There wasnt anything fancy in terms of editing, but thats exactly what Id expect from a highlights video, it was what it was meant to be.
I actually found the music a quite refreshing break from the normal tracks people use, although there was the odd choice that wasnt quite right. Overall, excellent video. I only wonder how it would have ended if they had not been disqualified. 9.4 - GJ :D |

Creativity:
There is a pattern for this "one team - one tournament" concept. You executed it well. The underdog theme is used very often ( especially in real movies ), but its one of my favourite theme, because you can keep your fingers crossed for the team :) The transitions are simple most of the time. Its not a problem at all, but its not creative. The freecam scenes are good directed. Only 1 negative thing i realised: You show too many times the falling dead body exactly after the frag, and it slows down the movie, and ruins the feeling ( only if its used too often ). Rate:8 Content: The frags are good enough for a "one team - one tournament" movie. There are not too many effects, and its good in my point of view, because you, as a viewer, can cleanly follow what is happening at the time. I gave a 9, because there is only a few lan footage. Rate:9 Editing: The transitions are simple. You should use a bit more difficult transitions, which still look clean. So there is a difference between art and video editing. The "story" is well edited. The leadthorough between intro and mainpart is smooth, so you can easily join the story. A negative thing is that i couldnt read the texts near the end of the video without pauseing the play. Maybe i read too slow ?! Rate:8 Music: I dont really like when the music changes too often, because it doesnt let you to live your feelings. But i know, that you separated the matches with the music. Thats a good idea (+). The musicstyle is not my favourite, but it fits for a fresh and dynamic movie. Rate:8 Quality: I cant say anything special: its topquality :). Sound- and videoquality is excellent. Only the fonts at the end are a bit uggly/funny. Rate:10 |

funky stuff ... well done! this content would need more time to present
it, so it doesn't get to nervous at all! 2fast switches between the matches... but i really like this one. especially the intro.. kind of "Rocky"-like |

amazing highlights movie! the soundtrack was very sweet, the editing was superb exactly the editing i like in movies (not only in highlights movies!!) and the frags were also really nice if you think about the fact that it was lan frags only. well, only thing i didn't like were the colors most of the time but meh, think thats just me. all in all this is a really good movie! hope to see more from the producer!
PS: I would love to get a download link somehow :PP |

As I had seen this on youtube before this movie has become one of my favourite ones.
Really nice editing, good frags, some really sick smoothes and actually the kind of music I also hear in my "freetime" . Just a really good movie in my opinion, nicely done. 9.6 from me |

frags are nice, colors were too bright for me, smooth were great, text were great too.
Honestly i didn't saw some problems but I didn't get deeper inside of it that's why a 8,6 sounds good for me / |

Cant give this movie anything less. Knowing all the effort that went into the clip and the ability to make it flawless considering the length, this movie was just next level.

I think people are rating this a little too high tbh. It's great as a highlight movie, and the the frags are enjoyable. But cmon, how is this creative? I mean, yeah it's very difficult to actually be or do something creative in a highlight movie, but doesnt mean you have to overrate that part. As said, the frags are very nice, on LAN and against decent players. I know that not all of the frags are super duper hard stuff, as some of were fillout-frags (I guess), but getting content for a 10 min movie, on 1 single LAN, is pretty awesome. Thumps for that, Xplicit. The editing itself was fitting, but nothing outstanding, also the colors were a little boring and unfitting imo. The music was very good, nice choices there. So all in all, decent movie, one of the better, but nothing outstanding for me, at all.

Video Review ◄
First off I'd like to say that for a lan movie i was impressed by the quality of the in game footage. Being a team movie featuring an unknown team called "XPLICIT", you wouldn't expect such ridiculous frags.
On that note i would like to say that i totally liked the soundtrack though it got a bit repetitive - but i liked the energy and pace that was created by the tune.
The quality was okay in this case though it could have been way better. The editor obviously did not take his time for this movie because of releasing it only 2 months after i39 finished. Pete did an astounding job at syncing the take downs and other frags but that was just not enough for my taste.
Overall the editor gets one thumb up from my side. I hope he will deliver in the future.
