### 4/5 — Nice but...

*2018-07-27, version 1.1*

I was able to use before but now I can’t use this. Please make an update so this can be used on OS 11 and later

### 2/5 — It's okay.

*2018-04-27, version 1.1*

Meh.

### 3/5 — It's fantastic until you get to great fx!

*2017-07-08, version 1.1*

I downloaded this app and to use many of the fx especially the really good ones for this video clip I am making and then what happened was, I did the first plasma effect which was great so I thought the others were even better but all I get from them is a red circle. Do you know how to fix this? 
Pleas fix

### 4/5 — Please update

*2017-05-15, version 1.1*

It's a great app, but it's nearing not being able to be used with future ios updates. Don't let this happen.

### 2/5 — OK

*2017-05-01, version 1.1*

To many things cost money.

### 3/5 — Buena pero..

*2016-03-16, version 1.1*

Le doy 3 estrellas porque cuando voy a guardar algún video me dice que si se guardó pero se cierra, menos mal que cuando entro a mi galería si está el video.

### 2/5 — DONT YOU DARE WAIST YOUR TIME!!!

*2016-01-16, version 1.1*

This app is a #!$@*; ripoff! It waists time and storage!!! Try to save it to your camera roll, it cheats you off, it doesn't let you use videos from your camera roll, this app even spells there names wrong when they explain things to you!!! They spelled will as wil and thing as thig!!!!!!!!!😡😡👿👿😸😸😸💀💀💀💀

### 3/5 — うんまあ

*2016-01-10, version 1.1*

良いんじゃないかな〜

### 2/5 — U can't use the good wons

*2015-12-12, version 1.1*

How do u use extreme abduction

### 2/5 — Not so good, although...

*2015-10-24, version 1.1*

I have done 1 movie with this app, not noticing that the movie just came out red and I wanted to look at the movie I had just made and there was no effects on the video, just a red haze. It is a shame because the effects look so cool. And I think I am the only one having this problem because I look at the other reviews and they are all 5 stars and don't say anything about a problem with any of the features with this app.

### 4/5 — Big

*2015-05-07, version 1.1*

Great app, but on my iPhone 6 plus, when ever I push record, it just goes back to home screen. Please fix bug!

### 1/5 — Please update!

*2018-08-18, version 1.1*

Apps like this one are not common on the App Store, and they make playing with your iPad or iPhone a blast (pun intended)!

I can no longer use it because it hasn’t been updated to work with iOS 11.  Please update it!  You do have a bunch of fans of this app!  If it’s a lot of work, I wouldn’t even mind paying an update fee of some kind - make a sequel perhaps...a version 2...I don’t know, but allow us to restore purchases to get our previous paid FX back.

I really hope you'll consider updating this one.  😀

### 1/5 — Terrible💩💩💩💩😤

*2016-11-23, version 1.1*

When I try to take a video, it just shows a red screen and doesn't even show the effects. This app is a scam.

### 1/5 — Vai tomar no cu

*2016-10-01, version 1.1*

### 1/5 — Stupid!!!!!

*2016-05-13, version 1.1*

One of the most STUPID apps I have ever downloaded.    Maybe someone could tell me why this app crashes not only on this iPad also on my sons iPad.

### 1/5 — Needs work

*2016-02-20, version 1.1*

Ultimate gun fire only places a big red screen over recorded video.  You could also allow pre-recorded video to be used with your app's effects.

*2015-07-29, version 1.1*

### 5/5 — When will it come back?

*2021-01-19, version 1.1*

I keep getting told that to unlock this app. The developer needs to update it in iOS 11 or higher. Anyone knows when this app will finally be available again?

### 5/5 — Very good job, but it needs update!

*2017-11-19, version 1.1*

I love this app I’ve used this app for my movie so many times. I can’t now because it needs to be updated. Update please and I’ll give you some time just to fix and update the app. Thanks! 👍👍👍👍

### 5/5 — This app needs updating!

*2017-11-15, version 1.1*

I just updated my iPhone 6 with iOS 11. But when I try to get on this app a box popped up, saying 'Movie FX Needs to Be Updated' and ''The Develpor of this app needs to update it to work with iOS 11''. Please update this app as I'm using a few visual effects from this app in an upcoming film project and I can't afford any hold ups. Please update!

### 5/5 — Really good

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2015-10-31, version 1.1*

I love it!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2015-07-12, version 1.1*

I like it and all and its actually one of the best around in apps, but it really needs an update. Plus, I think that since you have to pay for this app, all the effects should be free. Just sayin this cuz us kids don't always have the money to pay for it and parents don't always say yes. Just sayin

### 5/5 — Excelente app
