    Ooh, nice! I love the comic vibe. I'm not a fan of the logo though, I think it would look better with the official (obviously with an inverted colour.) For a first, this is impressive. Welcome to the site, you'll do well.

    On an unrelated note: I really dislike the Lizard design so much, it just looks so...low budget.

    i would say front is great
    back need to update:
    [played by Andrew Garfield] should be [Andrew Garfield]
    you need to blend the picture of the scene or give it up something
    and the description, change the font
    sorry for my English, i am Indonesian

    Thanks for welcome & for the tips. First ever attempt so any pointers are great. I agree with you on the Lizard, it looks more like a plastic toy you would buy rather than something in a move with that type of budget.

    Sorry, but I don't think the green on the back looks good :/ I'd suggest to change it in the same color scheme as the front. I like the font you've chosen for the synopsis, but the spacing and visibility (it could use a small drop shadow) of the text isn't really helping. The comic style at the bottom of the back is a nice touch, but I would outline the boxes so it feels more like a comic. The stars rating is a bit to big imo. I'd suggest to make it a bit smaller. It's also missing some company logo's and some credits and legal info, but that isn't really a big issue though.

    It's pretty good for a first and the front looks great

    I think it's fine if you're drawing inspiration from it, but on several aspects, you're just copying the one that got into the Hall of Fame. Try doing your own thing.

    I did draw inspiration from that, because I've never done a cover before. But the front cover is entirely different to the ripping one. I just stuggled on the back so took inspiration.

    Personally this is too similar too mine:
    - review is same (empire)
    - screen shots are the same (apart lizard)
    - captions are the same
    - strip beside tagline
    - placement of Lizard render

    Exactly, I know it's his first box and all, and it would certainly be fine to look to yours for inspiration, but too much is exactly the same.

    Yea I think we can all agree that the back is a bit unoriginal, but I must admit, I really do enjoy the cover. I think what you've done on your most recent update is great.

    But I'd follow what these guys are saying and try to change the back design a bit. I'm sure there are many other positive reviews of this movie, as well as different positioning that one could do for the text, lizard, and even comic book frames.
