Windows Movie Maker 2 is so easy a child
could use it--an incredibly patient child born to filmmaker parents who
didn't mind restarting this application every few minutes. From the
get-go, you get the feeling that this isn't going to be an easy program
to like; Microsoft's installer doesn't play nice. It gives the user no
input on program location or other options. The plain interface promises
simplicity with drag-and-drop storyboard options, though during
testing, it was more like drag and freeze. The program typically froze
while importing MPG video files. If importing worked, Movie Maker 2
would quit responding when clips were placed on the storyboard. On the
rare occasion that our testers made it to the storyboard, the program
would freeze when adding one of the numerous effects. There were so many
hurdles to creating a short video that no editing seemed preferable
to
using this software. What's more, uninstalling the program was even more
tedious than installing it. It should be no surprise, then, that we
can't recommend this freeware for any user.
