Reviews for The Good and The Evil

[Rhapsh]

Uplifting, even if I don't agree with the message.

Your flash is religous and about good and evil.

And, through your median, you got your point acrossed well. I appreciate that you submitted this flash for us, and it definately is well meaning. Overall, a good style, and your not that bad an animator either.

Now. Thats my review. Personally, I disagree with you and think life can't be that clear cut. Good and evil are never as obvious. Good deeds can be evil, and evil acts can lead to good. And while I agree with the violence assessment, the "drugs as evil" message instantly struck a cord as wrong. I shalln't defend anything here. But like I said, evil and good are never obvious, and are quite subjective.

Still an uplifting flash.

Thanks for the review. Personally the flash is more spiritual then religious, because I left out a God, he does go to a heaven.. but it is a place where everyone is happy and gets along while the dark hearted people are fighting.

You present a good point, life isn't as clear cut, but I only wanted to show one message.

awesome!

I'm not the most religous guy in the world, you can be a serial killer and go to church every Sunday, just because you read the bible doesn't mean your a good person.

This animation had a message that if you make the world a better place, you will go to heaven, some people may not believe in that. That doesn't mean you shouldn't do good things and make the world a better place, even if there is no heaven or hell.

For the movie, good animation, and the style and the way the whole message was told was a very interesting way to show it. The music choice was perfect, the symbols added style to it, just made it cooler and more interesting.

This movie was great, keep up the good work! 5/5

Kudos...

Could be a ten, I think this is a great peice because of the emotion this has brought out in the people that have reviewed it... You moved people in either a positive or negitive direction... and I think thats what art is all about..

You guys are reading waaaaay to much into this. There is a principle here, and you guys are succumbing to your analytic thoughts!
Esn said there was nothing about smoking in the bible, I don't think that was a cigarette, it looked more like bud to me.

As for the end, where the guys below him still beating each other up, think about it. I think the message there is no matter how much good one person can do, the world will never be rid of evil.
AND he didn't smile at them! It was the closing image!

Nice job.

That was sweet, I almost cried. Great work, I think the simple style helped enhance the impact of the story. Good job!
