This was a really weird as it doesn't fall under any of the normal frag vid catergories, the game is day of defeat as i don't play this game (or any on the 1.6 engine at that) this was a bit of a novelty , the name, quite comical it is was quite misleading, how ever once the movie kicked in it was quite apparent this man means business, and the business is killing, and he's very good at it, the frags in the video and above average i would say!
How ever lets move on, the music quite varied, so i would say their is definetly something for everyone here, however i'd say it's not consistent enough and detracts feeling from the movie as a whole.
Onto to editing, as a movie maker myself this is one of things that i know a tad about, as opposed to things which could be considered personal prefernce, there don't seem to any really "stand out effects" which made me go wow! What i will say is that the editing was solid and even though unoriginal, the right kills were emphasized and it was well done through out, although the syncing was on and off, when it was done it was done well but i feel as if it was just placed there as a one off and that to have done ir more so would have taken to much time for maybe not the best looking film. but thats a personal prefernce again.
So to wrap this (long) review up, i liked it, but maybe work a bit harder on the synching and stick to one genre off music, and maybe use a more common screen size : i don't know anyone who use 1024 x 600, record at 1280 z 720 (widecreen 16:9) or 800 x 600 (4:3) , good res and looks better when you download it. I look forward to watching more.

Video Review
The introduction sets an almost wtf tone to the film, thankfully it is quickly followed up by a more suited soundtrack and an assortment of calibre frags. The addition of intermittent wireframe scenes was nice at first, however a bit overused. As the film carries on the soundtrack shifts once again to a rock ballad which fit well. The overall editing style of this film was simple and clean, with very little new ideas introduced throughout. In my honest opinon this film is carried by its content which unfortunately is often distracted by the random insertion of another run of the mill effect. Overall the film is solid, it lacks a certain level of creativity and the soundtrack is scattered at best. The content carries the film however and leaves you anxiously awaiting the next segment.
