Beautiful opening shots. Loving it! Dude has a really goofy run. Hah -- love the opening title and the zoom in. Ha, the shot of the library looks fake.

I like the shots of him running sideways, wish you would have kept that as a theme. Him running towards the camera is less fun. Always good to develop visual consistency.

Man, everyone is calling 911 this fight!!! Ha, oh man I bet he has something in his mouth he needs to spit out.

Too bad the kid is smiling when he says "Daddd?" - kid should be more concerned. LOVE the shot of him leaning down into the fishbowl. Shot at 2:35 of the kid's head going into frame, also quite masterful.

2:54 - oh no poor fish!!!! That kid is cute :) The dad is a good actor. Casting! Gotta love it! Ending shot is QUITE nice though a little bit of jitter on the pull out. SOLD hw as usual --- you're one of my favs!!!

Spectacular!

nice camera, good shots. haha the bike on the sidewalk thing is funny. funny payoff, but the editing and suspensful music at the end were a bit weird, should have ended with happier music and quicker cuts. (and i dont see the fish in the last shot? should have waited til he swam higher... guess goldfish aren't great actors)

Just a great little film. Love the score with it. Good stunt on the skateboard fall! Great angle on the guy laying by the tracks. Kudos to the little boy. Not bad for someone so young, and the final scene is great.

Blooper- ehhh, that library isn't that way! ha!

By far my favorite film by you!? That baby in the womans arms is a NATURAL born actor!?!? Love the story all of the kids did a GREAT job. The mother, bicyclist, skateboarder and runner we're all great also!?

Wow I love HD...Beautiful shots. Outside has never looked so good. Excellent casting, top marks for everyone in the film, the acting really made this. And excellent content hehe funny. fav so far.

Since Dog Chow I've really loved everything you've done and entered into fights! You have great camera skills. The acting has definitely improved over time. My only complaint about this one was that there was too much running around. But I really enjoyed it! Good luck to you!

I loved it. It was simple but yet so technical. I envy you 0_o. I loved all the shots and I got a laugh when you spit the fish into the bowl. I like how you didn't go with, the person being a mute but rather something in his mouth, thats great and it didn't even cross my mind. Anyways I loved all the shots. Great work.

Hello!

I thought this was shot and edited perfectly! One of the best edited shorts I've seen in awhile. I think some of the running shots dragged a little long, especially of the little boy coming home from school. Could have been cut down and I didn't know what I was looking at until he had his close up. LOVED the ending.

Looks like I have some competition!

Loved this short! The music fit perfectly , the action and acting were great and the ending was perfect.

I've gotta agree with all the reviews on this one. I really enjoyed it and you guys got really creative with it. Kudos to the goldfish! One of my top 5 favs! Good Job guys! And Good luck to you!

That really was just super awesomeness. I mean WOW! What a great intro. I love the whole premise of it that the dad is doing all this for his son. The music was great - was it homemade? And even though your other stuff was great, this takes it to a WHOLE new level man! It feels very very professional and I'd def encourage you to take it to other festivals! Only criticism is a couple of the shots last too long like the wide on the kid coming back from school, but apart from that it really was superb - fantastic casting for the lead! SO glad you entered this one

It took me 3 watches to get why you showed a shot of a bus from behind in there. I was thrown off by the sudden color change and didn't realise he wanted to get on it. This has a really nice story to it and you came up with an excellent idea for him not to speak. Some of the running dragged a little. The boy walking home went a bit longer then I felt it needed too. Once in the house the pace just dropped majorly and needed to be a bit tighter. The house part should have been 10 seconds long because he gets in and just waits before he spits the fish in the bowl, we know whats going with him now and then it just stretches out like it was filling time. I think all of the stretchhing out parts, spitting the fish, flushing the dead one him being grossed out by the taste, should have all happened before the boy got to the table, just quick shots of all that happening, so its like "Dad?".. Inside, grab, spit, flush, grossed sit down. all a second or 2 each. Then sitting back at the table boy comes in "hi dad" Would have kept the urgency of this film up and watching it we'd feel more relieved like phew he beat the kid home JUST! He just had way to much time to spare inside. But very nice and touching story keep up the good work :)

I love the ending so much and im glad you didnt really go all out for comedy. I thought the pacing could have been a little faster though as i found myself thinking hurry up i want to see the next scene. Awsome location on the railway tracks and i thought your main actors face expressions where good.
All in all a good film with an awsome end

Very good, very good, i love how the actor kept his facial expressions the same throughout, i loved the ending! Great Work!

That was great. I loved the shots and idea. I don't see a downside.

Biased of course, but love my brother's facial expression throughout the movie. The idea is great and the opening scene in score I love, it makes our town actually look good. Love this movie!

heart-felt, funny. i am glad you made this vid. nothing fishy about it and all gloden-ty, jojjy
