Just So You Know

I loved this short film, great production values and great actors, with an added extra of some amazing dialogue, a lot better than many films I have seen. Whoever wrote the script for this movie should win an award, I don’t know what, but something, the word play was worth of Kevin Smith, if I can say that. The red shirt of the Director/cameraman played well against the other colors in the film; it was loud and shouted at you. This film showed the way low to no budget movies are made, and how frustrating it can be when nothing is going right and you are about to snap. I loved the kid you ran into the shot sometimes and drop kicked the tree, I have no idea why he was doing it, but it added a lot to the comedy of the film. It beautifully showed the epitome of low budget movies, and it did it in a very professional way.

Films with ninjas in them, got to love them, if you take a bad film, and you put a ninja in it, it automatically becomes a good film. I don’t care what the ninja does, or if it is a crappy ninja, just the thought that a ninja is in your film makes it that much better. This film, even though it mad fun of the ninja, it was still funny, especially the grapefruit in the eye, then death, who would have thought. The frame tale aspect of it was also cool; starts with the jogging, and throughout their jogging, he tells the story of how he got a ninja to be his roommate, and the films ends when he gets done jogging and comes back to the apartment, perfect example of frame narrative. Another aspect of this film I liked was that it was so out there, your friend dies of juice in the eye, and then you get a ninja as a roommate, and then that ninja dies and another ninja comes in to be your roommate, it doesn’t have to make sense, it’s a freakin’ Ninja!

And finally the Star Wars debate, a couple of words on this, it has been, is, and will always be, so get used to it, and respect people with their different views. Film was funny and perfectly shows what millions of people were doing after they saw Episode One, thank you.
