"4:00" by Five Clover Films - Reviewed on April 10th, 2006

A few points to make.
(1) Just because you jerk off to Vanessa doesn't mean she is a lesbian, ya little twerp. Trust me, neither is Cate nor is Gab. I can promise you that. To add, I can bet they are MUCH easier on the eyes than you are, I would bet they are at least only BARELY less convincing on film, and let us not forget that Film IS a VISUAL MEDIUM. JEEZ!

(sorry about that rant, but I ain't gonna delete it)

(2) Win loose or not, you ALL have to admit Mike's tallent for editing and directing with this one. In a word, outstanding. Being one that NEVER watches TV myself, I don't know and couldn't care a whit less what a "24" is or why I should give a rat's hiney more or less about it. Still, he put together one hell of a 3 minute short based on it.

(3) Yes, some of the acting was about what you would expect form Filmfights... so what? What... you are all academy level actors now? Can I get a pic of you and your Oscar when we all meet at the next awards show? How'z'bout you let me know when your next feature is up, with YOU playing the lead, of course, so I can applaud wildly for YOUR acting, eh?

(4) Win loose or whatever, Mike ... Damn nice job. I would suggest a little more intricate plot development, but that is impossible with only 4 minutes to work with, so disregard the thought. You didn't drag any scenes too long, the use of music was impressive, and your camera-eye was just outstanding. I was luke-warm on it to start with, but WOW! Nice job.

Some of you little stains will dig as deep as you need to to throw poop at someone else's work, won't you. Lesbians? JEEZ I didn't think my oppinion of your juvinility (is that a word?) could get any worse. Most of you are really damn cool, but SOME of you ...

"4" by Zag Yo Productions - Reviewed on April 13th, 2006

I liked it a lot. I really like your idea and the twist you did with the two stories running at the same time, but feel that you tried to cram too much into 4 minutes. It just starts getting confusing and you aren't really sure what stories are important to what characters. Not that the idea itself couldn't work, but if you have only 4 minutes to work with, sometimes you just have GOT to simplify.
Don't misunderstand, though. It was a great flick overall.
