The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

one of many short films with teenagers seductive for reflection of a state. holiday, a competition, a boy looking the attention of his father. and a nice choice in the lead role. and it is enough for a film who has as the axis the atmosphere. because nothing surprising defining "Franswa Sharl". except smiles, laughs, memories, and a prank of a boy. all like a fresh drink in the middle of summer day.

"Franswa Sharl" is an Australian 14-minute live action short film by writer and director Hannah Hilliard. It is difficult to take this film seriously. Some people will say it is about showing us the boy's true identity, but I disagree with that. It was just a (not so) funny prank in my opinion. Also the parts about the son longing for the father's attention were fairly forgettable. Overall, this film is a disappointment. It is fairly atmospheric and the vibe is pretty fine, but that is not enough to make up for the lack of convincing storytelling. This does not make me curious about other works by the director and I do not recommend checking it out. Thumbs down. The acting isn't too good either.
