    Go into this like you're viewing trailers.

    I believe the point of all these "short films" were to pique interest and money for future productions - while the style and unfinished feel of these shorts may not suit everyone's tastes, many have incredibly unique and thought-provoking premise, effects, and storylines that could be developed into full features (particularly Rakka, Firebase, Zygote & ADAM).

    If you go in expecting to find resolution and fully molded stories this may not be for you. On the other hand, if you want to be entertained and view some beautifully crafted worlds in various mind-stretching scenarios; give it a shot. Hopefully we'll be able to see a continuation of some of these episodes in either short sequels or full length stories in the future.

    Fresh, makes one think

    It is an experimental show to find out which genre the public likes more in order for the makers to create a feature film. The show is a collection of short movies carrying different, fun ideas. Definitely worth a watch.

    Kill a Few Minutes

    Love the small "what if" format to flex creative muscles without committing to a story or ending.

    There are a few truly intriguing pieces and several I forgot 5 seconds after finishing.

    The first half of Gdansk is a feature length movie I personally wish to see.

    The live action "comedy" pieces are the least satisfying. It's all been seen before, and some leans politically into opinion pieces on a recent US president. Compared to the shirts around this, it seems a bit juvenile and absent creativity.

    Maybe a combined hour to sit through. It won't leave you wanting more, but there are a few nuggets worth sitting through the grit to find.

    Ok, I don't want to be harsh, because it's independent, but...

    First of all, almost all episodes are inconclusive, and that was the point, to raise funds to develop them, and that's ok. It has some good stuff in it, Firebase is really good, I wish I could see the ending of that. Same with Rakka. There are some good ideas. Zygote and Gdansk are interesting.

    For me all the "funny" episodes failed completely, I guess that's not my kind of humor. AT ALL. It's too repetitive and sometimes naive/pointless. For instance, the cooking show, I saw the first two gizmos, and I think I skipped the last ones to the next episode, they were all too obvious and repetitive and not really funny, just parodying something won't make it automatically hilarious. Same with the president one, too far fetch (though extravagant presidents exist of course, like that crazy Thailand dude), Kapture and God, they made no sense and they were too obvious at the same time. And again, for me, they're not even funny to justify them.

    There are some things that didn't make sense, like why are people in Kapture filming for VHS? I guess it's just for the "feeling" of a shaky cam/low quality video? Makes no sense when they're using drones, and mind control they don't have a decent camera? Also, if you want to make humor episodes, you need to hire a good comedy writer. There's a lot to learn from Love, Death & Robots about how to make comedy shorts.

    Again, I don't want to be harsh, the "serious" chapters had something redeemable about them, but the funny ones are plain bad.

    Compendium

    Nice selection of sci-fi and fantasy shorts. Would love to see some of them expanded upon. I especially like the God episodes, very amusing, the Vietnam episode and the very short Gdansk.
