too aggressive for voice one acting and not enough on voice two and not much storyline

Not bad at all for the first character. The one one right throught, I'm not sure if you animated his whole body. If you didn't, I strongrly sggest you to. Even if we only see his head, animating his whole body will make him far more natural!

Some nice poses from character one, a nice shot, good animation, nice job.

Love the acting, especially him pushing away from the desk and flopping into the crossed arms as he leaned back. Lips sync could have a bit more polish. (The "oo" mouths could be a bit stronger and i think there may be a bit more of an impact if you moved all the lip syncs up a frame, we see before we hear)

Kind of unusual staging here, but I actually think it works so I'll give it a pass :)
The first character doesn't seem to settle on an emotion here. While I think the motions are good (especially the hand flip and when he folds his arms), his expressions change so much that I can't tell how he feels about the situation. What is this character thinking?
Examples:
Frame 28 - he seems startled or unsure about things
59 - casually disinterested
96 - angry
137 - back to casually disinterested.
274 (as the other guy is speaking) - nervous or unsure of himself again
Good use of lipsync but can be pushed further. Look at the 'f' sound in 'merciful': the bottom lip will tuck under the top teeth, for example.

nice idea and staging... but work on the lipsync. A video reference always helps. i like the way he pushes the desk, i would add a tiny shiver in the old/slow guy :)
