Review by Zerg-Spirit
Summary:
One of the best Quake3' movie I've seen. I see it as a tribute to all those players that we followed in their competitions during the old days of Quake3 (even if some frag sequence are quiet young=). I really waited for that kind movie so this is surely the movie I would recommand to a friend that doesn't know Quake3.

Creativity: 7
Some frags are already well known, but some were forgotten and it's always nice to see some classic sequence when it's nicely packaged. The movie isn't really 'creative' but very 'efficience' in what it supposed to be: a tribute to the best Quake3 players.


Editing: 9
The sync with the music is really nice, almost the whole movie is synced, and the Rails sync on the Rock music part is great. There's is no very worked visual effect and recam, but I think it would have been bad in such a vid, where only frags matter.


Content: 10
I think the content is prolly the best I've seen. It shows the best moment of the bigest competition in Quake3. Some frags are already well known, but some were forgotten and some others new, and it's always nice to see some classic sequence when it's nicely packaged. All theses sequences are great, Quad Runs, Air roxs, amazing rails. It's really the strong point of that movie.

Quality: 8
The quality isn't great, but is quiet good. I would say that it's perhaps a little bit too Dark, but it's not really annoying. The filesize isn't the thing I'm looking at when I'm dling a movie, but I think it worths its 161mo.


Overall: 8
Let's wait for a Q3fuel2?
As I said, prolly one of the best movie I've seen so far, and surely the movie I was waiting for. It really made me nostalgic of theses old times of Eurocup III to VI and CPLs.

Summary:
This movie is similar to many other movies, not bad but nothing really original, except that the frags are from pro players.

Creativity: 5
As stated, inspiratio ncame from many vids, and i think Just Quake was the main. Frags from pro players, but nothing more out of the ordinary.

Editing: 6
Nothing special here neither. Nice sync, but the editing is all about sync, nothing more (except the full name of the players). I mean in part2 you knew that next beat there would be an airshot, and then know what is gonna happen, that ruins a little the frag imo, because surprise is not there anymore.
Intro and outro were common, just nice idea to put the pics of the players themselves in the credits.
Nice choice for the music from beatlejuice, was original. Other songs were ok.

Content: 7
Some frags I had already seen, most of them never. They were against pro players, so that's good, but for most of them you can get much nicer frags in other vids.
Game config was ok, the green keel is not a wise choice btw, even if it is not bright.

Quality: 7
Quality was nice, but the filesize/length ratio was really not...

Overall: 6
Good vid of pro players if you don't watch many frag vids, but if you watch a lot, it is just an other video, except that it shows frags from pros, but Just Quake does that better.

Summary:
nice movie over all with a few things that bothered me, that wouldn't effect someone that hasn't seen a lot of quake 3 movies...

Creativity: 5
i liked how the full team names and the tournement was shown, looked professional.
cams were well done, even though the map fly through is dead, they were new maps i have never seen (mostly)

whole thing felt like a intro that you can see in almost all movies, but intros are some of the best parts...

Editing: 7
clean movie that makes no attempt at new effects or new ideas, this was presented like a trailer for quake 3 movies them selves. with the orcastra music and the nicely flowing cams and action. well synced


green keels but they had nice detail so they cancel out I suppose...

Content: 6
I wanted to give this a low score for all the repeated footage cause to me that is a big no-no.

but the footage that was used is great, some little funny parts and simple kills that just dont belong, but blues 3x i can watch all day..

Quality: 8
compression was high but so was quality, no sign of a HUD and most of the cfg quality was all there

Overall: 6
if you havn't seen fragged by mikes, just quake, annihiation...and the other ton of vids that this movie's frags came from (what the hell are you doing? go download them!) then this could be a nice watch

Summary:
Well, frags are not so impresive but good selection. Worth downloading!

Creativity: 6
I didnt like this vid because of ways camera is set. Vid is created in huge resolution and in some parts of vid you hardly can see players. Anyways... standard fragging and stufz like that. Couple of nice frags and that is. Standard vid!

Editing: 7
Colors are not so bad, but tooo... sharp for my taste!

Content: 6
Game config, poor I think, content, medium good... Nothing much unseen here!

Quality: 8
Quality is high... Althow without any reason I think but...

Overall: 7
Worth downloading, but dont hope to see some neat tricks or frags!
