In the way where you show how cruel war can be. With the sad music and slow motion.

This is good stuff.  A brave move doing the entire thing in slow-mo, but with that backing track it works okay.

Couple of things I think will improve your next video:  Firstly, and most importantly, you need to add more narrative.  While what you've got there is stylish and cool, there's really no plot, and even a few tiny "set-piece" bits where the viewer is clearly following a specific bit of action will make a lot of difference (note the people whose response indicated they were bored - a bit of narrative thrown in will help immensely with that problem).

I don't think there's much can be done about the jerkiness of the panning of the camera, but if it was possible to smooth it out, it'd help.

Credit your music!  The slow style and the Songhua setting give this a very 'Nam-esque feel to it, and using The Doors cements this, as so many people will immediately assosciate it with the opening of Apocalypse Now.  The music is so important to the overall success of this video that not crediting Jim is criminal....  In fact, now that I think about it, it's probably criminal in more than just an artistic way too... 

Anyway, hope those comments help with your next video, and well done.  It's good to see videos that have cinematic style in them, and aren't just about l33t skillz.

+1 coming your way.

Nice vid, made me think of Vietnam and, like mentioned above, Apocolypse Now
But, i was expecting something spectacular at the end though, not just some dudes face getting closer and closer.

Good vid dude! - bit long though...

My advise on the next one is to work on syncronizing some of the heavy drum-beats with the action on screen more, in tune with some big explosions... - you had an excellent track choice on this one, and would have added some to the vid.  But, all-in-all very good!

8/10

The movie, from my view was bad, here's why:

1. I felt no compasion for any characters because you developed no history for them.
2. A film is supposed to arc, like a book, your movie was ________________________.
3. To show how cruel war can be you dont have to do the entire film in slo-mo.

Go take a film class before you try to make a BF2 film with meaning.

I give it 2/10 because of the pretty shots, it was poor cinematography though, just pretty.

The video is structured and very little is random. Alot of the clips are placed in chronological order. It's hard to make a proper movie with the current software available.
Anyway, thanks for sharing your views.

Very good, different.
Kind of cinematic, I could imagine that being the end of a film where a squad makes a final stand.

Are you serious? It's called Final Cut Pro, some people edit full length films on it...
