Brief but quite fun

Warning: Spoilers
A very entertaining CGI short parodying assassin action films.

While the animation is just merely okay, the premise was fun, taking full advantage of the medium in a rather playful manner, with the assasin being able to perform impossible cartoonish antics while at the same being a deadly unstoppable force.

I do agree this has a lot of potential to be expanded into a full feature lenght film. It probably would result in something bizarre but amusing, similar to stuff like Killer Bean Forever.

Thought it makes me wonder the box assassin should be given some sort of backstory, since I liked the absurd mystery behind him.

6.5/10.

story of a pizza delivery boy
Kirpianuscus8 January 2021
Energic, mixing crumbs of childhood games about gangsters and justice heroes, using as key character a pizza delivery boy, it is a lovely short animation of the dreams becoming true, the good dose of humor giving a perfect ironic perspective about legendary comfrotations and about a genre well loved by many.

Great Pilot Video With A Potential Sequel Series
jwdoll9 June 2024
This is a funny, cute video from an animator who has worked on a wide variety of high quality films like The Bad Guys, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, and Trolls 3. The premise is funny and absurd, yet at the same time it has engaging action and characters that quickly draw you into the story. Needless to say, the quality feels like it was made by a major studio. I saw this video years ago. It is hard to believe that it started as college project, but there has apparently been news about this IP. The creator is starting a kickstarter to create an entire series of this. I can't afford it, but I suggest those who can watch this video and donate to his kickstarter. At least watch the video and spread the word. You won't regret it.
