Wouldn't we all like a do-over at some point?

Warning: Spoilers
undate/redate is an interesting take on getting a "do-over" to get the girl. The main character journals about the previous night at a party. As he does so he rewrites the event so that he ends up with the girl. However, once he gets a date with her, he finds that she is not what he was expecting.

The film is unclear about when the events are"real" and when they are the imaginations of the journal, but for a five-minute short it is humorous and well-made. The acting is better than what I expect in a short film, and the story is well written. The best thing I can say is that the premise is such that you could imagine sequels, and that those sequeals would be as entertaining.

Very high marks! This was a very clever, engaging, humorous short. Very good production values - cinematography, sound, and acting all top notch and the well told story set it well above the others. I hope to see more of this team's work soon.

WTF guidelines for posting a review to this site - must be at least ten lines long? Are we all film school idiots who love nothing more than the sight of our own pretentious blather? Can't express ourselves with precision and economy? Anyone getting paid by the word? Site so desperate for content?

Okay that seven lines, only three more to fill before I can get to share my opinion. Let's see, I can mention other movies i have seen of late that I would recommend to anyone. First up, The Guard is straight up hilarious. You will be entertained and you will want more from this director.
