Dan McGee’s Oh No, Guano! tells the story of an individual (Christian PK Reeve) trying to reach a job interview but their attempts are constantly thwarted by a pesky bird in a rather… unfortunate manner.
A good concept and comedic story that wouldn’t feel out of place in a Pixar short.
A good concept and comedic tale that wouldn’t feel out of place in a Pixar short. The wide terrain makes us feel like this guy and his story is the only thing in this world and we need to pay attention to it for the next six minutes.
However, although the premise has legs, there are a few “teething issues”. We could have potentially benefitted from a few more encounters with the poultry pest – as the sudden mental decline of our lead and introduction of the slingshot doesn’t feel entirely earned. And although this comedy doesn’t profess the effects as being the strength of the story, they still pose as a bit of a distraction, not fitting in with the rest of the format.
All and all, an entertaining story and an excellently expressive performance from Reeve who gets across his frustration perfectly, allowing you to have fun at his expense.
