    Topman! You got out there and made something. I kinda liked this even though the concept was a simple one. Would like to see more by this guy :)

  • Cute! Nice idea, I thought you could've done more with it, but your form- the editing was great. Made me laugh! Good job- please keep trying because even though this wasn't the best, it made me want to see more films from you, so rock on!

    If Monty Python were to make a come back this would be one of their sketches. Very funny, good timing and editing. Keep on filming.

    Very clever- At first the irony makes you question the plot- Did he crash on Earth and is he delirious...well yes, but big twist at the end

    Hey James. I can see why Moon Shot UK is rocketing up the most viewed chart! I read the story like this: the space traveller aborted from the take off and was delerius (but still on earth!) So the twist at the end puts another spin on events!
    Well performed, well edited, and you got a camera movement on a sfx shot, which ain't easy (nice tracking!)
    Make another!
    Leepy :-)

    Very funny short film, the performance was great!

    The vfx shot could do with some work though, the particles looked a bit out the box and dodgy. Lighting and texturing also needed a bit of work. Its the only thing that took me out of the story.

    Made me chuckle - if the UK did a moon shot this is how it WOULD end up - a glorious dissaster on the beach at Skeggy!! Nice work, lets have some more.

    moderatley good sketch for a bbc3 comedy show i'm guessing this guy has a bit of a following where ever he,s based wich would explain the myriad viewings and rave reviews can't believe anyone would laugh out loud watching this.nothing wrong with it but can't see it winning far more deserving movies than this one ie after you,stolen moments and a dogs best friend.

    As I´ve said, nice for a sketch, but not cinematic at all. I think the diff between a skecth and a short film is that a short film is a film, that´s like, shorter, whereas a skecth like this, wants to be on Griff and Jones. Nice for what it is - TV - but as a film... give me a break. It´ll get thru!

    Okay, that last comment was a bit harsh. But as a few people have said, it does look like a TV sketch rather than something more... cinematic.
