Boring

As Good As It Gets

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

"Take This Lollipop" is a 2.5-minute comedy spoof film that acts as if it is a horror movie. The main character is a Facebook stalker, or a lollipop? Not sure really. In any case, this is 3 minutes of nothing. I cannot come up with one single reason why one should watch this Jason Nickel/Jason Zada short film. It's not funny, it's not creepy and it's certainly not dramatically relevant. I am truly surprised about the rating this one has here on IMDb. We hear people talk, but have no idea who they are and what they are rambling on about. Looking at the talent (or lack thereof) in here, I cannot say I am surprised that Zada hasn't made a new film in the last 4 years since this one was made. Thumbs down. Not recommended.

Browsing about viral marketing tips, I came across the website takethislollipop.com. I was hesitant initially to connect my Facebook but when I eventually did, I was taken aback by the sheer awesomeness of the output.A man, a psychopathic hit-man perhaps, is staring at the screen and the screen has all your information - the Facebook profile. You will be shocked to see the pure spontaneity of the video when it advances to a more horrid climax. The score is simply frightening & the 5 minutes were nothing less of an actual nail-biter.Go check it out for this isn't something you experience everyday.
