While the acting may be amateur as well, it’s once again turned into a source of humor, injecting additional fun into the overall narrative.
Incorporating pop-culture references along the way, this short film is bound to evoke numerous laughs, inviting audiences to revel in the hilariously absurd journey. In essence, Moran’s sci-fi comedy provides a refreshing and enjoyable escape that highlights the beauty of embracing imperfections and finding humor within them.
