Completely Unimpressive

I enjoy short movies, so I specially tuned in to IFC to watch The Debt. I was completely unimpressed. It was in the obligatory black and white of indie shorts. It tried to maintain a style of retro-metro, much like Pulp Fiction did, only not done well. The story was just confusing, and for such a basic one, it leads me to believe it just wasn't told well. The directing was nothing out of the ordinary, although sometimes that isn't a bad thing, this was just bland.
