"Abiogenesis" is a 4-minute short film from 2011 and so far the only directorial effort by filmmaker Richard Mans from New Zealand. I think the story was okay at best and that already takes into account how this is such a short movie. At 6 or 7 minutes, it certainly would have been a drag. However, the animation is nicely done without being magnificent, however. All in all, this is a fairly mediocre outcome as there are so many more movies, especially when it comes to animation. I would like to recommend it, but taking into account also how this film takes itself so seriously from start to finish, I just can't. I wonder if Mans will ever make another film, but if he does, I really hope he can step thing up until then. Thumbs down.
