Note de krazykat29
I saw this back in the day and absolutely laughed my ass off. It was one of those rare indie shorts that was truly professional and funny.
I contacted the filmmaker JW in an attempt to find a copy of the movie - but to no avail.
It really is one that I wish would find itself on YouTube somehow. (Hint hint) The premise - of there being too many actors in Hollywood- and being a non native species akin to Prairie Dogs - and the hunt that ensues, is comedy gold. It could have been grim dark horror - and also worked - but as comedy, it's up there with the best Monty Python skits.
And George Wendy bemoaning, "hot new talent... what's wrong with hot old talent" is hilarious. And true.
Get me a way to see this again!!!

The movie started with promise but quickly devolved into a mosh mash of plot and style ultimately resulting in - nothing.
Are we supposed to like the protagonist? Dislike? Who and what are we rooting for?
Ugh.
Cop movies are nothing new, neither is terrorizing someone in a room. I thought the movie was gonna be a Saw meets cop movie sorta thing based on some reviews. gotta say though, this movie was way cooler than that. It reminded me of Guy Ritchie movies - tracking back an forward in time, funny surreal moments, people breaking fourth wall to explain things, characters switching places, etc.
The acting was solid and cinematography and editing were top notch. The beginning felt a tad weak, but i'm really splitting hairs here. They really got everything on the screen with this movie. I think if there's any real 'problem' with it is, it doesn't follow the typical arc people expect these days. More of an oblique 70's feel, where you don't have the satisfaction of a neat resolution or the hero doing the final heroic thing. But that's a good thing. It's unexpected.
All in all, it was actually one of the better movies I've seen this year. Hope it gets legs. It deserves it.
