Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Don't Believe the Hype
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
This being a short movie, it's obvious that it has to convey quite a few things, in a real short period of time. Considering it runs 15 Minutes (which is quite long on the other hand for a short movie), it does spend a lot of time at the beginning, where it could be a bit faster getting to the point.But then again, the beginning sets up the mood for the rest of the short movie. The acting is pretty solid and you could say, that it ticks every box a sci-fi/Fantasy movie should check. Another thing I should mention is the cinematography. It is really a great dark mood that is sets out ... in the end it's not really great, but it is a nice flick and could be a promise for the future of this filmmaker ...
