LadyX's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Jersey Devil]

meh

the good:
the atmosphere is very dense and i liked, how you used the music very sparely. This way one was able to listen to all those other sounds you used; the footsteps, the sound the guy made when he was rubbing his fist in his hand, etc.
the graphics are very nice, too. even the backgrounds are very detailed and i really can imagine to walk through that forest in a dark and cold night...
the brutality fits in this flash (hey, it's a halloween submission, and it's called "jersey devil" for a reason, right?) and is presented in a good way. even here you graphics don't lack quality.

the bad:
i think you could have used even more sounds. maybe the howl of a wolf or an owl. it would have made the atmosphere even more dense.

the ugly:
a very nice halloween submission and i would like to learn more about the jersey devil ^^. the graphical violence is very excessive, but you presented it in a fitting way.
very good work!

[Yankeeville #2 - China...]

meh

the good:
the graphics are decent and the voice acting was good.
i liked the choices and they were realized pretty good.

the bad:
it was too short, more options are nessecary! :)

the ugly:
it is good as it is now, but just two choices aren't enough. add more choices to this and it will be much better.

[Oh canada]

meh

the good:
well, the story is quite funny.

the bad:
the graphics are horrible. the sticks look bad, even for sticks. the need more animations and shouldn't just stand there with their arms liftet high in the air.
also, some voice acting would have been nice.

the ugly:
first of all: don't use red colour for a person standing in front of a red background. this just looks bad. then, don't use "next"-buttons for speeches. just let the text stay on screen for a short time and then move on. even better is it to add voices to the flash. this way or the other, one doesn't have to click like mad to get on with the flash.

[UFO Abduction]

meh

the good:
the graphics look decent and the animations aren't that bad.
also, you had a plot. a thing not many flash artists seem to include into their flashes nowadays...

the bad:
but the animations could have used some more effort. the sheep could have at least moved its legs while running.
the lack of sound hurt this movie a lot.

the ugly:
this is a nice little flash movie, but with just some more effort this could have been much better. just add sound to it and i am sure you will get a better score.
then, work on the animations a little more (the sheep should move its legs) and try to make it a bit longer. maybe a little scene inside the ufo - or something similair - to add some more content.

[Elian - Wazzup!!!]

meh

the good:
i think this is hilarious. the whole thing is so random and the voice over is so misplaced in this picture that one can't help but to laugh.

the bad:
well, it's just this one picture...

the ugly:
as i said: it's just this one picture but i think it's more than enough. any more and i would die laughing! :D great!

[Idiots Anonymous - ep. 2]

meh

the good:
hey, it looks a lot better with some better backgrounds ^^. the voice acting is as good as in part 1 and the graphics haven't changeg, so they still look ok ;) .

the bad:
while it's not a bad movie it still lookes quite dated... which isn't very surprising, this was added over 7 years ago. but i rate it from todays standards, so...

the ugly:
better than part 1. you added some better looking backgrounds, they now really look like a wall. good movie!

[Idiots Anonymous - ep. 1]

meh

the good:
graphics are all right and the voice acting is good. and it's pretty funny ^^.

the bad:
the backgrounds are a bit lame. just a green wall.

the ugly:
it's very funny and i had to laugh a lot, but do something about that stupid green wall in the background ^^.

[MIKE NICOTENE (PREVIEW)]

meh

the good:
i liked the 3d graphics together with the 2d-characters. it somehow was quite interesting to see that.

the bad:
the characters need a cleanup. they looked pretty messed up and not very well drawn.

the ugly:
this is a very strange preview. one does not know what's going on the whole time and to add to the confusion, the music is very strange, too.
it is interesting, but i can't say that i like it. it's just too weird for me.
