Why so much hype?

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Quite funny... Very short, classic jokes but somehow makes you laugh...

"Tiny Detective" is writer and director Andrew Bush's take on the successful television show "True Detective". In this 2-minute movie, successful actresses Kate Mara and Ellen Paige (who also would have been a good choice for the "real" show) play the title characters, two women who are police detectives, but constantly run into obstacles due to being very small. That's all there is to it and all the humor relies on that. It's an okay watch at 2 minutes and it's good it does not run any longer as it may have become repetitive at some point otherwise. All in all, I thought this was a good watch and it's not so usual to see stars in short films like these, but Funnyordie actually manages to get some big names frequently for their works. Recommended.
