jonthomson's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[ki1o... does stuff :)]

Mindless rubbish

This made no sense at all - just a random collection of NG related animations which were very poor. Boring, pointless stuff to be honest. Voices were hard to understand, graphics were sub-basic and there was next to no humour and no violence. At least the clock day submissions in 2003 had some good points - this didn't.

[Stick Violence Shorts 2]

Good FBF animation

Above average stick fight, nicely animated with good frame by frame effects. It was too short though - the fight was over before anything really interesting could happen. Next time, add a couple more scenes on and it will be a lot better as you clearly have animating talent.

[Mario Breakdance]

Enjoyable sprite movie

Fun to watch, and better than a lot of sprite movies that I've seen. That background track was great, and there's some good graphical effects and clever ideas in play. The length was just about right so that it doesn't get boring yet it's not short at the same time. Great effort, worth watching.

[I'm a cucumber]

Random insanity!

Made me laugh just with the sheer randomness and stupidity of it. It's a real no brain flash, but it's funny. Not sure what that end bit was about to be honest, and it is on an infinite loop as well. Above average.

[LEVEL 10]

Short, random movie

Didn't think I'd ever see a movie dedicated to level 10... anyway, it was OK I guess. Didn't really appeal to me. I see what you're saying, but it's the same for everyone.

[Eskimo Sucks 3]

Didn't get it

The sounds didn't make much sense, I couldn't tell what was going on half the time, I just found it to be a poor flash movie. Nothing stood out as being good about it.

[Happy Memories]

Pretty boring stuff

Graphics were OK, but the movie wasn't really going anywhere, didn't have much of a plot to it, or a point for that matter. Short, dull and unenjoyable. It also ran really, really slowly, which I couldn't understand.

[skate scare]

Nice skate effects

Alright skate movie, nice use of different camera angles and lots of different tricks. Could have done with better sounds, perhaps some bails as well. No idea what that message was about.

[fun bounce ball]

Underrated animation

This deserves better than it is getting - could have used a preloader. Smooth animation, a nice musical backdrop, and a funny twist at the end, pretty much exactly what I was thinking should happen to make the movie better. A bit short but that doesn't particularly harm the movie.

[magneticroboticmetalgrey]

How long did that take?

Must have been all of, what, five minutes? Don't submit stuff like this, it's just ten or so frames of "can you tell what it is yet? Oh, it's a stick figure".
