A very good mod, and what a way to end the year.

The good:
-I really, really liked the 1980s and 2010s levels, though the final boss in the 1980s levels could do with less enemy spam.
-The gunplay's cool, ESPECIALLY the shotgun and Mac-11 from the 1980s levels, best guns by far.
-Story's nice, as expected from a HL2 mod.
-The soundtrack is very good! (Other than the 1940s levels OST.)

The meh:
-The kick feature seems pointless compared to other mods, and it's only used sparingly for kicking down doors.
-The 1920s levels were kind of meh, but noir theme was very nice. Could use a bit more detailing in certain spots.
-Lots of clipping issues on the viewmodels.
-Power-ups are fun to use but feel very hacky.

The bad:
-The 1940s levels are just completely awful. Out-of-place music, difficulty spikes and very simplistic levels.
-Subtitles don't last long enough for long periods of dialogue and are broken in most cutscenes.

Overall score - 7.7/10, could easily be an 8.7 if these issues are fixed
