Motech's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Wife Beater]

Lovely.

I loved the black, white and red color scheme. Very stylish.
The contrast between the violence and the music was creepy, but I liked the ending. PAYBACK'S A BITCH!!!
Very nice.

[Stan! Cruise Control]

No, it doesn't make sense...

... Or make me laugh either. It's just a little weird cartoon. It's OK.

[(B) Running]

Not worth the 1758k file size...

It was quite boring to see two legs running, and then the leg broke to two (which was done quite poorly- something SHOULD'VE broken it). Once our runner hurt himself the ending was predictable with his superior demanding that he should keep running.
It gets a 4 for the file size. Maybe when I'll have cable modem I won't care for such things, but when I download 2mb files I expect them to be WOW.

[My name is Bill]

OK.

A few funny moments make this clip watchable. Biggest problem is the extreme lack of animation.

--Michael Bregman

[bitchy moms and pops]

Where's the ending?

This cartoon was funny and well done. Much better than "Da Stick Up", also by Luis. But just like "Da Stick Up", this movie fails with the ending. There's just no real punch line.

[Da Stick up]

Starts good, but crashes right away.

The biggest problem with this cartoon is the lack of any real ending.
Another is the lazimation. It wouldn't have taken too much effort to show the faces of the scared passengers. Even without animating it. Staring for a long time at one still picture with a voice over is simply boring.
Too bad, though, because the illustrations weren't too bad.

[Black & Reds - The Walk]

Nice punch-line

The movie was so-so, but the punchline was great and managed to take me by surprise.

--Michael Bregman

[Underdog Pimpin!!]

Very nice.

It was pretty cool. Smooth graphics, but the animation was a bit rough. There was also no real punch line or twist in the story. It was still nice, even though I never watched (or remember watching) Under Dog.

[buckshot episode 1]

Not really a game.

I don't buy the promise that this will be a real game eventually. It didn't show any potential to be a game, just a little movie parody about video games. That's OK.
The graphics were smooth, but there was nothing really spectacular or hilarious about the 3 choices.
It wasn't bad, though. Just not great.

--Michael Bregman

[Pigeons]

Lots of potential.

I really liked the illustrations, and most of the dialogue. But it still didn't quite work for me. The structure was a bit awkward and some parts would've worked better if they were more animated.
Still, a very original entry.
