Pretty cool
I really like your animation, i thought it was stiff at times and could use fluid to it. but overall its really good.
Reviews for "SIEGE"
Cool
It was pretty cool, but it seemed to me like an old school flash, you know some stuff like the cyclops head when it turns are a bit lame imo, and maybe you got a bit carried away with other details like the dragon's mouth when it roars after landing.
Anyway I like the style overall and most details are pretty well executed, just pointed out those 2 things i found a bit weird, nice flash x)
Eh...
I'm rather conflicted on what to say about this flash. The animation was both well done and unique and the music was superb. However, being a historian I was kinda annoyed by the fantasy elements. The Siege of Malta is one of my favorite battles in all of history and is in my opinion exciting enough to make a good flash without fantasy elements. Frankly I didn't have too much of a problem with the everything until the Lionman came out to slay the dragon, it just got a bit too ridiculous for me then. Also giving the Turks black and red eyes gave them an evil, almost demonic aura and this is definitely not an accurate or fair portrayal of the Ottomans. I know I've said more negative than positive things about this flash but overall I really enjoyed it. It was unique and fun to watch but was held back from its full potential by some childish elements. I would have given it a ten but for this reason and as such I give it an 8 and a 5/5.

Thanks for the detailed review :)
Being that i'm currently studying graphic design I wanted to focus on the 'look' of things so, rather than simply re-narrating history, i decided to Personify characters such as La Valette (who's courage is personified into his Lion-Form) and Dragut (Who's name reminds me of the word 'Drago' - a dragon - who's serpentine looks give a sense of danger).
Simply put, i didn't focus it for a 'history' class but for a 'design' class, but thanks again for the review :) Who knows, i might decided to work on another history-based animation and i'll keep these points for future projects :)
pretty good
bit short though and i dont think the siege of Malta was like 300. could have been much worse
but why?
starts of really good, then goes the same way 300 does.
Would have been much better without all the weird magic beasties appearing, if you already say this is meant to b the siege of malta.
But thats probably got to do with taste, cause except for that def. a good flash = P
