jonthomson's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[hard work]

What the hell was that?

That was so bizarre, it almost became incredibly funny. As it is, it's just fairly funny, with some decent animation. If you like incomprehensible short movies, you'll love this.

[Love Lost]

Rather dull

It was OK, but I didn't enjoy the concept, found the sounds annoying and thought it was too short to be anything better than average. The graphics are the best aspect, but they're nothing outstanding. Not bad, but not the sort of flash I like too much.

Ask the NG admins nicely...

I think you submitted twice by mistake IIRC - email someone at NG and they should remove it for you.

[I Love Egg EP.9]

It's good, but straight into the top 5?

Don't misinterpret me - it's a fine, fine piece of flash - a good concept with some cool twists, great graphics and ok sounds, but I don't see why it's rated quite so highly. It's enjoyable to watch, and it reminded me of Micro Machines and Days of Thunder in places, but I'd say it should be low in the top 50 at best.

A different style of stick fight

Not an awful stick fight - it had a fair bit of length in it, and some variety in the style of fighting. Helped that it had somewhat of a setting and some OK sounds. You'll do a lot worse than watching this.

[Mr.Nice]

Meh, it's mediocre

It's pretty poor, but it's got enough in it for me not to completely rip it to shreds. There wasn't much animation but it was OK, and the Herb Alpert loop was good. If it was on an infinite loop (couldn't tell, but it looked like it), it shouldn't have been. It's not a 3.x movie, but it's not a blammable entry either.

[short skate aimation]

Poor skate "action"

The animation was smooth enough, but he just skated along on stuff! The only trick he did was a nose manual... it's short, dull and lacking in everything that a good skate movie has.

[Night Patrol]

Cool ninja style flash

A good short, liked the animation and the music. Little plotline to it, but it didn't harm it too much. These sorts of movie can fall two ways, and you can thank yourself that it went the good way. Do some more longer fights if you can!
