Well, I hate u too ;) Just kidind i must say that my profile is old and I changed it. The reviews are old too so...maybe its a new start...
the title is the animation
this is a very deep meaningful flash, u really gota get this seen to man. people who make flash like this usual need help. but none the less this is a good flash i jst wanted the guitar backing 2 kick in2 sumthinh rather than the same repetativness, but i guess that adds 2 it. very deep very meaningful very good score should be given.

Not a bad movie. I like movies that use different shades of black, white, and grays. They set a tone. The character's design was not bad, some of the movements could of been a little smoother. Nice use of the background music.

A nicely done artistic movie.
Depression can be a very serious issue in life - and you portayed it nicely in this movie. Although it took me a couple watchings of the movie to fully catch all the metaphors and symbolism you added in this movie, I enjoying watching it.
Graphics: Entirely black and white - VERY fitting for a movie of this variety. I mean, that right there is, in my mind, one of the most important symbols this movie presents. Although the animation was a bit simplistic (A lot of zooms and background shifts), it was still very effective in showing the overall theme of the movie. Nice job with the graphics. 8/10.
Sound: You chose a fitting song for this movie. The guitar chords fluctuated very well with what was happening in the movie. Although the only sound effects I heard were the TV static and the low rumbling noise at the end, this effect is very useful when it comes to setting the mood for this movie. Another nice job with the sound. 8/10.
Interactivity: Play - and it loops to the beginning for a replay. Movies like this one don't need interactivity, though. 0/10.
Style: Everything you used in this movie to methaphoricly describe the effects of depression flowed together very, very well. The empty swing, with the very brief flashing of a person on it, was one of my favorite effects in the movie. In the beginning, I noticed the residence of the major focus of the movie was not kept up and dirty - a harbinger of the things to come. The TV with the static was a nice touch, and when you put the final scene on that same TV, that wrapped up an impressive stylistic effort very nicely. 9/10.
Violence: The ending, that's about it. 3/10.
Humor: None whatsoever. This is definately not meant to be funny. 0/10.
Overall: A well-done portrayal of depression. It might have gotten an 8 or 9 had you added a few things - perhaps you could show a few more of the things that led to the person's depression, for example. Still, nicely done, and very thought-provoking. I will be looking forward to more work from you. 7+/10.
Miscellaneous: From what I can gather, this was meant as a way to show some of the things you are going through/went through (I gathered this from the ending comment, if I am wrong, I apologize) - I mean, I've been depressed before (Not extremely) and things just feel... insignificant and hopeless. It's a hard feeling to accurately describe, and you've done it nicely.
Final Verdict: If you are looking for something violent or funny, this is not it. This is a stylistic movie, and in that aspect, it excels. I would definately recommend this movie if you are looking for something that is not standard NG fare. Nice work - this is one of the few Flash movie that has actually gotten some kind of emotional reaction from me. I liked this movie.

Well thanks u! :)
Good job
The animations are really simple, but the drawings and story are good enough for that to not be a problem.
I find it interesting the way the character imagines the clown as a psycho.
You've obviously put a lot of thought into this and it really pays off.
