CGiii Comment

To say a short film is too long is not a compliment.

But...this is too long. It's cultural, it's that Bollywood thing - songs...where and when a song is unnecessary.

It's a shame - the production values are pretty damn good - it's just those bloody songs, they get in the way! Here, they got in the way of what could have been a mighty little film.
