Full review of Memento
made by Simon
Chapter 0 - The PremiseScripting: It was great, there are only some small things to touch on like the unnatural camera turn when the car goes beneath it, and the fact that what he walks past the camera we can clearly see that the focus is on his waist rather than his head. Thought I know how fucking hard that stuff can be and I'm impressed it looks as good as it does. Another thing to mention is that I would have liked more angles. Like cuts, instead of camera movement.
Editing: It's easy and it works great with the atmosphere you were trying to accomplish. It might be a tad dark when he walks in and the yellow arrow is a bit of a turnoff, but I know there's not much you can do there. Also the text, I don't know if there is a reason you decided to stack 4 lines on top of each other to the right side instead of just having it like normal subtitles. Other than that the editing was flawless and gave me some chills.
Soundtrack: Works like a charm, perfect for the atmosphere.
Overall rating: 8/10
Chapter 1 - The InspirationFloW (03:36 - 03:49) - Great and good looking stunt, kind of weak for an opener, but it works with the song.
Determined (03:49 - 04:03) - Great combo, always love seeing people mess around with these small roofs. Killer combo.
NuclearDeath (04:03 - 04:17) - Great idea, no idea how you thought of it.
FTO (04:17 - 04:31) - Not a big fan of landing vehicles on things smaller than they are, non the less good job.
Ghost (04:33 - 04:54) - No idea how people can stunt with mtb's, I'm even more impressed when people pull out combos like this.
Arnax (04:55 - 05:04) - More mtb stunts, It looks cool. Not sure if the heli was needed to land the roof or not, but I still like the look of it.
Plani (05:05 - 05:21) - Wasn't too impressed by this at first, but then you grinded around the whole thing and my hat was already off for you Mr.Plani.
Zangetsu (05:22 - 05:41) - I've seen this before, if not something similar, but the stylish flip thing on the landing was so dope
Corevil (05:45 - 05:53) - Oh man, this was great you never seize to amaze me with what you can do what that thing.
Killerstunter (05:53 - 06:06) - Great spot, great execution. Lovely stunt by you
Sheikah (06:06 - 06:13) - Looks like a fun stunt, kind of disappointing though.
Burn (06:13 - 06:22) - Great spot, but kind of half-assed in the execution department. Don't like those backwheel grinds.
Reynolds (06:22 - 06:28) - Pretty much the same as on Burns one, except it was a tad more important here as the second grind was kind of short.
iCy (06:28 - 06:47) - Great one, I was afraid the grind would be slow but somehow it had a decent enough speed to it. Great execution.
Grescha (06:47 - 07:17) - Oh you, you seem to take something impressive enough by itself and just add more to it. It's like "Oh I know what's going to happe... well fuck." Love it.
Editing: It was alright, nothing too fancy, but well enough.
Soundtrack: Alright. Not my cup of tea, but the editing kind of saved it.
Overall rating: 7/10
Chapter 2 - The KitschBalsam (07:25 - 07:41) - Sorry, but car grinds are not my thing, probably a hard one, but I just don't like how they look.
Darkstar (07:41 - 07:51) - Lol Simon, trying to stunt in san andreas? give it up already.
Izzeee (07:52 - 08:07) - Didn't look too tricky, but the landing looked slick
Caio (08:08 - 08:25) - Liked that mounting and that grind. The dismount wasn't as stylish though
Nauthiluz (08:25 - 08:52) - How the fuck? lol, great combo, however I felt the first part was kind of unnecessary as you just jump over to the other roof normally.
Diaz (08:53 - 09:12) - Another car grind, this one looked a tad better because of the wallride though.
Noah (09:12 - 09:26) - This looked great, if only you hadn't stopped and looked like a complete dustemikkel
Salyn (09:26 - 09:37) - Another great one, and man I love that landing. So stylish
Jeff (09:37 - 09:59) - This had me laughing out loud, seriously the most creative and stupid stunt I have seen in quite some while. Good job there Mr.Jeff
ScreaM (09:59 - 10:13) - An oldie, but a goldie.
Squeak (10:13 - 10:35) - I liked it, would have liked it more if you had just stopped up there instead of riding and doing that wallride though. But that's just me being stupid in my reasoning, great stunt.
UndeadX (10:35 - 10:49) - Great execution on a great stunt. For a little moment I was hoping for the top of that other building, but deep down I knew it wouldn't happen.
XtremeOmega (10:49 - 11:05) - Simple but great, the packer extended run up was a bit of a turn off but I guess there's nothing you can do.
MxZ (11:06 - 11:23) - Fantastic spot, no idea how you found it or nailed it, but great job there.
Editing: I wanted this to be really good, but nothing can really compare to ghosts edits to songs like these. It was enjoyable, but could have been better.
Soundtrack: Relaxing and cool, a bit dimmed by the editing, but a good choice.
Overall rating: 7/10
Chapter 3 - The PhlegmKtulu (11:39 - 11:52) - Bit disappointed, was hoping for some combo out of you, but a good p2b non the less.
MaCi (11:53 - 12:07) - Great rooftop usage and smooth looking bb grind plus an unnecessary stoppie when you landed. Why did you do that?
tomiBoy (12:08 - 12:16) - Crazy bump, no idea how you managed to get that height and that angle at the same time. Good job!
Promagic (12:17 - 12:27) - good looking stunt with a stupid ending.
ZeRo (12:28 - 12:44) - Great idea, I was crossing my fingers hoping you would land perfectly with the roof, when you didn't I was a bit disappointed, but almost lost my breath when you barely managed to stop. I gave you a short applause I must admit.
Dundee (12:45 - 12:59) - Was hoping for the roof, but I guess that's shit hard. Still one of the more stylish run ups. Love that stuff.
Smut (13:04 - 13:11) - Nice one, not a big fan of palm landing but this one looked cool. Good job on actually landing it kind of properly.
vmx (13:12 - 13:18) - Simple, but stylish. Love it
Roach (13:18 - 13:23) - Woah that stunt went by fast.
Was hoping that would go faster
TurBo (13:23 - 13:35) - Rolling over roofs to land on a final one. Smooth
Ode (13:35 - 13:41) - "Oh shit you're falling down from the roof!" "Chill dude, look, grind." Smooth as fuck grind dude. Respect
Requiem (13:42 - 13:49) - Woah the spins, kind of a silly grind, but the spins man. THE SPINS!
plak (13:50 - 14:00) - Kind of short first grind and a sketchy second grind, but you got your shit together and grinded it. Good job on that recovery
Edga (14:00 - 14:11) - That looked extremely fun, good job on that Mr. Edgar.
RyDeR (14:11 - 14:22) - Cool stunt, disliked the packer, but the landing made up for it.
Editing: No idea why you chose to have black and white, other than that it was good. Synced well.
Soundtrack: I think I Liked it, sounded happy so the black and white confused my feelings.
Overall rating: 7/10
Chapter 4 - The Mystery[Bart] (14:33 - 14:42) - Loved it man, great and powerful opener for the 4th part as well.
MtS (14:42 - 14:49) - Caught me off guard, loved it even if the grind was a tad short.
Artifex (14:51 - 14:58) - No idea how you got that spin, but I liked how you continued. Great job!
Cookie (14:59 - 15:05) - Dope stunt with a clean execution
Ulltra (15:06 - 15:14) - Love how you saved yourself there. Lovely execution
SkilZ (15:15 - 15:23) - Spinning down some roof and grinding. Good, though I think the grind could have been done better.
Scavenger (15:24 - 15:31) - Seen it before, still crazy
PtRvY (15:32 - 15:43) - Grind looks painfully slow, thank god for editing making that stunt look better than it should have.
Mugetsu (15:43 - 15:51) - Car grinds.. short car grinds... oh well nice bounce at least!
JustCaus3 (15:52 - 15:58) - I so wanted you to bump the sign and land the roof further back. I guess I can only wish. Lovely stunt and idea though. Must have been a pain
krs (15:58 - 16:08) - Lovely spot man, and that pole saved your ass
hiddeN (16:09 - 16:16) - What is he going to land here? oh, wow. Hats and pants off for you!
Rusch69 (16:17 - 16:29) - You really like that bump don't you? Didn't care for the grind though, looked terrible tbh.
PrzemOO (16:30 - 16:38) - Man I love this stunt, the way you hit the ship and just spin. It was so lovely I could have gone to bed with it.
Editing: Great, colors were something I don't think I've seen before but I enjoyed the hell out of them.
Soundtrack: Great, gave me a good feeling and gave the entire part a sweet atmosphere.
