I had high hopes...since I love anything time-travel-y.
But I only gave this short film a 3 ...for effort. Obviously someone spent the time and effort to make the film. Thats worth an extra point (over my initial choice of 2 out of 10).
But for me, it was just so chock full of nit-picking moments, I didn't enjoy it.
The acting is par...maybe worse. But no worse than many soap operas. The premise is intriguing. Keeping it a short film was very smart. It would be difficult to flesh this out to feature length.
However, from the very first ten seconds, when a so-called respected archaeologist is randomly sticking his hands in a loose pile of fresh dirt ...seemingly looking for something he already knows is there ...and unbelievably ''discovers'' this Bijou device ...I was already shaking my head and nattering to the screen.
I'm sorry, but I don't give this one a thumbs up.
