Michelangelo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pizza Guys 2]

booyah!

nicely done and well made animation.
humor is very appealing and original
and the visuals have improved drastically
over the last episode. the voicework really
improves the characters unique personalities
and it would be pleasent to see another sequel;
because this is what most cartoons should try
be like.
score: ****
kudos,
Mj

zonzo responds:

Thanks for the good review. Maybe I'll see you at a mariners game sometime.

[Penguins]

meh

its a pointless animation.
the ending was probably the
only redemable quality of the
movie, polar bears having artistic
licence? the rest was only medicore
with lack luster visuals and a shallow
sense of humor, i know most would
disagree with me on this subject, but
im a little hard to impress when it comes
to humor.
score: **

koit responds:

Agreed, most of my animations are pointless. But hey-ho, that's how I like them to be.

[Noah - A Short Film]

okay?

hmm...not that i didnt
like this, but wasnt quite
as impressive as i thought
it would be. the animation
wasnt too shabby, but consisted
more of stills, rather then animtion.
the voicework gets the job done, but
seemed to lack any real talent to improve
the animation, though i would say the sfx
you hear in the background did enrich the
setting of the story. the only thing that this
cartoon has going for it, was the idea of
the box; however, this being a short, there
wasnt much info to ponder about, making
the whole idea a little cryptic. though i think
it might have to do something with ones
own inner happiness.

Thanks for your review:)

[Super Mario: Toads Rage 7]

meh

i didnt quite like this one.
it seemed to rely on humor
way too much then its original
violent episodes...well...this did
have violence of course, but it
seem to be shallow compared
to the lame humor. also, the voices
werent that astounding, but i guess thats
why you have that message before the
movie proceeded.

[Lambi 4]

solid animation

good:
that was pretty entertaining...
the idea was very original and light
hearted; however, it seemed a little
slow in some scenes and the music
was simplistic. though the visuals were
some of the sharpest that i have seen
and i google at them, has a very clean
and proffesional quality to it.
score:
***

Lambi responds:

thats a fair revie. thanks

[Storybook 2: gel]

humorous

booyah:
love the storybook fashion of it.
reminds me of the similiar skit on
"late night of conan'o brien". though
it wasnt a flash, doesnt mean it cant
be enjoyed...which is dissapointing
because most think that newgrounds
is only for animations, but it can be
used for any form of artwork too.
score:
****
kudos,
-Mj

Dustball responds:

I did make it in Flash. Glad you liked it!

[Milk Bandages]

medicore

ok:
though the humor was stale
and not that original, i got to
give you kudos points for the
fresh, crisp, smooth visuals
and good voicework. also, it
tickles my fancy to how similair
it is to the old fashioned commercials
or to that of ren and stimpy.
score:
**

mumbla responds:

thumbtacks are in my eyes

[Digital Freedom]

medicore

ok:
well, i like is charmable style,
but the visuals look horrendous.
music was very fitting too...
in matter of fact, why isnt it as
good as your xunmato episodes?
are you possible going to make
another becuase i enjoyed the
original, very reminscent to that
of trigun :P
score:
**
-Mj

Godlimations responds:

YES!!!!! a Xunmato fan!!! woohooo!! well as you can see... erhem.. I am in the process of making Xunmato ep2, and Xunmato the game with a friend :) you'll get your Xunmato!! Digital freedom was just something I did in 3 days for spare time. Xunmato will come out soon, in Gods timing, not ours :)

[Freak: Episode 2]

outstanding

subperb:
omg, that was impressive. no
offense to the FLU series, but
FLU series cant even hold a
light to this. the amount of work
you put into each episode is
astonishing and it truely shows.
the voicework sounds very
professional and the violence
is top notch. not only are the
graphics kick ass, the voicework
is very gritty and appropiate for
this title; has a great sense of
realisim. though i remember watching
this a year ago and if it takes a year
for the next episode to come out, then
so be it. it would be great to see this
sometime shorter then that, but whatever
it takes to see another subperb animation.
score:
*****
kudos,

mj

Evil-Dog responds:

FLU is pretty good, just lacks a lot of effort in each episodes...but they had released 2 complete series in the time we could release 2 episodes hehe their ambitions is clearly different than ours.

Thanks for the review dude

[LL - Hotel California]

solid movie

good:
i really dont understand what
people are complaining about
the song, but i could really care
less about it. your still able to
enjoy the cartoon regardlessly
without nickpicking at the content.
the visuals were smooth, crisp,
refined, and visually appleasing.
music choice was good and the
animation fits it perfectly despite
the complaints. its obvious you
guys put a lot of work into it and
it deserves the appropiate score;
however, it would of been nice to
see something more original from
you guys, then a collaberation that
clock crew did previously. i know you
guys are suppose to be the oppisite of
them, just like in bizzaro world, but
that doesnt mean you have to follow
them in thier shadow.
score:
not bad, in
fact i liked it.

Lock-Legion responds:

Thanks for the decent review,
But what most people dont know is that this collab has been in the works for over 7 months and has been stopped several times. In fact we were about half done the collab before let it B was even started! So the fact that the clocks made their movie a week before this was submitted is pure coincedence.
We go our own pace, if they make something then they do, but were not realted in any way for submission times.
