TESM's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[No Man's Land Flash Anime]

Not bad at all

A really stylized movie with some great fbf.

However, the story.plot of this piece is really lacking, and the main character is a 'cliche' hero' at best. However, the characters and how they looked look really good, which wasn't just hard-core anime, but a bit more serious, just how I like it.

the music got a bit repetative, but overall, everything looked pretty good. Some animation segments, such as the walking and the opening of the door looked kinda lame, but the shading and the backgrounds (and characters) looked really well done.

I stilll didn't quite understand what had happened, and overall, that hurt this piece. No voices was well used with something like this, but when you make no real connection with the character in any way, and it feels like you've sene that character before, it's just not the same.

But this really looks like it could go somewhere. the crow animation in the beginning looked great, and I'm glad you made such a serious piece. keep up the great work, and work with story a bit more. I know it's the first episode, so I won't be too critical, but do your best to really establish this as something that's better than the rest.

best of luck, and good work.
excellent shading.

Very well made...

but it just doesn't seem like it syncs with the music. More so, I would hear the music, but I always saw the animation as separate. This is one way to take you out of the movie, which was a bit disapointing.

The animation was smooth and clear, and overall, it just looked good. No errors technically, and the kirby mini-bosses always looked cool. Meta-knight isn't really a mini-boss, so I didn't care much if he was omitted from this.

No story, nothing really, can't get into it so much.

Like I said, the only problem was that even with both sets of music, it just feels like watching a silent animation, with music just there. It felt weird to watch. But a solid work with beautiful animation and a very good old-new kirby feel. Great job, but work with how music affects the whole performance. Anything can look great, but it's hard to make it feel great too.

nice work, but still a little bit to work on.

4/5

4.05/5.00 would be my official score. good work.

love it

the knox part and all was great.

another interesting slap-together that i just enjoy. good song with the menu and the sarcasm, oh I love it. each episode is a lovely dip of sarcasm. makes me laugh, especially your fans.

keep at it. great stuff, a noble (and stupid), noble (yet not as easy as it sounds), funny cause.

keep them coming.

great movie

We had talked about this, and I am still a bit embarrassed of my own voice. But this turned out real well, for the most part, wonderful backgrounds, but my all time favorite were the expressions. The looks and how they changed on christain's face were very nice to see. The music plays a big part in setting, and expressions were well done. Some things look a bit off, but nothing to take you out of the experience.(i.e a hand here and there... no big stuff (and the sidewalk, but that's hard angle)

The only down-side to the whole thing is the voices. Some are good, but sometimes, mostly mine, are off their mark, which I apologize.

However, I'm see you kept that cartoony scream in from the lunch scene, and everything just progressed nicely. Again, just to see each face work over time is quite nice.

A fantastic serious movie, and a terrible but usual chapter in human nature. Good serious movie-documentery. excellunt use of audio in the credits.

In the long run, this is a great movie, and much different than the usual "serious" stereotypical crap on NG. Excellent work, glad to help with input and voices.

not bad...

if it had a little more meaning, I'd give it the edge

animation was smooth, and use of sound wan't to bad, although i personally don't like the music.

mostly, the lack of plot, concept, or anything really, held this back. this is a beautiful looking submission, just... no meat to it.

good work, but do something... more fulfilling next time.
