Ambient (2015)
Cheap, basic but well meaning
I watched this by chance, as it cane up on our hosts visual channel. Simple premise, a dystopic post event world, an Artificial Intelligence event in particular. We start in the usual cantina, with a not so wretched hive of scum and villainy, populated by the remain of the cast from Grease, or are they the Jets from Westside story, I get distracted..
A small band of hero's trying to save the day.. Imagined on very small budget and this is why most people will give up, the acting is variable but tolerable for something that looks like a film course graduation piece.
However, as each episode is 3, yes 3 whole minutes long, it can be forgiven its many sins. Simple and quick, oh and a little bit schmaltz, here and there. There, is that ten lines yet?
This Is Jinsy (2010)
The finest island comedy since, well forever.
If you never grew up on a small island, watch this. If you did, watch this. Amazingly inventive and funny, full of cameos from the likes of David Tennant and Harry Hill.
Perfectly pitched and balanced, with an excellent cast, the residents of the island of Jinsy are definitely act like inmates of an asylum, overseen on the behalf of "The Great He" by Arbiter Mavern and his ever faithful team of dripping, myopic and cleverer assistants. Whilst this may appear simple, it is anything other than that.
If it is an asylum, the inmates have definitely taken over and they have a lot to sing about. So, daily greet and sing sing sing.
