At first, I was thinking this was yet another funny parody. And, although it’s still a parody, it doesn’t succeed as a comedy. It very well could have if it weren’t for the pacing. It starts off well, but then falls into this slow unnecessary scene that adds nothing to the story, and is just uncomfortable. At first, I was curious. It doesn’t feel like something Waititi would do, but at the end I did see that he didn’t direct it, which makes sense. It definitely isn’t as funny as other Waititi things. And honestly, it feels cheap. Even with other 48 hour film festival things, they didn’t feel this cheap and messy. Still, the moments where the camera tries to make up for the fact that Waititi is the only actor in this large war scene admittedly made me chuckle. Honestly though, just skip this one. 4.5/10
