Awez's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[ZAL♾️PA from the Past (Madness Day 2024)]

Genuinely one of my favorite Madness animations to come out this year. Incredibly creative, weird, and irreverent, it's a proper 'Newgrounds style' cartoon. Huge fan of the mixed media elements and wild compositing style. It's a wild assault on my senses and I'm 100% there for it

Quiffer responds:

Thank you for such a heartfelt review. I will try to do better next time and raise the bar of quality. This Madness Day was a truly amazing experience for me.

[MADNESS: Operation X.]

The concept of this is hilarious! I love the reference to the muskrat's hair transplant, killer work. All it's missing is better sound design

50Steaks responds:

This is actually kinda fair, but the soundpack is ripped from the official madness sounds so I excused that lol

[Vigilante]

I really dig the style

General-D responds:

thanks!

[I Smoked The Madness Weed]

This is fuckin hilarious, I love it! My only critique is there should be more sound variety

jOnline responds:

Fair criticism; I was crunching at the last minute to get this out and sound effects were the last thing I did so they got rushed as hell

[Lost in Hell]

This trailer is incredible! Super stylish stuff, I'll be sure to try it out ;)

Alucard responds:

Hey, thank you so much for your response!
Glad that you found it stylish oof
Must admit that when edditing the colors, there was always this search for a green aspect...
sometimes purple outside with fog, and heavy blue lights from the sky!
The character feel alive one time you get the hang of it, there's plenty of stuff to interact!
Hope you dig into the concept and finish/beat the game to it's end, because it's very extent kek
The launch will be 8th of July, it will cost 5 dollats - hope to see you there, bye bye!!

[Evangelion Collab]

This is fuckin hysterical, you all did a great job. You guys gotta get me on one of these collabs in the future!

Thriftman responds:

Swag

[Gurofriends]

I didn't like it at first but this animation has really been growing on me, I've watched it like 3 times now and I've come to really appreciate the style and pacing. There are some super interesting choices in the choreography which I love. Watching it almost feels dirty, there's a really nice feeling of filth this evokes and I mean that in the best way possible. Keep up the great work.

agent-cn responds:

yeah I can see why you won't like it at first; the earlier sections of it lack the fluidity in movement and pacing seen later on. I tried to compensate for that lack of skill in that area by adding some details, but I'm still glad you came to appreciate it in a 'beauty in ugly' kind of way

[Duel Island]

Incredible work dude. (not including our duel smh)

Buranch responds:

we still haven't finished it(

[Ukrainian hundreds]

Really good animation! I enjoyed the attention to detail in a lot of the scenes and the character acting is pretty entertaining. The choreography is crazy and I like it. Nice music as well! The backgrounds are interestingly shaped but kind of underwhelming, I wish they had some more detail. It might seem like a nitpick, but if you can please get rid of the frame interlacing, it's super distracting.

5LEO5 responds:

Yo, thank you I'm very honored. the YouTube version does not have this problem with frames, I do not know why it happened. Thank you again

[Project Creber: Extrication Part 1]

The animation was a little weak at first, but it really picked up as it went along! I adored the big battle scenes where both sides were taking casualties rather than just one dude slaughtering a ton of guys. Nice stuff, I'm curious where this'll go in the future.

Potke responds:

Yeaah, I know. That whole intro sequence could have been shorter, but I originally planned for it to be a 10 minute animation, before splitting it into parts, so that longer intro had more sense back then. Still, thanks for giving it a chance and watching the whole thing, glad you liked it!
