Not even bad in a good way

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Wüstenspringmaus (2002)*** (out of 4) Funny documentary short from Jim Finn tells us the history and other interesting facts about the wustenspringmaus, better known by its English name the gerbil. This short lasts just under three minutes and for the most part it's pretty entertaining thanks to the visual style Finn gives it. What we've basically got is the narrator telling us the history as well as subtitles running at the bottom of the screen. While we learn about the history we can see a gerbil running around at the bottom of the screen and then there's rear-projection footage in the background. This isn't a masterpiece of any sort and its appeal will probably be limited but those who like to break away from the mainstream and see something different but original should get a kick out of it.
