    I want MORE!!!

    This is a very frustrating short because it is so short and I really wanted more. I assume the writer and director made this film as a demo so they could learn the craft and move on to bigger projects. Or, perhaps, this was the project they wanted to do more of but made a short to secure funding for a film or TV series. All I know is that this short hooked me and I wanted more.

    What, exactly, did I like? Well, the whole mind-numbing and sarcastic look at corporate America was funny and is reminiscent of one of my favorite recent TV shows--"Dead Like Me". In this show, in addition to being a grim reaper, the main character is a very small cog in a corporation and all the silly game playing and strange personalities you see in this office is highly akin to the way people cope and work in CORPORATE PUNISHMENT.

    Funny, insightful and super-cynical--I really want to see what the team that made this film is doing in five years.
