halfling

Having some free time on my hands I decided to watch some short films on Atomfilms. "Darkling" is about a 12 year old girl who is left alone in her house by her parents who are going to a party. Soon fear gets the best of her and before you know it she's hiding in the closet with her trusty hockey stick. The acting by both the parents are pretty bad, and at 16 minutes it plays out a tad too long, but it's enjoyable enough I guess. Just don't expect anything stellar and I guess you'll like it *shrugs* It didn't leave an impression on me one way or the other. Strictly middle of the road.

My Grade: C-

Sets a nice mood

This is a short film from the Netherlands that is about a 12 year-old who is left all alone for the weekend. She insists that she's old enough to stay by herself, but naturally as time passes, each and every little sound makes her wonder if she's indeed alone--building to a rather striking ending.

While I did not love this film, the makers did a good job of setting the mood and the film was competently made. I also thought the acting was fine, though one reviewer felt it was poor. For what it was, it seemed okay to me. The only problem is that while everything seems quite competent, nothing really catches the viewer's fancy either. As a result, you are most likely left thinking this is a very adequate though not especially memorable film.
