Reviews for "Madness Sl4ught3r (2008)"

... Just so you know in the future-

It was bad. Definitely not the worst I've seen, but it's still really bad. Nothing in this movie makes any sense. Ok well, let's get started then.
At the start, I see that you used MOVIE CLIP WALKING. This is a big "no-no". Stop being lazy and actually animate walking. You just took a movie clip and slid it across the stage. I also see that apparently, the head and the body are attached. Not "attached" as in connected as a limb, I mean they're both in one movie clip, you're supposed to animate them separately, not as a whole. Ok so he goes over and... grabs the other guy and throws him on the ground (?) Well for that, it was too choppily animated to comprehend what actually happened, but I'm sure if I'm correct, that he did throw him on the ground, that the guy would be able to at least get up and put up some sort of a fight. Or at least give a little more reaction. Speaking of reaction, I see it shows a big view of the building with a guy standing there. Umm, wait, he's just standing there.. Couldn't he have seen Hank take down the first guy? Couldn't he have seen Hank approach? What was preventing him from going inside? You have to give the characters more human, you gotta consider what's going on OFF the set stage, and consider people who are standing there. What they did, where they ran, who they called, something. You can't just have Hank shooting the place up, then the camera pans over to the other side of the room where there are a few people smoking cigars.
Now this is sort of a personal thing, but I hate seeing Krinkels' backgrounds used in tribute movies. I mean come on, at least give SOME originality and draw your own building. It's not that hard and it doesn't take too long either.
Ok anyway, so the actual action begins, yay, or... Not yay. It's animated badly, especially the feet. They are just slopped around, and not actually animated with organization. Ok I don't really know what to say about these next few parts, aside from just that they're animated choppy, and the characters are very stiff. It also doesn't make sense why the agents are killing EACH OTHER. I mean like... They're part of the 1337 crew, they wouldn't kill each other.
Ok so Hank get's a shot gun, then a zombie comes out of no where. (Seriously, quit with the randomosity, it would be much better if you animated it better, but it just doesn't work for this.) Any way, how does that shot gun blow the zombie's entire upper body off, yet when Hank shoots guards, they just suffer from a bullet wound?
Ok so this next part features even more choppy animation, etc, with little to know actual body movement. Then we got the auditor. Ok um, this is just horrible. Ok so you've taken advantage of the whole "animate the body along with the head so that no definition of body movement and proper reactions will be given" thing. I mean hell, they don't even move their heads. They just stand there like a statue while their arms are flailing around.
Then Jesus comes and bla bla bla, more choppy animation.

Okay overall, it sucked, the randomosity DID NOT work for this at all. It would have been much better if it were animated better. But you didn't give it a plot, or any thing original really, you drew like, two of those graphics, and that's it. You also used Krinkels' official characters. You couldn't have at least made your own characters? Hell, even Madness Interactive characters would be better than the regular ones. Also, stop animating the body completely attached to the head, give them some personality and proper reactions. Tilt the body when necessary, move the head back when necessary, any thing's better than having statues running around shooting each other.
And I have no sympathy at all for you, how you rushed it or it's your first madness. The point is, start something ahead of time, and actually take time to work on it. If you finish it before the deadline, take time to go back and revise things. And so what if this is your one of your first madness movies? That doesn't completely excuse you from proper criticism, take this review and learn from it.

This is what reviews should be more like. This was really helpful seeing how this was one of my first madness movies I have made.

Lol, Awesome

This was great, dude! I like the way the zombie limped XDXD anyways.... nice job. better that what i could do.....BY A LONG SHOT

not that great

in my opinion, i personnaly dont think that was to good. here are a few to to fix this movie/ make a new one.

1. do NOT, i repeat DO NOT join the heads and the bodies together.

2. when a character gets shot, group the body part and the blood together. (or convert them to symbols, or well u get it)

3.when i saw the auditor, it honeltly made me want 2 puke in my mouth. u completely left out the head, and made only the fire (shame).

4.trickys (the clowns) feet wheir REPEADEDLY dissapearing.

5.when the agent took out the 1911, you used the angled one, wich is incorrect.

overall, you did pretty good, and it was an enjoyable watch, aside from the flaws. you have the potential to make a good movie, because it seems as that u animate almost better than me. i hope to see more from u, because you do have the talent for something good. GOOD LUCK!

ZVCH responds:

Well this was one of my first Madness movies and the Auditor's head was there I don't see what you were talking about and I did realize that Tricky's feet kept disappearing. I had to rush this thing and I think I could have done a bit of a better job. The Hand issue you spoke about, well, I did every hand in that movie frame by frame. Each hand had it's own little layer. So I am glad you gave constructive criticism too this and it was a good review. Thank you.

Good, LITTLE details

hey its really good, just dont put the 10 becasue isnt so good as madness combat... So i had just 2 things that are not for 10, first keep practice until you can made better movement, and 2 start to write your own symbols,becuse here you get all from the mods that krinkels puts on his page, just start by making your own characters... to start writing your own graphic symbol... Great video anyway.

that was

thats preety much madness combat in a nutshell
