Here is some stuff I shot over the past few months for a demo reel.

Most of the weapons are real except for the hand gun scenes.

Hi:

All of your stuff has nice color and composition but several of the shots look too soft or out of focus to me. Nice work but check that focus more. It is tough with the HVX, that screen is tough to see accurate focus with.

Good luck,

Dan

Dan is right, focus is way off. It's obvious you're using a lens adapter system so I'd check your setup and make sure you're focusing properly on the ground-glass first and that you've "locked it down" with tape after making your final setup. Alignment is also important so if your rig isn't properly mated to the front end of the camera you'll get image skew.
