Seamless clip montage creating a biting and moving satire
17 June 2023
Kudos to Soda Jerk, they obviously know their motion pictures and television. Watching the credits after a breathless final act, well over 100 movies and TV programs are referenced to give the original makers their due. They also have an unmatched discipline to their art, as the compilation of intertwined clips would suggest.

This is an entertaining and thought-provoking montage of nostalgia-driven material that is one of the cleverest satires to come out of Australia for at least the last couple of years. Although some of the scenes don't quite work (Corona Lager anyone?), almost all scenes are right on point. Especially the Garfield sequence used to encapsulate the Trump presidential era. The best 90 seconds of animation you'll ever see.
