Summary:
Im allways looking forward to see new videos.
In my eyes it was not worth the download.
No, i dont think so.

Creativity: 7
Nothing ordinary to find in this movie, just the same as seen before.

Editing: 7
The "music" sucked, a mix of havymetal and punkrock.
There where to much glow and shaking.

Content: 7
Its was some ok frags, but not something special.
The "muscle flash" on the weapons where not standart :(

Quality: 10
The quality was sooo damn good.

Overall: 8
Its an ok counter-strike movie, nothing new, nothing special, just another movie in my eyes.

Summary:
Starts with the arbitrary shine intro that turns into something a little extraordinary as far as cs movies go

Creativity: 7
As far as this goes, the only thing that was out of the ordinary was the use of 3d models made using whatever that were put to good use and the faded multitrack effects during the first song. Woulda rated higher had there been some ingame sounds but it could be worse, could be a zetuz production =/

Editing: 8
The first song was very well synced and a lot of clutter was cut from the movie so you were just mainly watching frags which is a good thing =) The effects in particular, the opacity + multitracks + zooming in to produce different images were nice though it seemed you always zoomed to the lower right to bring the focus on the gun. What sucks is the fact you used the csflicks nohud sprite pack that has some bad sprites in it like the muzzleflashes and bomb timers but other than that good job on removing the hud.

The part with the pan around to the breaking glass was a very nice touch. Though the fire at first seemed kinda out of place towards the end and after watching the video a 3rd time I realized it did have a place in the movie.

There were some good frags but a lot of the frags seemd to be a lot of just 2 frags where the first frag would be something kinda mediocre then the 2nd frag would be some hs. I'm not sure if I saw any aces or anything really insane that made me go "HOLY HELL!" though that rarely happens. As far as game configs go, it was pretty well done as you removed most of the hud along with hud_saytext so there's no random "HAHAHA THAT GUY IS SO RANDOM" or "OMFG THAT WAS BULLSHIT" so that was nice. As far as cs goes, there isn't much that you can do with ingame config.

Though the music was kinda weird, the first song was great then it's two metal songs that I couldn't get into for the movie.

Quality: 7
What can i say, the movie looked nice at a cost of about 32-33 megs per minute. It's a good thing the movie is short and it isn't so bad compared if you did 32-33 megs for a 15 minute video. (500 megs kthx ugh) You could have probably pulled it off only using 20 megs and the video woulda still looked nice.

Overall: 8
The movie was good, better than most movies I've seen. Only complaints are the filesize compared to quality and the shine intro that had newsprint with it.
