This "alleged" short goes on forever. It is pretentious and boring. I cannot possibly understand why anyone who has half a brain would sit through a second helping of this leering edsel.
This is the kind of short film made by a man who loves himself too much.

This cornucopia of visual and aural delights by first-time filmmaker Brooks astounds. After over a dozen viewings, the texture and layering of this intense and surreal film continue to reveal themselves to me -- something new and exciting with every viewing. The mastery of the writer/director is perfectly matched by the presence and pitch performance of the spellbinding Hartnett, who shows clearly why he has ascended the Hollywood hierarchy with such rapid aplomb and astuteness. The angst and pain of the entitled and alienated Gen-Y character, embelmatic of his generation (give me more, give it to me now, "let me be desired by") strikes an exposed nerve with a surgeon's touch, conveying the voice of the Napster generation with one deft swipe. There is a new voice in modern cinema. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
if you have been bitterly toiling over the dead end task of telling yourself it's all okay;
if you feel most comfortable when surrounded by carping toadies;
if your best argument is to raise your voice to drown out opinions you disagree with;
if you are proud to swallow the pack of prime time lies served up with their delicious theme toons;
if you volunteer for community service in order to pump yourself up by brow-beating the weak;
if you pride yourself on your dogmatic blinkers;
if you take any criticism to be a fearful attack on your infantile narcissistic world;
if you confuse shooting fish in a barrel with a higher spiritual practice;
if you hate anyone who doesn't feel, talk or look the way they're supposed to;
if you live to decorate your rut;
THEN DO NOT WATCH THIS FILM.

ok- this movie is outstanding!!! Its so unreal with what you can do with 15 minutes!!!!! Josh Hartnett just makes the finishing touches on the movie!! I think everyone should make a point to see this movie, because it is something very different and unique than all the other teeny-bop movies! Its a great movie for all ages! I hope you all liked it as much as I did! -Cheryl
I can't imagine someone one this planet who couldn't relate, more so experience the gravity of what this picture displays.
To me this is without doubt one of the best summaries of the raw emotion society trains us to ignore, handing out more gas to throw on the fire. I can't say I truly understand, or know the depths of the meaning. Even still for every time I've watched this, it's an understatement to say it's just motivating. Very impressive the amount of information Member guides you through and the vivid detail hitting the struggles and burning desires we have as humans on the mark. The sarcasm beautifully laced throughout this film is mind blowing and worth every minute to witness. An overall refreshing experience. For this being a short film the amount of time everything was encapsulated into Member I walk away feeling like I just got out of church :D ENJOY
