to see so many different style coming from one author. It shows you got talent, and i hopwe other people realize that too. Anyways cant wait for more! 4/5

GAMECUBICLE responds:

Thanks for the long review man :)

I really like reviews like this, at least its better then those short pointless review, cause this helps me improving.

Thanks for all the nice comments :)

[Two Men & a Brick]

You did it again!

Great job again man, if anyone thinks you need Knox to be great, you proved them wrong. This was one of my favourite of your claymations, it had humour and a good story.

The claymation was impressive as always, your special effects were also great in this, for example the blood coming from the guy who was hit with the brick. The characters are well put together, and the animation was really smooth. Your style is always great, with a good story line and humour to go with it all the way. In this one you showed that something can be funny, but also have a meaning of some sort. The sound is great, i love your voice acting, it really just makes me laugh. The sound effects were good too! This has alot of violence, but its even better as clay, i like how all the blood looks. The humour in this wasnt quite as noticable as in your other ones, but even you said it wasnt intended to be funny.

Overall a job very well done, youre like Knox now, in the sense that i cant wait for each one of your submissions, because they are basically promised to be great. Keep it up! 4/5
