Bezman's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mortal Kombat: Mike Tyson]

Really nicely made, but the overall's subjective.

Basically, I thought it was really nice in terms of graphics, sound and presentation. You managed to make it look pretty much like the original game, and I liked the ending.

However, it never actually made me even smirk, let alone laugh.

So the overall score is based upon my personal sense of humour.

Not that bad.

Just that I didn't find it funny.

Like my numbers should point out, the graphics and style are decent and the sound is reasonable.

Basically I just didn't find this funny.

If the ball was supposed to be going really fast, you should have made it REALLY speed away from the guy's hands.

Also, a longer build-up would improve it as would basically more effects.

However, like me, you're probably still a beginner.

So be proud of the fact that this is decently made with decent graphics and sound effects, and go onto make better stuff.

[Squares]

Nice style.

I know frame by frame animation isn't exactly as rare as the dodo, but I haven't seen it done like this before.

This is probably easier to do than conventional frame by frame stuff (just a guess), but that doesn't stop it from looking great.

Something a bit longer with some sort of a better story or joke would definitely get a higher mark from me.

[Electronica 2]

Wasn't too impressed.

One minor flaw really brought down the mark - the way the movie goes so slowly when the good guys are walking in the auditorium.

You say that this version has a 'faster auditorium scene'. Well, it's still pretty slow.

If there was some funky music or something, it wouldn't be as bad, but it's just silent.

I like the fact that speech has those little arrows.

Onhe thing I would say - with future installment, don't make the death's so interesting. This is basically a Dragon's Lair type thing, and you mightwant to consider making the daeths stock things or something.

If you had an actual alternate way of doing things rather than just one correct option, that would also be nice.

For this movie, just sort out the auditorium scene and put in some more varied music.

[Electronica]

'Where the hell where you?'

Pretty good stuff. I dunno tho'... I'll have to see how it develops.

The starting text made me expect a more serious movie, almost in the tone of of Mind and Machine or something.

Well, the 'movie' was definitely interactive (I'd call it a game...) and the whole thing was reasonably made.

It was basically just the unexceptional plot that let it down.

Oh... and the spelling mistake also annoyed me.

[Squigo 4]

A disappointment after Squigo 3.

You sure are making these amazingly quickly!

To be honest, I was disappointed with the ending, as it seemed a bit too short, and there was only 1 (small) twist.

Also, I don't like the colour. Like I said for Squigo 2, that seems to sort of ruin the style.

Ah well...

I'll say this tho' - you really deserve your collection.

[Squigo 3]

This is brilliant!

The physics wasn't spot on, which might annoy a bertain other critic of Squigo 2 ;-P

Seriously tho', the sound is top notch, the graphics abd style are class and the plot rocks.

The last point was the thing that impressed me the most. Unpredictable, with loads and loads of different twists and stuff...

I honestly don't see how this could be much improved.

From here on, it's just subjective.
