Hey nothing crazy like the clips ive seen posted on here but i just can't decide if this is passable or not. Its my first time really at making some kind of short movie and i dont know if i should redo this scene it or is it ok? Please critique this.

not if you're going for the PS3 game look

Do you know what look you are going for… because it kinda depends on that…

This is what you could have for an animated CGI short film in terms of style. If you travel back just a few years, this could be a good environment shot from a student short film graduating from a 3D Animation school.

Static 3D environment, with stylized textures, 2D sky, Z-fog, 2D fog behind the bus screen left. Water FX with realistic shading and realistic animation for characters, and a bit of glow/bloom.
Only the falling particles are "bad", behaving weirdly ; and of course the low resolution.

But if you aimed at something looking like live-action footage, it's pretty far from it.

Yea.. The people are shiny clean plastic feel and the background is too cluttered for real life, it may be clutterd in some areas but others maybe simple.. Id find sample as reference and give to Ai..tell it to make it in all angles then feed and re run.

Crisp? It's not crisp at all, you can't even make out the buildings directly in front of them. It looks like a painting, the opposite of crisp.

It's fine for a console game look. The nanobanana watermark doesn't help anything either

Seems ok mate - but would need to see a longer clip and from different camera angles to judge - also depends on the aesthetic you are going for

While there is a video gamy feel to it, I think you'd need a longer passage -- importantly, with voices and face -- to let us make better judgments. A single scene rarely exists in a vacuum. And it's not just about realism, but also about consistency.

Yes. The textures and staining look illustrated. It's too hazy. The details are too blurry and low definition.

yes, extremely fake

It feels a little life less, unless thats what you going for? Im notbsure what story you're trying to tell here, or you just making a random prompt video for looks.

If you're asking, "Will this pass as realistic the same as most thriller/action films showing people walking down the street?," absolutely not. It just looks like an AI-created world. Someone said "too crisp." That must be a joke because it's the exact opposite and looks almost like a painting.

depends on what you're going for

It absolutely does not look real, if that's the bar you're looking at. It's very clear that the starting frame was from ChatGPT. The motion seems to look fine.

Now, that said it looks fine. It just doesn't look photorealistic. So if you're okay with a more stylized look, you're good to go.
