"Boats" is a 2013 7-minute short film written and directed by Justin Dec. Before Dec made this one, he also worked on several pretty famous television shows in smaller positions and a couple films too. One of these series is "Parks & Recreation" where he probably met Jim O'Heir and convinced him to play in this film. O'Heir is not the weakling loser this time, but the boss of a couple aspiring filmmakers and he even fires one of them at the end. "Boats" is basically a spoof on films such as "Cars" and "Planes" and the animation at the end looks very similar to these as well. It's a nice little idea, but the execution and script are as uninteresting as the characters are unlikeable. Not a good watch. Thumbs down.
