This was a great video, maybe next time you could make a video like this with real figures.

Here mate. I've left your message on FI to read in your forum for this animation. Like i said, good improvement, but some serious work to be done to make it world class. 7/10 and what the heck! 5/5 :)

Good animation mate! But when I'm watching warmovies like this I rather see that the scenes are in some way combinaded togehter to some kind of story insted of some random street fighting. Makes good animation quiet uninteresting... Perhaps it's just me, but it's my opinion... And the sniper scene as many other reviewers have pointed onwas also imo way to long...

otherwise, GOOD!

PS: Please you very critical reviewers, it's wonderfull that you give criticism to the Author. It's the best help he can get for his future work! But please, don't put a zero stamp on a movie because it didn't exactly fell into your taste. Read the NG Review guidelines if you haven't!

You have animation talent. However, there are some points that really irked me because they made no sense whatsoever.

First, if they KNOW they're about to be entering a fierce battle, no sane man would EVER choose a pistol over an assault rifle. It's almost literally suicide, just as much as if he were playing Russian Roulette with three bullets in a six-shooter, and that's being generous. This isn't about a movie or a videogame, so that kind of lapse of judgement, and especially for someone in a command position, really grates on me.

Second, if he's going into this battle with explosions and assault rifle fire and all kinds of other noise, why did he bother with the suppressor? He's not infiltrating a quiet location, he's shooting a gun in the middle of a battle that has many guns being fired. Attaching the suppressor is actually counterproductive to him, as it slighly reduces the gun's overall punch, meaning that a shot that might just barely breach a person's armor could instead fail to do so, potentially resulting in Mr. Pistolier's death.

Finally, it was really ridiculous how that sniper simply wouldn't fire. Was it a moral crisis? If so, that should have been somehow portrayed through his expression or some kind of action other than a simple refusal to point the gun at someone and shoot. It would likely be more than enough to simply shoot the visible tops of his targets' heads, as the tremendous air-pressure generated by the bullets fired from the rifles used by military snipers should be enough to turn such a grazing blow into near-instantly lethal wound. It wasn't a clear shot, but it was clear enough that I feel that a professional sniper would have taken it.

Other than that, I didn't have any major problems with the movie. Keep up the good animation work and make sure to keep common-sense in mind if you make movies like this in the future.

I felt like this was a good animated flash, that musics been used a hella lot though, (dosent really bother me though) I didnt really feel any action happening, it was just quick fights, no grenades, no nothing....
4/5 10/10
(10/10 to balance the freak below me, god who cares even if this isnt fully acurate, its just a flash, not a documentary.)
btw favorited, because im looking forward to ur next flash, think it will be great)
