This is great! Your photography and lighting are very good. I like the color within the black and white. Lots of great production value. Very cool!

Also, the acting was good, great emoting. The cinematography was pretty good too, but a couple parts could have been improved...like the chase out of the billiards place...some more interesting angles could have been used.

One more good thing, the editing was great too. This one was a really good effort.

This one was pretty good. The lighting and color effects and the costumes were outstanding. Great job on that! The video quality was also good, as was the sound. The directing was also very great as were the locations and sets. Great quality.

The only gripes I have are that I didn't really feel a sense of direction or purpose...it was just a montage of events, and it was well done, but it didn't really have anything that grabbed me or hooked me...I didn't know where it was going. Great ad tho.

Great lighting techniques and awesome black and white effects. Take a look at mine and tell me what you think!

Good stuff guys!!

my only comment would be to cut short 1.5 seconds of where the 3 guys were wearing mask. (the little 1 second waiting time before he pulls down his mask was a little awkward)

But otherwise I love this mob war!! :)
