Concept: C
Story: F
Characters: F
Dialog: F
Pacing: C
Cinematography: C
Special effects/design: C
Acting: F
Music: B
Enjoyment: It's pretty good music, which is all that should really matter with this sort of short, except that it's not quite good enough to warrant a filmed performance. And no one has much in the way of stage presence (except for the drummer, who is awesome). C

GPA: 1.3/4
