Too much of everything
A lot of fun.
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Although the Quebec French ,in spite of the accent, is understood over here in France,they felt compelled to provide the viewers with subtitles (in fact ,only the scene where the teenagers sniff cocaine and smoke grass needs them)Mat is a teenager ,perhaps a rebel (against something we only understand at the end of the short );he draws a graffiti under an overpass ;pursued by the police he returns to his home where he spends the night brooding.However,he seems to live in a happy family: much time is given over to the breakfast scene when the teenager eats cereals ;mom says:" your brother's arriving at 3 h 30PM ";she gives no detail ,we guess she thinks he should pattern himself upon him.After spending some time with his pals with whom he compares junk qualities,he accompanies the whole family who drives to the airport .The plane lands ,a soldier stands to attention , and then.....To write more would be a spoiler.
