Summary:
This video shows off great tricks but if you expect anything else from the video you will be dissapointed.

Creativity: 2
Did the
video contain anything out of the ordinary? Maybe that the movie uses 50 fps. This makes it more smooth. Yes 50 fps is better then 25, even if some people still claim there is no difference. Play a game with 25 fps on graphics high and then play it with 50 fps on graphics low and you will see theres a difference in smoothness. But back to the creativity rating:  What else do we have in here ? Some cameras(and i mean some) but cameras arent really creativie or hard to do anymore. Some cams are standard in a today movie so they dont influence my creativity rating. The intro has a littelbit creativity thats why i gave creativity a 2 instead of a 1.

Editing: 2
Was the footage synchronized with the music? How were the effects?
No the footage wasent really synchronized with the music and effects. And editing ? There was literally none. Some standard Cams, use of standard or no  transitions. Editing rating really cant be high when the editing is non existent.

Content: 10
Was there
some insane content?
Yes i think the content was pretty good. I think  above average for a Q3 trickjump movie(even if CPM allows for some more insane looking tricks).

Quality: 9
Was the
video crisp? Did you notice any quality defects? How was the quality for the
filesize of the video?
It could have been a bit more crispy but the quality was good for the filesize also cause 50 fps isent really easy to compress into a good filesize. So overall the Quality of this one is ok.

Overall: 6
Whats the
overall feel you got from watching this video? Would you keep this video?
The tricks made this move enjoyable to some point but it was hard to not get bored by the lack of editing and syncing. I wont keep this movie cause there are much better trickjumpmovies out there. This one is way below average. To watch the tricks is ok. But theres no beauty or atmosphere or anything else in this that would make you want to see this more then one time.

Summary:
"Legendary", the title of the movie even describes the video itself, setting a brilliant rate in colours, 50 fps and pure impression to the viewer. The 16 minutes were gone in seconds, i hated the instant when the outro came - damn you fei ;).  It's perfect down to the last detail, the music choice, the perfect quality and the breathtaking tricks by "mrworm".

10/10, no doubt


Creativity: 10
I just say colours, 50 fps, mrworm, fei and map-sphere. Now u shoulda know what im talking 'bout :P

Editing: 10
If u have seen fei's previous movies like "Get Quaked III" or "Unity" - and no doubt on that - they were all stuffed in the minutest detail with his editing-style(s). "Legendary" just shows a new standart - i quote killat0n :P - with 50fps, i never saw it before, and in addition to that, i really really like it at least for a Quake III Trick-Stunt movie, it just matches with the speed.

Content: 10
"mrworm", a better choice of a player also would not occur to me. I loved to see him flying through the maps and u getting the "wow" out of ur gob :))

Quality: 10
I wouldn't say "perfection", but at least it is closed to it. I downloaded the 400p version, great compression for 16 min. and ~310mb, beautiful colour-settings, ...nothing more to say :P

Overall: 10
It's perfect down to the last detail, now many of u cry "exaggerator", but i write down what im thinking. I watched it 6x times in a row and i never got boring or felt asleep :P

I can't remember how many movies i rated with a "10/10" - apart from faults in the rating-area because of me - but this one deserves it. Pure impression and relaxing moments to the viewer, extraordinary feeling when watching it.

Best wishes to an awesome movie fei, keep it up dude and good luck with the next one

...accept my thanks! :D  going once, going twice, going three times, sold!
