First of all, people giving this movie a 10. Explain what the
fuck your thinking. Quickly moving on, here we have Erasus 2. The sequel to one of my favorite CS:Source movies of all time. With so much hype behind this, der4twu had some pressure trying to overcome the original. In my opinion, he has not succeeded. The frags I cannot complain about, they were top calibre vs top US and EU teams. The intro was pretty good, nothing new, however it still got me hyped for the fragpart. Which may I add, I was thoroughly disapointed with. Everything was too random, the editing style has been changed, more complex and less pleasing to the eye with (what it seems) random effects thrown in to complicate things even further. All too often a lot of the frags flew by so quickly, I had to go back to see what happened. This I did not like, as the original was fast, smooth and had suttle effects but still allowing you to see the quality frags throughout it all. The sync was also very disapointing, it seemed as though it was 'the law' to sync every beat to every frag. Making the editing look a complete mess at times. Not my cup of tea at all. The colours were OK but were nothing new. Plus, although limited, the colours in Erasus seemed to suit it much better. About 3 minutes in I felt like I needed to turn it off. Eventually I come to the outro, which (once again) was disapointing to say the least. In the original the outro (in my opinion) was its only flaw. Overall a pretty average movie for me. Good luck in future projects Der4twu. |

As soon as I heard Erasus 2 was coming out, I really couldn't
wait. The massive success of Erasus made this a high anticipated movie of 2009. Featuring once again some top frags of pro players through Europe and USA made this movie really show the skill of the best players out there. Then the editing was fast and you could tell a lot of work and effort had been put into this. Der4twu has really been ripping it up lately. All in all a fantastic production that rivals some of the best Source movies. |

Well, to start off, congrats to der4twu on completing a sequel
to Erasus! Gotta say I had multiple orgasms watching this movie. First, in the beginning the intro was intensifying, which helped set the mood for the rest of the movie. It went into the frag scenes sort of in a sketchy way, but it worked out okay. The song is pretty fast in the beginning, so der4twu synced it to the best of his ability, but that risked the full effect of the frags. The editing was great, but the frags got let down a bit. But since the frags are from top players, they got to be good hehe. When it got going, the song gradually slowed down giving the movie maker more leverage on syncing while being able to show off the frags. That part was done incredibly well, I must say. Then, it got to the quiet part of the song. I was not too fond of this part because it kind of just went through the frags with the song, and there really wasn't much too watch. After that little section, it got back into the great editing with the sweet syncing and so forth. Then the credits/outro were pretty decent, nothing spectacular. Next, to talk about "Creativity" and that stuff. Personally, creativity isn't that big of a point factor in movies. The overall for me is asking myself, "Was this movie enjoyable?". So yes, this movie was enjoyable, but because there is no rating for "enjoyability" I am just going to rate to rate it in the creativity section. I have to say, though, that der4twu's ability to sync so well is creative enough for me. It's his style and I love it. Finally, about the quality. I think the quality could have have been better; but this doesn't mean it wasn't good. Just saying it could have been better, but every movie can always have better quality so I'm not going to down rate for that. I thought the colours fit well with the movie, but in some parts the bluish-green gradient didn't really fit with the map. Nonetheless, I think these colours were quite nice and"fresh". Overall, great movie by der4twu, I think this movie was better than the first Erasus, and I think the remix of Erasus was hellllaaaa dank! Hope to see more work from you. |

The movie starts very nice with a cool fast part which I like
very much but the font and effects style of "AND" "DER4TWU presents" dont looks so good to me. Movie starts softly with an upcoming speed part -> that's my thang baby! It's cool that u used a remix version from Erasus and not a complete new song but this remix isn't my taste but no big minus point yesterday u said to me that brainwash was to fast but I saw here fast parts where my eyes don't get the intense of the scene. Some very hard and nice shots from good players but sometimes not so good shots... I know some harder actions from Pros ;) n1 movie but I'm lil bit disapointed from the creativity and in my eyes ERASUS 1 was better maybe it's the music itself which makes me feeling that the first part was better 8.6 gj mr.! |

This movie is a blast of creativity. Even though the intror
wasnt cinematographic, it did its job telling what the movie is about. Tha’s when the frags start kicking in. This is by far one of the best top players content ive ever seen. Moving on to the transitions, they are definitely one of the high keys of this movie. By being always very fast paced and full of movement, they never let the adrenaline stop. The quality of the final output was amazing, and was a pleasure to watch this movie. The syncing is also a great feature in this movie, and as expected from a movie by der4twu, its just intense and flawless. Every major beat is perfectly synced with a shot, cut, effect and transitions. Erasus certainly created a high expectation, but its sequel definitely was able to live up to them. Great job by der4twu! |

Nice intro really enervating, Love the Terrorists' fly, really
anticipated a lot. the entire movie showed the raw skill of the best players out there perfect slomo's or speed-ups. No doubt about the soundtrack, that's just 10/10. I missed a playerbar though, could've done something with nationalities or etc. Nice outro with classy text , definatly top notch movie. good job Der4twu |

gj der4twu, some cuts were a little too hard for my liking, and
the pace was a little too fast for my liking; apart from that a really enjoyable movie with some good editing, nice colours, and sick content. Still not sure if it lives up to the first, and the song has become slightly jaded even if it is a remix! Some of the titles looked a little bit rough in the intro/outro but didnt take much away, all in all a good movie and good successor to Erasus, gj |

I was really looking forward to Erasus 2, but was it really that
good? The frags are flawless, pure skill, and the editing sweet. But I cant really say that it lived up to the hype. Nonetheless, awesome movie. |

My personal review, I think this movie is great but unlike the
first movie this was expected. It felt too much like the first movie, and when der4twu released 'Erasus' it was an overnight success. A virtually unknown producer came in with an unused track and used alot of really great frags. When I saw this for the first time I expected most of it, and that element of surprise was kind of ruined. Good movie, but in my eyes not as good as the first movie given the time that it was released. |

I can definitely say I like the first one better. The problem
with this is the remix isn't as good and when you sync to the remix a lot of the kills aren't even too noticable they happen so quick. The editing and color settings were definitely the best part to this but the frags weren't as enjoyable. |

To start off I would like to congratulate der4twu for his first
production under Steamworks name. I loved the first Erasus movie that came out, and was in high anticipation for this to come out. Unfortunately when I saw that the same soundtrack, yet slightly remixed, was going to be used, I was somewhat disappointed. I agree that Erasus has been used to many frag movies (7 to be exact) but nonetheless this was done exceptionally well. Although there was no type of new ideas used in this film, the break style editing was done very nicely and everything synced perfectly. The frags were of the top players in the US/EU so giving it below a 9 would be illogical. Overall this was a great film and I can't wait for der4twu to produce another film. |

Great movie, sick frags from TOP players, which makes the content 10
The Intro wasn't that fantastic I was a lil bit dissapointed because the whole movie is full of creativity and the intro is so "standard" The synch was just as amazing as the clean but powerfull edit. The Soundtrack was very special but exactly my taste. The quality is sick but not the best, but overall one of the most entertaining movies so far! The outro was very calm and reflected this part of the song very well. GJ |

Video Review
Erasus 2 features the same caliber frags from top players from around the world as the original. The same sound soundtrack just slightly remixed, but whats different? The editing is a little more over the top here, and the break style editing early on is hardcore enough to leave the epileptic in a coma. Everything is moving so quickly that it almost looks glitchy, this over time left an uneasy feeling in my stomach :( Another thing here is that 'Erasus' has been used in way to many videos now, remixed or not it must be retired. The sync to the soundtracks was very good, at points too good as you don't have to sync every beat in the song. The big question is weather or not this video succeeds the original, and that I leave up to you.
