Fro's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sleep Walker]

For the love of god.

I thought you had finished making movies. I was so pumped up when I saw this submission under judgment. You better believe that I 5'd in through man. You've been my favorite author on newgrounds since I joined back in 04. I actually notice you have a few submission that I haven't check out lately so I think I might have to go back and review them all until I have gotten them all. It may take awhile though. Never know, I might review enough of your submissions to actually get an author review from you. That would be awesome.

Animation/Graphics - You have really come a long from your early submissions if I may say so myself. I remember back in the day and the clay men weren't as neatly done and everything was just a bit messier and not as as smoothly animated. I know for a fact how hard it is to do claymation as I have made several myself and they have never, NEVER, turned anything out like this. If they did then I would have a new claymation submitted to newgrounds every month or so. Most if not all of the animation was very smooth. I like the part where the heads were shaking almost violently when they were about to stab him. (While they were still sleeping)

Story - I don't think any of your stuff could honestly get any funnier. I think the main reason for that is because of the very simple humor you use. Other people have to try so hard to get the same laughs out of other people, but with your submissions it seems like the humor is so effortless. This movie wasn't any exception as it was very funny. Also, the length of the submission was good. It wasn't too long or too short.

Audio - The voice acting you do is always great. Did you ever have a submission where you actually had someone else voice act from you? I guess that question was pretty useless though if you don't reply to my review. >.< Oh well, I guess I don't really have much more to say about the audio part of this submission.

Overall - A great addition to your Klay World. I hope you still have a few more submissions planned out. Actually I hope you keep submitting to newgrounds for long time. All of your Klay submissions deserve well over a 4 for their score. Also, how could this submission not have won a daily award? It was awesome.

[Wegra Adventure 4]

Well..

First off can I say wtf is going on?? Lol, oh well.

Animation/Graphics - Woah, you said it in your author comments. The graphics are just a bit fucked up. It almost just looked like copy and pasted picture of stuff. Almost something the kitty krew would do. >.< Maybe instead of just the stick man and the poor quality of everything else you might want to slow down and take your time while drawing everything. Also, the movie was kind of close to the animation. Back up a little and give some background to the movie and just pretty much make stuff a bit neater. Take your time.

Story - I didn't really know what was going on, but I'm sure that there is some sort of story behind this whole thing. Maybe I will need to watch the other episodes to find that story out, but sadly I don't have the time to review anything except for the stuff for the review request club. Also, the text wasn't always easy to read and at times moved too fast.

Audio - Simple audio, which worked, but at the same time I think voices and sound effects might of helped the score of this flash just a little bit. I know you didn't have a mic, but maybe next time get a hold of a voice actor or two for the characters.

Overall, if this was some sort of joke submission then I'm sorry for the really detailed review, but if it was a serious submission then I hope the suggestions in my review will help a little.

[The Last Hour: Chapter 10]

Hmm.

I might say this a lot in this review. Why couldn't this be done on your other movies? I will give it a 10 for a couple of reasons. It is well animated, there was a story behind it, and the audio was better. It doesn't deserve a 10, but I will put in consideration of how poorly done the other movies were.

Animation/Graphics - I might say this a lot in this review. Why couldn't this be done on your other movies? The animation was very good. Not elite, but still a lot better then any of the other submissions you had. ALSO, you had animation, actual animation with things moving and action. I'm very impressed with it. Colors, backgrounds, smoothness, and everything else was perfectly fine.

Story - I might say this a lot in this review. Why couldn't this be done on your other movies? There was an actual story behind this episode. I think it's the first time you could make some sort of sense of what the movie was about. It seems all along that your series was some sort of comedy, but I had no clue before because of the bad quality.

Audio - I might say this a lot in this review. Why couldn't this be done on your other movies? Well, not for all of the audio. The music itself was fine just like all of your other flashes, but this time around the voices were clear and almost enjoyable. My ears weren't stabbing themselves every time I heard a voice.

Overall, I still think this series was some sort of joke and nothing you can say can make me believe otherwise. This one was so much better then the other ones, but with some more work you could be earning some more awards now and then.

Oh yeah, I might say this a lot in this review. Why couldn't this be done on your other movies?

[The Last Hour: Chapter 9]

Fuck this.. lol Sorry for my French.

Not good at all..

Animation/Grahpics - The animation was very glitchy and rough. The space ship was drawn very nicely, but that was about it. Everything else may have actually been a step down from your other submissions.

Story - I honestly don't know why I didn't give this flash a 0/10. I am a nice person though. I also think that the score of this flash should be somewhere around a 1.5 or so. It's really that bad. No story at all. I can't even comment more then that.

Audio - Some music and nothing more. It was probably the only reason you received any points from me though. Other then that.. there isn't anything to comment on.

Overall, this is probably one of the most negative reviews I have left lately, but the flash deserves everything that I have said and probably a lot more then that. There wasn't anything here really so I don't see what I can review on.

[The Last Hour: Chapter 8]

Hm..

Animation/Graphics - I can't say anything wrong with this at all really except for the lack of actual animation. Just like most of your other movies it's pretty much just like a picture and a couple of very slight movements. Nothing too great. The graphics and drawings are still getting a little better every time I see them. Good job there I guess.

Story - I can honestly say I haven't a clue what this series is about at all. The only thing I hear every time is the antichrist is doing this and doing that, blah blah... I really don't see how the story matches the animation too much.. something that really needs worked on in the future.

Audio - I think the audio in this one was really terrible. From all of the voices and all of the sound effects in general. The menu was the best sound effects. I think you need to get some voice actors and some people talented in audio to help with your series next time around.

Overall, this one wasn't very good at all. The audio was of bad quality and there wasn't too much animation at all. The cheesy humor that you tried to add really didn't help this series out at all.

[Narrative Flash Remake]

Not bad.

* Side Note - This is the fucking second time I wrote this review because the last time I did I accidenlty pushed the back button on my keyboard and my entire review was deleted before I finished it. It actually took me quite awhile to write it too. >:( Also, I do not enjoy poetry, but I don't review flashes on whether I like the subject or not, since I don't find that fair. Rather, I will review the flash on it's quality.

Animation/Graphics - While there wasn't any animation in your flash I'm sure I can still find some stuff to review about. The menu itself wasn't very organized and the background was boring. If this was improved on then my rating for the flash would probably go up another point or even two. I think they need to be put into columns and you need to look for a background like you had in the poems themselves.

Story - I only read the entirety of one poem because like I said before poetry really isn't my favorite thing in the world. The text was fine and the words were easy to read. The file size was huge also, did you compress the audio? If you didn't then compressing the audio might cut the file size in half maybe even more.

Audio - While the music went perfectly with the poems, I really didn't enjoy the button to shut the music off for one reason. While you could shut it off there was no button to turn them back on. I looked around for one and read your directions and there didn't seem to be one. I think that would be a good contribution to this flash also.

Overall, pretty much work on the menu and maybe add that button for the audio that I suggested. Good job.

SprintT responds:

Thank you for the advise, and please stay tunned. The menu will be revamped and so in the control pannel. Also there will be compressed audio so I can have more content.

[The Last Hour: Chapter 7]

Alright.

I know you have a new one out, which is better then these, but I still have to review them like I'm trying to help you improve.

Animation/Graphics - The animation itself hasn't changed any. If anything there wasn't any animation at all in this one. It was just a picture with voices overdubbed and not to be mean, almost anyone could do that whether they had flash talent or not. I do have to admit that your drawing has gotten better since you have been animating this series though. Congrats on that.

Story - The same old same old again. This really needs more action and just plain more stuff. It's just two people sitting there sharing words. There just needs to be more then that and I hope number 10 is like that because it did win Daily 1st.

Audio - The voices, while weird, they are almost fitting and they are clear. I do understand everything that is being said. Everything else about the audio also seems to be fine.

Overall, I'm still waiting till I watch that one episode that really stands out. I hope I run into it soon.

[The Last Hour: Chapter 6]

Not your best.

I will put this first so hopefully you will see it. Please don't give me the copy and paste response like you do sometimes. Give me a real honest response.

Animation/Graphics - The craft in the beginning was very promising. The animation of that was very smooth and I thought I was going to be ready for an action packed movie, just to find out that it was another very short animation where the person talked for a couple of seconds, only having the mouth move.

Story - I still really haven't seen too much really. It's kind of boring and the animation itself is so short that you don't really know whats going on at all. I hope your future ones are better, but I'm sure they are since your latest one won daily first place.

Audio - The audio selection was nicely chosen, and the voices were.. alright, but they do need to be just a bit clearer in my opinion.

Overall, keep trying. You have improved more then any artist I have seen yet. Congrats on having this win Daily 5th.
