Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Robert Reynolds This is a rather curious and infectious short. There will be spoilers ahead:This short was inspired by a track from an album by The Real Tuesday Weld. The title of both the track and the short are the same.The premise of the short is that cuckoos have decided they wish to take over London and they start with one man. They have difficulty gaining traction until they begin mass producing cuckoos from his cuckoo clock. They finally conquer him and then set out across the city.Ultimately, a large cuckoo emerges from "Big Ben" and London is theirs. There's a beautiful ending to this which I won't spoil. It's a most engaging short just over three minutes or so in length. It looks for all the world like a music video.This short is available on DVD, as part of The Animation Show, Volume 1. This short and the DVD as a whole are highly recommended.

ccthemovieman-1 This is fun from the first note and scene to the last, depicting "The Great Revolution of the British Cuckoos" who took over London, eventually forcing people to take their spots inside the cuckoo clocks!In particular, we see one gentleman a victim of a friendly cuckoo attack as the cuckoos emerge en masse out of clock and cart the bather off while he tries to enjoy his bath. I guess the "revolution" started with this man depicted in his flat. First, the cuckoos capture him, and then the rest of the city. In the end, we see what happens to the bather (and presumably the rest of London!) About halfway through the action alternates between the bather and the chaos which is going on in the city streets. To say this "cartoon" is frenetic, is understating the case!The high-contrast black-and-white visuals are tremendous - it's hard to describe - but it's the catchy, foot-tapping music that will elevate your mood and provide much of the enjoyment in watching this short film. It's fast music, almost bluegrass-type material and by two minutes of the repetitive verses, you've heard enough.t's certainly different and will instantly put you into a good mood.

MartinHafer IMDb has imposed a rule that all reviews must be at least 10 lines long and I usually love this rule. However, with a very short film like BATHTIME IN CLERKENWELL, it's hard to come up with 10 lines, as there really isn't much to talk about other than it's short and fun to watch. Here goes: The film begins with lots of very simple animation in black and white. At the same time, a jaunty song plays and the animation is timed perfectly to the tune. Is it life changing? No. But somehow it's oddly satisfying and addictive. You can't help but tap your feet and pay attention to this cute film. I would love to see more from the same team that made this--it's creative and they've quite a touch with animation. Good job.

Polaris_DiB If you want something to make you upbeat in the morning, but have just realized that that fourth use of the last of the coffee grounds has diminished its effectiveness, you could probably use this short as a substitute (which is kind of ironic, considering its subject matter...).REVOLT! Cuckoos are tired of the mistreatment of their master! Time to take over the apartment! No! THE WORLD! This short uses a particular approach to sound where the action and the sound are similarly reactive, so that something that happens in the movie changes the score or maybe vice versa. I'm not sure which was written first or how this came to be made. But it's basically a music video, of the kind you would probably see on some children's television if not for the relative violence of the situation. There's nothing bad here but it is kind of aggressive.I like it, I think it's funny. But be forewarned, it can be a little overstimulating, don't watch during times of headache and ill-ease.--PolarisDiB
