review written 2/23/2003

Creator Hakan Andersson used to promote this film a lot on the forums, even becoming infamous for his plugs.

Can you blame him?

From the glow of the titles to the amazing starship at the beginning to the excellent compositing work, this is a special effects show that doesn't let up and elevates the small subgenre of "fan films with the guy's kids as the stars" to a new level. The face effect at 2:54 is nothing short of showstopping, and 3:26 is a special-effects comedic moment not to be believed.

Oscar's little dance at 6:10 is utterly charming.

And then, suddenly, it ends.

Okay, it's a little formless, and the music editing needs work. But you won't see some of these effects anywhere else, and that makes it worth a watch.
