For Name’s Sake

Superbly ridiculous interpretation of the 10-year genre that tapped into a personal, reoccurring issue in my life. Slick production all round that justified its otherwise common - but varied - urban Auckland locations. Leans on the performances of its leads and they do a damn good job of it. And that Happy Birthday scene? Bloody ace. The final location kinda tips off the final gag, but the end reveal was a satisfying capper to one of this heat’s strongest films.

Struggled in the opening scene to set the story up but once it got going I thought it was hilarious and well told.

Fun concept. Real cute acting and direction. This was a well-paced short that had a lot of people laughing, good work Lunch Club!
