Farmin's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Harry and Terry - Episode 1 - Terry Turns Thirty]

It's pretty funny.

I quite enjoyed your toon, art was colorful and smooth, voice acting was great and the writing was smart and snappy. Animation got a bit weird the more i looked at it though, both characters had a weird constant swaying motion to them that became almost nauseating at times.
Perhaps try and use the hands more for gesturing and restrict body movement for when a more expressive action is needed, lip syncing was great though.
A solid 5 for you, hope to see more of the series!

["The Worst"]

I've watched it about 15 times now and still can't decide whether i like it or not.
I voted 5 because the animation is phenomenal and because it's broken my brain.
Cool shit.

[The Breaking Bad Show!]

Great animation! I would totally watch this version.
Gus' 'Viva Los Polos' was gold.
Definitely deserves top spot in a Breaking Bad collection.
Hope to see more!

[Paradoxophilia]

Like most people are saying it's a great animation but the voice recording is pretty bad.
The different recording quality between the two characters is distracting and there are several points where the blonde character's voice peaks and distorts which is also distracting.
Other than that it's a great cartoon and pretty funny.

[Contemplate Life]

Not really a comtemplation.....

I'm not much of a God person so i can't say i really connected with the overall message of your work.
I found the dialouge to be quite whiny and self-pitying to begin with and when it eventually developed to be a religious piece you lost me.
I suppose the main issue i had with the film is that the character is presented in such a negative light and the whole visual style is dark and depressing but when God eventually comes into the equation nothing really changes.
It's just this sort of downward spiral of depression that keeps going because this guy hasn't lived his life for God.
To me the guy just comes off as a rather boring and jaded human being who's life sucks because he doesn't do anything other than complain about how much his life sucks.
If he wasn't such a negative nancy, aimlessly wandering around waiting for his life to be improved by some sort of magical external force then maybe he'd look on the bright side a bit more.
And finally it's revealed that all of these problems will go away if the guy decides to love God...credit card debt included.
This is all just my opinion like your film is yours but i felt like you missed your mark with this film.
The drawings were nice but a bit inconsistent at times, some images were quite powerful and detailed while some were very plain and lacked the emotional force some other scenes had.
Music was quite suitible for the mood you were going for and your dialouge was paced pretty well between sections.

Getting people out of depression is not my mark.
Getting people to think about their life after death is my mark.
I'm sorry you don't think it's a contemplation but you did write a length review so you must have thought about something ;)
Thanks for your honest review

[Fish Puncher!]

At first i felt let down

I really thought it was going to be a guy beating a fish to death but i watched on in anticipation of fist meeting fish.
Turns out it was just a really great cartoon, the kind that doesn't really get made any more.
Loved the smooth animation, the comic timing and the whole simple saturday morning cartoon concept. 5/5 for you, keep up the great work!

[Dead Space Fail]

Lame

Most of the jokes were just isaac dying....suddenly.....which already happens in the game. Other than the random pelvic thrusting and punching of things i didn't really find any of the jokes good, well animated though. Bit of a wasted oportunity really as there's so much more you could pick apart in the games...oh well.

[Santa Saw Trap]

Kinda Weak

Voice acting was bad, especially the jigsaw voice.
Next time you do it, try speaking louder but not directly into the mic as to avoid the loud peaking sections.
Santas voice was ok but whenever he was in pain it was much softer than when he spoke which was kinda weird.
Climbing the wall was kinda pointless, could've just made the walls close faster and him climb without falling, would've had the same effect.
3 for effort though, there's some potential here.

[Tomas et la Fraise]

Great

The only clock movie I've ever enjoyed, really nice animation and so greatful it didn't have those irritating clock voices. Cheers

[Thwomps: The Movie]

I Dont Get it

I like the style of sprite movies, reminds me of the good old days when games didn't need a story line. I was interested to see if this could hold its own for 20 minutes but it just didn't do it for me. The humour was (as many have said) stale and milked for all it was worth. The only part that made me chuckle was Mario wanting to crush things all the time. Way too many jokes went for WAY too long, and it just made it frustrating to watch a joke i didn't find funny in the first place go for so long.
Ignoring the humour side of things its a very nicely presented flash, the effort put into this is fantastic and a treat to look at. The voice acting was nice too, sometimes strained but overall good.
Overall, the humour ruined it for me.
