Review of Shorts

Shorts (2009)
8/10
One of the better Rodriguez for kids, v1.00
27 September 2017
Check the reviews for this. Many are totally against this feature, yet some are for. I am for.

My first viewing, it was not an instant like, not many are these days. The Last Mimzy was an instant like, but this one, Shorts, just had some highlights. I purchased my copies of both of these by chance, they stood out on the shelf when nothing else did. What made Shorts stand out, for me, was it being a kid's film by Rodriguez.

My third viewing, on a large screen and seen up close, said that Shorts is exceptionally good, while also being exceptionally disgusting. It makes The Philosopher's Stone seem tame. Could be that many who consider this feature to be garbage are actually expressing a lack of love for disgusting? Me, I loved my third viewing a lot. True love.

I was really surprised that when Spy Kids 4 came to the UK it was not screened at more cinemas. I am now guessing that it is extremely popular on disk, but that many also consider it to be way too smelly. Cinema owners had a problem with SK 4? I never got around to using my scratch cards.

I experience Shorts to be one of the better Rodriguez for kids, even better than SK4, at the level of SK1 and 3.
