The title of Attack on a Bakery makes it sound a little more intense than this short film ends up being, but I guess it also sounds a bit ridiculous, and lives up to that side of things. It's technically a crime/comedy short film, but is pretty keen on being subversive and quirky (using that word in a positive sense, if that's possible, rather than a negative one).
It tells a simple story with a good number of deviations from the expected, and then introduces a few surprisingly lofty ideas at the end before ending in a way that felt abrupt, at least to me. I'm left a little perplexed by Attack on a Bakery as a whole, but it was also a nice way to spend 16 minutes. It gets in, gets out, and doesn't mess around too much as a film (as for the crime in question... it's not quite that simple, but in a way that ends up working... it's hard to explain this one; just watch it!).
