jonthomson's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hitcher Head of w/ a stic]

It's a good job there's violence in it

Without the small amounts of violence, I might have had to rate this even worse than the two I'm giving it. The graphics aren't good even by stick standards, the voices sounded very poor, there's no plot and the humour is so infrequent you barely notice it.

[Wacky Paintballing]

Very funny paintball parody

This is very good. Loads of paintball violence, using every kind of weapon imaginable and making some up as well. It's all comic, great to watch with a nice soundtrack. I loved the maniacal look on the guys face when he's on top of the pile of bodies! Worthy of having been on the front page, this is fun to watch and should make anyone laugh. Nice job.

[MVS: Capcom Style Trailer]

Found it a bit boring

Preloaders! Never forget a preloader, even though it's just a trailer! Still, it's not a bad sprite movie. I just didn't find it had that much interesting action to keep my attention, though the finished article probably would. It's a fair Mario vs. Sonic battle, but it has been done before.

[[Clock] Signs]

Above average clock movie

Not bad at all - the graphics were cool and the concept behind the movie was great. The Timo Maas track worked well, if anything I'd say it was slightly on the short side and lacking in humour a little, but they're not major complaints and it's definitely one to watch if you like clocks.

[The anger in me]

Just about passable

I wasn't sure whether this would make it pass judgement, but it did, so anyway here's my thoughts - it was funny in places. It's short and violent, but you can improve this. Make the graphics better, add a bit more length to it and try to extend the plot of your next movie a little. Add some characters and things, and your ratings should get better. For a first it's fine, just take this and move forward.

[The Fast and The Curious]

Boring unenjoyable stuff

I really didn't get the point of this. That music was damned annoying, it's not clear what's going on half the time, the graphics look very poor and it's simply dull. I couldn't bear to watch past the first mission, so boring was this flash.

[3rd deminsion plane]

Nice use of 3D

The plane looks good and is animated pretty well. Pity that's all it is, as wayne said this needs to be incorporated into something more substantial.

[Swords Extreme]

Needed some direction

It looked OK to start off with, then it all became random with that guy shooting off the chain gun. It really needed to be longer and have a plotline, some sense of direction. The first half was fine, then the flash kind of collapsed.
