Nice try but no cigar

Well, there was nothing wrong with the concept of distributing a movie directly to the consumer over the internet. Unfortunately, the movie is boring and its attempt at philosophic symbolism falls flat on its face. I didn't mind the film's relatively low budget, or 'short' length (32 minutes or so), but what it needed was a major kick in the butt. Like a script which is interesting, or funny, or creative or emotionally engaging. Or a director who can make a meandering pointless mess of a script at least come across half-decently (somehow, if thats possible at all). The actors had nothing to work with so you can't blame them.
