Early on this showed promise to a funny "short," but it really wasn't. After five or six minutes, it got simply boring. The third segment comprised most of the overall time and went on way too long.

Actually, as someone who has a lot of trouble sleeping, it was amazing: this short film almost put me to sleep!
