*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
Before I begin the review, I have a bit or warning about the language in this short. It's pretty crude and so it isn't good for younger audiences. Still, despite this, I enjoyed it very much because it has a lot to say about the work ethic of younger Americans--for better or worse.
Two parents are frustrated with this teenage son. He only cares about video games and isn't too concerned that he can't pass geometry, nor that he isn't especially employable. When the parents ask him to clean his room and walk the dog, he does it the only way he now knows how--virtually.
This is a very simple idea executed quite well. I especially liked the graphics for the "Chintendo" video game system, though there was a lot more to like. Clever and insightful--this is a great one for parents, though sadly, some kids might not get it.
