I'll upload it somewhere proper and give you the link when I'm done.

Opinions - shit effect after shit effect. It seems to me that you just wanted to try the different effects that the video editor had to offer, which is fine. But you can't use every single one if you want to release a serious movie. The action was difficult to see with these different 'video overlays' but without it, the action seemed fine, no jerkiness or anything. I must say that the original sniper crosshair is horrid, and makes me vomit inside my mouth everytime I see it. I didn't finish the movie. That's how much the effects annoyed me.

Yes, It is to much of the effects and changes alot i know. The original scoop is the best and will allways be after my opinion. I will start to reedit the movie and make it longer and not all does effects but the effects makes it kinda cool looking at.

Giving headaches is not very wise if you are going to add effects. But I think the same as Clown, a test.

I would take 90% of them off, the rest reduce its length to a half (meaning, only the important part of the clip) and to some, make them faster (like those zoom in's... so slow it's only good to give a bit tension or show a very good planned move; though, it's hard to have good tempo there, the music should do part of the job too).
And... I would have never downloaded it if I was warned that the clip contains 15 seconds of color bars. Useless. But if you insist on putting them, they should be at the beginning, with the audio tone (to share the standard with TV stations) and just a couple of seconds...

Doesn need to be in the start, but yes it is way to long time and i think i have answered you on the rest since you almost have the same opinion as Clown.

And thanks for what you recomended.

well, i think its quite good, especially if you are aware of the fact that its his first movie.. (is it?)

Yea, too many effects used... every 3rd or 4th effect is the limit imho.. no bad music tho.. and the font have to be edited ofc.

Still important to take care of:
-synch sound/music to vid! It changes a 3rdclassbackdoorproduction to a 1a hollywood actionthriller...

Go on, i see potential
