Michelangelo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Amazing Adam Android]

booyah!

wow!
the visuals were very
appealing and i really
dig the artistic and visual
flare, unique and original.
the choice of music was
fitting and sfx effects
were mediocre, yet
cartoony. the caricature
designs were fresh and
crisp, and reminded me
of...or a little remeniscent
of the anime show "astroboy".
the whole over experience
was light hearted, charming,
entertaining, and enjoyable,
and a reccomended viewing.
also, the voicework was really
subperb :P
score: ****

[Halo: Funny Situations]

not too shabby

wow...this doesnt look
like a ripoff of the parody
by nALO. jk, all in good fun,
but seriously the visuals were
very appealing and sharp.
despite the crisp graphics,
the animation was simplistic
and the humor was very bland,
lack luster, and uncreative. plus
some of the scenes felt waaaay
to dragged out then necessary.
otherwise this flash was midly
entertaining and would of been
better if the humor wasnt so
subpar. also the voicework
was only mediocre and sfx
effects seemed to be sparse
and overused. so it may not
be as great as the parody by
nALO and crew; however, this
was a lot better then most
low quality spoofs and 2nd
best in my book. overall: not
bad, in fact...i liked it!

[American Idle]

solid spoof

nicely done. the whole
presentation of the film
was very proffesional and
captured the look and feel
of american idol. though what
is more impressive then that
is the caricature of gary. it
looked so0o suprisingly like
him and the mouth movements
were perfect. despite the crisp
and sharp visuals with good
appeal, the flash seemed a
little dragged out and the
humor wasnt that amazing.
though the interactivity at
bottom of the screen was
very nifty...never seen that
kind of option before in flash
...and this was a great spoof
on the phenomenon.

Aww, I thought that was going to be a poem. But thanks!

[Marcus Peblo 8]

meh

the surreal like graphics
i did find appealing, but
the length of the flash
was waaaay too short
and for a conclusion of
a series, it would of been
nice to see it end with a
bang. though the heaven
like appearence of the
world was gorgeous
regardlessly.

[Madness Depredation]

no pie

pure insane-ness.
very on the borderline
of incoherentcy. its nice to
see another great episode
of the mash hit flash series,
but this itteration felt awkard.
its just become five times the
madness before, maybe a little
too much for me to handle :P
regardlessly, it was very visually
tripping when clown entered beserk
mode...also a little freaky. it seemed
there was no point for the protaginist
to prove when he has already killed
the sheriff. also, he has died for the 5th
time again and without any dramatic
scene to end it by...just by a psyched
out zombified clown. though the
violence is was you come to expect
from madness and delievers bloody
satistifaction. music was great with
the fast paced frentic beats; however,
the love i had once of this series has
kinda dwindle when this does
nothing to become ground breaking
from its previous episodes, it has
kinda become old for once. i did
still got a kicked out of it, despite
the dissapointing ending and hopefully
next will be awesome. maybe this time
in a robot suit or something in tokyo,
against godzilla?

[The Composer]

outstanding

its nice to see a great
quality noir such as
this in a long while.
it is very deservent
of the attention. music
was highly subperb and
beautiful with great visuals.
the whole pacing of things
was well done and i really
enjoyed how everything
was pieced together
perfectly. of course it
was kinda depressing, but
its a noir. with a cool twist
in the story and slick, stylish
presentation, this warrants a
must watch. awesome job and
congrats on the awards :)

["Target Practice"]

sad...very sad

i get a horrible vibe from
this...it also makes you think
twice about the creation of
flash cartoons today. at first
glance, it appears to be a
pointless and violent short
with not too shabby fbf
animation, but after realizing
who has made it, it makes you
ponder whether or not this was
his way of expression what he
was going to do. as artists, we
express your thought an ideas
through our creations, so it makes
sense as to why this is being shown
public record. maybe if people that
knew him that had suspicions and
saw this...could of probably prevent
the school shooting; however, it
seems unlikely that would of been
and already too late.

[Metal Gear Crisis 1.1]

metal gear nostolgia

finally a excellent and subperb
flash version of metal gear solid.
the storyline was qwerky and of
its one creation, but relies on its
sense of humor more. the visuals
were eye candy with a sharp, clear
quality; professional presentation,
such as menu interactivity, talent
in overall project like voicework
and in animation; awesome and
adorable caricatures of some of
the classic characters like snake,
solid and liquid, ninja or aka: grey
fox, and otacon too.
though i was kinda hoping to see
some more characters from the
franchise, but probably in future
episodes? the humor was somewhat
entertaining, but not that appealing.
at times i wonder whether or not it
was a metal gear spoof without the
graphics and look of things telling
me otherwise. also, i wish and ask
for more nostalgic moments. im
glad that it is trying to at least
come up with its wacky storyline,
but it kinda detracts from the overall
metal gear feel. especially with that
made up character...which looks like
a knock off fortune and her rail gun.
though the whole package was a
breath of fresh air to say and i
hope to see at least some more
itterations...hopefully with more
characters and scenerios. just
needs more then two inside jokes
then liquid being the right arm of
revolver ocelot and the 2nd controller
port trick needed to beat psycho mantis.

[Blackman Dead]

woah...

the poem and animation
worked together seamlessly
and the whole experience
was highly dramatic.
the visuals had a very unique
artwork and color pallette that
was very stylized and quite a
experience to look at. the
voicework was fitting, though
did become obnoxious at times,
yet i understand it is trying to
deliver an impact upon the
viewer. i have to say it was
f***ing powerful and nicely
made, good job!

[Grim Reaper Show 5]

so-so

the dialogue was pretty
creative and bizzare, though
the humor didnt quite appeal
to me as much. the visuals
were only subpar and the
voice was bland and boring.
otherwise great writing and
unique series.
