"Aspirational" is a 2.5-minute live action short film and possibly the most known work by writer and director Matthew Frsot. The reason why this one is somewhat known is probably lead actress Kirsten Dunst in here. I read she has been tremendous on Fargo recently and she is an actress who despite her relatively young age has been successful in the movie industry for a long time, so no surprise this one draws some attention. But it really isn't convincing. It's basically about Dunst standing outside and waiting and what happens when a duo of girls show up and ask her a somewhat unusual favor. I guess this film is supposed to poke fun at the new media and direction it all takes, but honestly, it just wasn't a funny watch at all. And another problem was that I never felt as I was really watching Dunst herself. She was so much in character that it just wasn't working at all. Really unsatisfying result and even at under 3 minutes a massive waste of time for everybody who isn't a huge Dunst fanboy. Don't watch.
