The last line animates pretty swell and the synch in all 3 is good, perhaps the upper lip is a little too inactive with words like "monster" where when screamed at little children the lips actually meet and help form the word.

There's no animation of the eyes in any of them- the lids are always the same distance apart between the top and bottom like they're just reading a script they have no interest in. There's no nuance of 'character' in the eyes- shy people tend to make statements but not look someone directly in the eye unless they're ticked off which shows throughout the face. When someone lies or exagerates they tend to look/glance to the left (glancing left now) when they lie. Etc.

The eyebrows in the first 2 people seem a bit bouncy (the guy appears a real horny-toad- Kinda fits the clip in an odd way though) but the 3rd chick has nice movement of the brows that shows sarcasm. I've never been unfortunate enough to talk to anyone whose eyebrows bounce so quickly which is probably just as well since I'd want to rip their head off and kick it down the street screaming "Stop doing that!"

This is all just my opinion though. Nice start so far.
