Selected comments from reviews, (Short Film Reviews/Largo Film Awards):
“The writing/directing team, twins Kyle and Kevin Briot, start it off well, with ironies emerging as one couples’ chat in the car is counterpointed with the other pair’s conflab in their hall. Conflict builds as it should, and the script lands some great gags, not to mention punches. A running joke with apples is expertly topped (to use comedy writer jargon) at the end.”
“Nick Dale as Jason drives the piece with extrovert comic touch.”
“The film is kept simple and hinges on the performances which are sound. The relationship between the two brothers is nuanced and flawed which helps create characters that are both funny but also relatable.”
“The simple design allows the audience to truly appreciate the writing and performances.”
“A funny piece that is also thought provoking.”
