Storyline
Featured review
Well-written and funny!
Though "Crooks" is a short film of only 7 minutes or so, it is nonetheless a great one. This fun twist on the sudden obsession with reality t.v. takes a look at several different criminals, all who seem to see the world through demented (yet strangely amusing) lens, evident not just in their crimes but in their justification of them. There are three different "crime scenes" and criminals highlighted in this film, and each scene gets more amusing. This short film is very well written, well acted and well produced. It has some great one-liners, but it's not merely an occasional line that makes this short film funny and good; overall, the idea is creative and well executed. Its biggest crime is that it ended too soon! Is there a "Crooks 2" in the future?!
