Celebrating with Exploding Candy Canes {as you do}
I'm not quite sure if the title of the flash is actually relevant to the content in the flash, but I am presuming that the flash was created in celebration of 50 subscribers to your YouTube account.
It is of that typical likeable comic violence that is so adored throughout Newgrounds. It was a little funny, especially the twist at the end; it's easy to watch. Honestly I could watch more of it because it is simple, and actually clever and original, although it's nothing that hasn't been seen before. You could have added a lot more though. You could have made a parody of weapons and signature moves from the games you've incorporated the sound effects from, or added a variety of obscure obstacles; except for the candy cane, there is nothing that highlights this flash.
Graphically it is okay. You're not a total amateur, although drawing disorganised shapes does not quite show anybody that you can really draw. It does look a little pretty, but most of the time the shapes do not connect cleanly, however the animation is smooth.
What hurts this submission is the lack of detail, which adds to the lack of distinctiveness. You could have included many more things to see like clouds or birds. A flower and a tree alone, surrounded by a plain of nothingness does not make the place look earth like, and if you were trying to create some other world the result is boldly unamusing.
Your sound is quite acceptable though. Definitely using cheesy sound effects from games {eg. Jumping sound from Mario} and adding unblemished voices, which are really spunky, brings this flash to life. I like the backing of the Spanish Flea and it suited the flash. I suppose only a professional could do better.
The length is small and this is disappointing. It starts well and ends well, but the middle is dull and unexciting. However I would watch it again because the quality of the audio covers this bland flash with a cool shimmer. Anybody who just wants to see something completely ridiculous wouldn't be too disappointed in watching this.
Overall it is like an ugly dog that is cute because it makes funny noises. Unremarkable, but far from impoverished. The visuals just don't make the highest grade but it's not something to be ashamed off; the static objects look decent enough. When this was under judgement I protected you and it's nice to see your submitting more and more stuff to the portal, keep them coming. And congratulations on 50 subscribers - I've watched over 5000 YouTube videos {which is beginning to scare me} so I'll take a look at your stuff sometime.

Thank you for the read :) this wasn't exactly my magnum opus, but I had fun working on it, and I will take all your suggestions to consideration. I'll pay a li'l more attention to detail, pretty that dog up a bit.
haha
it was a goofy kinda flash but i like thoes the voices fit the nature of it and it was an all around good one
Thanks for the review :D
the ending
Great ending dude for that ending alone it gets a +3 and the other stuff along with the good SFX and character actions make it fairly funny
I had a fun time adding sfx to this one, really gave it some extra flavor. Thanks!
Well done
The cuteness of the characters, and the good sound effects really made this flash what it was. That, end the candy cane pipe bomb. :P
I saw no zombies swarming to that candy cane :P
