Well, I'll be honest. That was odd.
The sets and props looked great, but there was something off in the colour timing to me. Everyone had thick black lines around them, and some of the visuals were just... odd. (I downloaded the original file)
Events, as you say, definitely unfolded.

Absolutely loved this. I know I shouldn't appear partisan, but this has to be my favourite piece of Moviestorm work yet. OK, so I'm a sucker for anything with airships in, but I really liked the visual style, the story, the characters, the sound, and everything. The effects shots were superb, the pacing was perfect... and the closing sequence actually, literally, gave me goosebumps. oh, I'd better shut up before people start asking you how much you paid me.

Absolutely first-rate!

Technically and visually, this is top notch Moviestorm machinima. The set design and the environment are vivid, believable and absorbing. The camera work was very cinematic and at times you really just got that perfect shot. *jealous*

I particularly enjoyed the little FX details which don't necessary scream "look at me", but are complementary. It's obviously a lot of work for a few seconds, but they add a lot to the overall feel and they are worth it.

Wow its so pretty! I love the sets, the voices, the lighting, the story...everything! Beautifully done!

Great evocation of the airship, and a very complete story in such short time frame - Kate

I was going into this expecting a lot but felt dissapointed. After watching Clockwork, I thought your next piece would be even better, but this just didn't quite hit that par of which Clockwork did for me. I'm dissapointed, but I can tell you put work into this and thats what matters.

I thought the visuals were good, but the cel shaded effect in this kind of film, they weren't needed (in my opinion)...it would of been fine without them, I just don't understand why this had to be cel-shaded, they just felt unnessecary but thats how you felt it should be and I respect that opinion seeing as you are the director of this. Another problem was some elements of the plot, they just seemed...out of place and didn't fit, like the one pilot and the unusual behavior of the guard.

However top notch directing with great sets and props. Nice voice acting from the cast and some good music also. I personally prefer 'Clockwork' to this, and with Cloud Angel's problems, it's still a good film, and you can tell how much work was put into this. I'm sure your next film will be enjoyable and I look forward to seeing it, but to round this one up overall, it's just a good film.

★★★★✩ - 4 Stars

OH! BRAVO!! Really well crafted production standards! I liked the cel shaded look. This was a great follow-up from Clockwork. Ice - you've done it again! Visually stunning, great writing, sound and superb voice acting.

A spectacular piece of work. The custom content throughout this film is jaw-dropping, the VO is strong throughout (as I've come to expect in your work). The only area where I think this film suffered a bit was the story in the middle. Very nice beginning, setting the stage; a shock-tastic ending that gave me goosebumps. But there were some cohesion problems in the middle that were so severe it almost derailed the whole thing for me. In particular, I found the reactions to the first "event" to be way WAY too low key; even uptight passengers should have been in a panic. And in other sections, things just seemed to drag, a fair share of inane conversation that didn't further the story.

Perhaps those weak spots stood out to me so starkly because Clockwork is so utterly on task in that department.

In any case, this is easily the most visually captivating piece of Moviestorm machinima created to-date, populated with some real moments of genius. Bravo, IceAxe!

I loved this movie, but the villain didn't suffer enough for his crimes, make him suffer I say.

Great lighting and a completely unexpected plot twist.
