Although I'm not particularly fond of short films, I was quite happily surprised by this one, the cruelty of this "Full metal jacket» like officer is really well depicted, yet plenty funny too, it's well shot and it's full of perfectly well digested influences. So, I wasn't hopping for much, but in the end was truly surprised. A true achievement. For people who are not speaking French, it obviously won't be easy to fully appreciate the dialogues, and that's a shame, for they are funny in a dark sort of way a I mentioned before, but what they will still be able to comprehend, is the immense weight of the influences of the director, mostly there's Leone and some Peckinpah, but some others too, and finally there's the gorgeous music, truly wonderful, you just don't expect that in a short film, obviously, the composer believed in the project and nailed the soundtrack a if it belonged to a feature film. Impressive!
