Suspicious review & rating for poor short film
22 March 2010
Warning: Spoilers
I happened to watch this film for the second time by accident recently, on Sky TV. The first time must have been years ago sometime as I only recalled having seen it before once it got to the end. If I'd have remembered sooner I wouldn't have bothered wasting my time (again!).

This film is so pretentious; it is very showy and has no substance. The story is totally stupid and really boring to watch. The twist has the OMG factor. But not "OMG that was so clever" but "OMG these guys are really stupid."

An 'it was all a dream' ending is shameful. Shame on you pretentious lot who made this tripe!

As for the 'suspicious' review & score I mentioned well, bar this one there are only 2 other reviews on IMDb for this film. One is written by someone who has never ever reviewed another film on IMDb before or since, but seemingly felt compelled to write one for this terrible short film. Part of the crew perhaps? Maybe even the director herself? The review seems to imply the reviewer knows the lead actor as they refer to him as a 'humble man', so it would appear there is a connection somewhere.

As for the "rising star" director, on what star she is supposed to be rising on I don't know as she only appears to have directed one other film and the lack of votes on that suggest very few people have ever seen it.

The ridiculously high rate for this film can surely only be accounted for by the filmmakers themselves voting on their own film. It really isn't worthy of such a high rating.
