7/10
Plenty of laughs but ended too soon

I haven't laughed so hard in quite some time. Do you remember "Tribbles" from Star Trek? Imagine if the world was taken over by fat cute tribbles! A NYC couple decides its time to turn off the phones and get off the grid for awhile to "reconnect". They go off to a cabin in the woods and not long after these Tribble "Puff" creatures start causing havoc for the whole world. This movie is almost entirely a two actor show. It could have almost been done as a play, since it was mostly dialogue between Sunita Mani (who played Su) and John Paul Reynolds who played Jack. This couple was totally inept of real world skills. Their arguments about using a gun was hilarious, because I could imagine real people having this conversation. I thought Sunita Mani was adorable. John Paul Reynolds played the "modern sensitive non masculine man" to perfection. I fell over when they returned from hiding in the bathroom weilding a toilet plunger and a toilet bowl cover as weapons.

I thought the movie was going great. The acting was wonderful, and I thought we were getting somewhere, but the final act was very disappointing for me. The story ended very abruptly. All of those laughs turned into disappointment. I was confused by the ending. But this doesn't take away from the fun performances of our two main actors.
