Michelangelo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hyperboy: Episode 2]

solid movie

i must say that that was
entertaining, when you
give it a chance. the animation
was simplistic, but light hearted
and comedic. love the facial
expressions; similair to synj's
work. the music and voicework
wasnt too shabby, especially
the showdown scene with
music playing from kill bill;
or the music the movie used
for reference. viewers shouldnt
complain about the lack of storyline
and plot because it is a comedy. which
most comedy dont have one because it
relies on humor rather then deep, thought
provoking scenes. though how is it that
inuyasha is overrated too?
:P (inuyasha fan)
score:
not bad, in fact i liked it.

[A Boy & His Vision Quest]

not too shabby

ok:
the story wasnt that impressive,
but for what it was, it works. though
the animation was rough and the
visuals were sketchy. music was
however fitting and appropiate.
though, with a title like this, i
kinda expected it to be more
artistic in looks.
score:
not bad, in fact i liked it.

[Kermit Kombat 2 ep 3]

medicore

so-so:
why do i keep thinking of kert
kubane when i watch this...
anyway...
the visuals were medicore and
were dragging at a slow pace at
times. some of the scenes seemed
to be longer then what they should of
been. the voicework was okay, the only
good parts were kermit the frogs, and
macho man that use to do the beef jerky
commercials; nice cameo appearence. the
rest were just montous and boring. which
coincidentally can be said for the scenes
too. though i would say that bob the cats
slurs were somewhat humourous. if you
were to do another sequel, just please
dont make it as long as it was. its just
not that necessary, even if most dont
have add. it wouldnt be that big of an
issue if the scenes werent that tedious
and boring. also, something bugs me
about the graphics. they werent bad,
but the whole look of using tools to do
the drawings rather then hand drawing them
just seems synthetic. guess its my taste in
animation, but not that big of a deal.
score:

[A Ball's Tale]

medicore

so-so:
i guess its original in terms that
i havent seen it before, but it
wasnt that funny or creative.
the accent to the voicework was
likable and the visuals were simplistic,
but had a sharp, clean look to it. if it
were a bit more creative in content
and humor department, it wouldnt
have been more then a average movie.
'nothing too new or interesting' is the
best way to sum it up.
score:

[ClogBot]

lacking

meh:
not that new or interesting.
i did like the artistic flare
and the smooth colors. the
audio and animation was
simplistic, but fitting; very
remeniscent to the jetsons.
just needs something amazing
or original to grab viewers
attention.

[Sweet Mother of Vartan]

booyah

great:
i marvel and envy this work.
the animation is so smooth,
crisp, clean, refined, and etc.
the voicework was clear and
adds more personality to the
awesome caricature designs.
especially the huge, heavy
wieght boxer that resembled
an ape with his features, which
is appropiate to show off his
testosterone and brutality.
also the mario look-a-like
underdog further makes this
movie great. the ending seemed
predictable, but the whole title
was enjoying and charming to
watch, with gorgeous animation.
hope to see more works of yours.
score:
****
kudos,

[CI: Unregulated]

solid movie

though i was hoping it had to
do more with the combat instinct
storyline and style of the original
game, but still good none the less.
i will admit that visually, it was
gorgeous; however, it wasnt that
amazing in content. i did like the
space dog fighting with the missles,
guns blazing, explosions, kamikaze,
and etc. very impressive how you
shot it. though nothing much happened
story wise and this isnt exactly original.
its slick in presentaion and quality, but
not stylish in content; sorry for the
redundancy.
besides the point, the audio
was fitting, especially since
it is techno with a frentic beat
and pace. it did get a little
monotous at times, but not
that big of a deal. also, the
ability to fastward and rewind
the scenes make this the most
interactive movie on this site.
i dont think i have never seen
that ability before. of course there
has been the ability to skip scenes,
but i can get to the precise and exact
part that i want.
overall it was really good and i
know some would beg to differ
from what i said. just wish you
would release another kick ass
game in the shallow, fps, scroller
shooter on this site.

[Taegukgi]

solid, but...

for what it was, it was great.
the animation was smooth;
the on screen action is
fast paced and frentic. i
loved all of the frenzied
commotion and chaotic
battles. the little detials,
such as smog and debris
on the screen, make this
title even better. this is
very A grade quality
professionalism; however,
this is only average due to
the fact its a stick animation.
its very unpealing and not
that impressive to look at
stick figures. in fact, stick
figures are the lowest form
of art and keep some titles
from being perfect. next time,
just try to make full body
characters, which shouldnt
be hard for you since you
have put so much work into
everything else. whether it
be cartoony, realistic, anime,
or anything will be better then
the overused and unoriginal
genre of sticks. stick figures
are for five year olds, you can
do better.

[Gallio - Fishing]

nice message

solid:
though this was more of
a message, rather then it
trying to deliever a story;
for the few that didnt get
why he found a carcass.
besides the important
meaning of the title, the
animation was good. like
how it was simplistic, but
in a story book visual
fashion. very slick and
appealing to the eye. a
little on the short side,
but it works.
