Carlitopolis (2006)
28 Jan 2006 • Short, Comedy • 0h 4m
This is a clever little Film that is technically quite impressive and funny, but it just doesn't quite deliver--like a joke without an adequate punchline.The film begins with a lecturer telling his audience that they will be able to see the inside of his box on the view screen. It seems that inside is a cute little mouse and it's pretty sick (but funny) when he begins doing horrible experiments on the poor animal. Don't worry, it's NOT real--but it sure looks rather real and I am sure it makes the PETA-loving types out there hemorrhage to see this! However, after two sick little "experiments", the final payoff just didn't do much of anything--it just fizzled. Oddly, the credits that followed were more exciting than the final "joke"--as you see the most adorable computer generated mouse sitting and reading a magazine as the credits roll.Because the basic idea was very good and the graphics were well handled, I do look forward to more from this team--let's just hope the next time they think it through a bit more and provide a more consistent product.
