lenkalamari's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nintegaball GT: Ep. 1]

hmm..

I gotta give you props for ambition (nearly 20 minutes is a feat for a flash movie), and the music was nice and went well with things, but there were a lot of things that stopped me from enjoying this movie. i'm not the biggest fan of sprite movies, but i let a few slip by at times just 'cos i enjoy them. however, there were a lot of things with this flash that just didn't feel right.

- Close up shots - here's one of the disadvantages of working with sprites. If you zoom in any more than double, they look awful. you had loads of these sorts of shots in your movie, it might have helped if you made some original art for these parts or whatever.

-No action, mostly conversation that I had to read. I don't think many people wanna sit through Mario and friends talking in different locations about these Nintegaballs. How about a chase, an encounter with a lowly foe, or just Mario and Luigi sparring to give off the idea that they're fighters?

-A few too many characters? You responded to another review about how opening episodes should play out, but most opening eps stick to introducing a much smaller cast.

many people have also said that its really similar to smbz, and I know its a parody but you could at least make it a little different. otherwise, why are people gonna watch this when they've watched 6 episodes of the exact same thing?

[FFVI - Who Is Gogo?]

pretty decent!

first off, drawings were really nice, could have been done with sprites but you made your own pictures (THANKS!). I really think it needs voice acting, it's hard to keep focus on a movie where you're clicking the mouse every ten seconds.

As for the writing, some jokes were great, the little references here and there were okay, but the Family Guy style 'breakoff' skits were a bit unneeded. i honestly thought the Thief scene etc. just felt a little...unneeded, you know?

drawings were pretty cool, but you could have slammed a bit more animation in there maybe?

[Surface]

hmmm..

sorry guys, but it didn't really cut it for me. i felt like i was watching some sort of semi-animated comic instead of a flash toon.

after seeing the action packed one gun, which had some pretty sweet animation, i know you guys can do a lot better than this. the artwork kinda felt rushed, and it kinda felt like i was watching a movie of someone playing a point-and-click game at times.

voice acting wasn't bad, but the cartoon relied a bit too much on the dialogue. your main character's only expression seemed to be a Cloud Strife style 'placid' when he should have shown shock, stress, anger, excitement etc.

[RWD: 010 Mario12]

Haha, what the hell!

So beautiful. I don't even care about your filthy lies about Sonic being in it.

[Valhalla Knights 2]

three years?

Wow, you've improved a lot. Really nice angles/backgrounds, voices were a little dull, music was ace. A bit too slow placed at times, especially since there wasn't much action.

gotta say you handled the nudity well too, it was kinda unnecessary but at least you did it tastefully. job's a good 'un!!

[Melons]

Haha, what the fuck

the way 'everyone cheer, melons are here' gets me every time.

[Anusboy]

YES

TOTALLY caught me off guard there. I was expecting generic superhero parody fare, instead I get some of the weirdest, craziest Flash animation ive ever seen in my entire life. absolutely mental.

[Walk in the Woods]

AWESOME.

Totally wasn't expecting any of that. That was just....wow.

really liked the visual effects going on.
