    This take on Portal is quite unique!
    GLaDOS as a previously abandoned project picked up by a new character is very different and I really like it. Doug’s characterization was well done as well.
    I also liked the scene referencing Half Life. That was really neat!
    The editing and cgi is impressive for a non-profit work. It gives a 1990’s to early 2000’s movie vibe.

    Let me just say everything I love about this short fan film (SPOILER WARNING):
    -I love the premise. Basically Aperture descends into chaos after they lost governmental contracts to Black Mesa.
    -The dark, gloomy atmosphere. It fits the tone of the short film perfectly.
    -The mind-blowing animation. I didn't expect such Hollywood-level animation from a short film. Absolutely blew my mind.
    -The voice acting. The voice actors did an amazing job, especially whoever voiced Wheatley, that was just a perfect impression.
    -The lore of the film. Basically takes the lore from the game, and adds so much more to it. Chell being designed for these tests, Wheatley originally used as one of GLaDOS's cores (which was briefly explained in Portal 2), the portal gun becoming dangerous, GLaDOS killing the scientists, and a lot of other stuff. I didn't expect this much lore, but it was so worth it in the end.
    -The music. The music was absolutely incredibly for this short fan film. The music adds a sort of immersion to the film. And that rendition of "Want You Gone" was absolutely beautiful. I espeically loved the little nod to the Portal song "Still Alive" at the end of the song, the song that was used in the first Portal game during the credits sequence.
    -The ending. The ending was nuts and I loved it. We actually got to see Gordon Freeman as he walked around a pretty empty wasteland.
    -Some of the special effects. Some of the special effects were absolutely mind-blowing. I really didn't expect such amazing special effects from a non-profit fan film of this magnitude.

Glado's does remotely "fizzle" a companion cube in the chamber, true, but we don't know if the mechanism is the same as when a cube passes through an emancipation grill.

    This is an incredible piece of cinematography! The plot, the special-effects, the acting (both full-body and voice-only) were amazing! The only thing keeping this masterpiece down is the noise in the renders, which was sometimes very distracting. You rightly used a lot of metallic and transparent materials to imitate Portal's world, but rendering such surfaces is very expensive. Big studios don't have to worry about it, because they have enormous render farms at their disposal, but you have definitely made the most of what you had and massive kudos to you! I can tell the team put their hearts and souls into this project!

    I have so much to say
    I have been a fan of Portal ever since I was in elementary school, it was my favorite game for YEARS! Now I'm a film student to-be and it's extremely inspiring to see what a small team was able to create (even if it took two years). Hopefully if/when the sequel comes out, I'll have made some short films of my own! I really hope you guys succeed and REALLY hope you guys continue with the second part!
    I love the use of greenscreens, props, VFX, and 3D animation! And the music is on an entirely different level. It was also really neat to see Gordon Freeman at the end- I've never played any half-life games, but loved the cameo! Nice to see that the film stayed true to the game's lore but had its own creative twists. Absolutely loved this project and look forward to anything you guys may make in the future!

    I'm genuinely impressed with the quality and even length of the film, whilst you can obviously tell that the budget isn't super high, such as with the lighting disparity in a few rooms etc.
    For what it is, its absolutely phenomenal. You can tell that this is crafted with love and passion like no other. I watched through for the full 27 minutes and 53 seconds.
    I enjoyed it quite a lot. Even a year or two after it was released.

    This was a triumph
    I'm making a note here; "Huge success"
    It's hard to overstate
    My satisfaction
    Aperture Science:
    We do what we must
    Because we can
    For the good of all of us
    Except the ones who are dead
    But there's no sense crying
    Over every mistake
    You just keep on trying
    Till you run out of cake
    And the science gets done
    And you make a neat gun
    For the people who are
    Still alive
    I'm not even angry
    I'm being so sincere right now
    Even though you broke my heart,
    And killed me
    And tore me to pieces
    And threw every piece into a fire
    As they burned it hurt because
    I was so happy for you
    Now, these points of data
    Make a beautiful line
    And we're out of beta
    We're releasing on time
    So I'm GLaD I got burned
    Think of all the things we learned-
    For the people who are
    Still alive
    Go ahead and leave me
    I think I'd prefer to stay inside
    Maybe you'll find someone else
    To help you?
    Maybe Black Mesa?
    That was a joke *Haha - Fat Chance*
    Anyway this cake is great
    It's so delicious and moist
    Look at me: still talking
    When there's science to do
    When I look out there,
    It makes me GLaD I'm not you
    I've experiments to run
    There is research to be done
    On the people who are
    Still alive
    And believe me I am
    Still alive
    I'm doing science and I'm
    Still alive
    I feel fantastic and I'm
    Still alive
    While you're dying I'll be
    Still alive
    And when you're dead I will be
    Still alive
    Still alive

    For those, who say Portal fandom is dying, this is the major counterargument. Also I've joined Portal fans community in 2021, 10 and 14 years after each game's release respectively. After 16 years, many major Portal creators are still kicking.
    I would even say that this fandom works better than many younger fandoms.
