Amazing graphics.
but kinda dull.
Reviews for "CI: Unregulated"
Credit as a Flash movie is unwarented.
I will not say that this is a bad movie, but it should not be deemed a 'revolutionary' Flash movie, but a sub par 3D Animation, or mediocre with the mediums combined. Although it is well put together, the native Flash imagrey is not of the highest quality(the fire, explosions and pilot), and the bitmap image quality is lowered by all of the scaling and rotating.
Where most reviewers seem to put there 10 out of 10 is the 3D effects. These are not produced in Flash, they are created in Milkshake 3D with a rotating camera. These images are rendered as a sequence at different angles, and put together , frame by frame, just like a video. His 3D models were alright, but this movie did not show any remarkable skill in Flash. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this site is to rate the ability of Flash artists, not those who happen to put one frame after another and call it hard work. I don't mean to say that the 3D modeling was crap, but give credit where credit is due.

I did not put one frame after another. The way you failed to see this proves that your judgement of flash skill is incorrect. The ships have individual parts motion tweened in a way to make it look 3D. IF i had made a new screenshot for each frame, file size would be gigantic.
Not bad, but not good either.
I disagree with what the admin said about this submission. It's not action packed hardly at all. Graphically stunning, meh I've seen better. You've got talent, just please try to make your entries less boring. The music didn't contribute much either.
Could've been much better.
It's obvious that you've got some good understanding of flash, and the movie was really awsome. But, it lacked good voice acting.
The voices were just so extremely... terrible. Sorry, but they were. That made the rest of the movie a whole lot less good. If the voices were okay, Sound would have been an 8 because the music was great!
Also, the graphics could have been a 10, only if the flames wouldn't have looked so stupid. They were like 2d spinning things.. :-/
Shame because the rest was really great.
Could've been a whole lot better :-(
background is too dazzling
look forward to the next one
