This is why you don't make home-made water-balloons out of grocery bags.

Do you enjoy playing "Where's Waldo?" If so, there's a perfect opportunity to catch him in the opening scene of this 11 minute short, simply titled: "11 PM."

A young man on his way home from a soccer game finds himself being pursued by a gang of thugs. Bullying and threatening him, the group -- who seemingly have nothing better to do, take their soccer way too seriously, or have ingested far too much alcohol (take your pick) -- disturbs the sleep of a restless neighbor, which in effect causes an unfortunate accident for a couple of guys with great taste in booze, but horrible taste in music.

If you can tolerate annoying ringtones and homophobic dialogue, "11 PM" is a brief but clever distraction from director Alex Sava, who has an obvious God complex. It's a complete sausagefest, but a minor flaw in an otherwise fun and clever short.

I can clearly see, where this guy got his ideas from

The writer obviously is a big fan of the Simpsons, cause the plot is pretty much a rip-off of the episode "Trilogy of Error". Only blind men don't see that.

Apart from that, we learn, Romanians listen to bad music, have ugly football shirts, run very slowly and punch unrealisticly.

But still it's a pretty nice short movie, cause the dialogues are realistic, doesn't look unnaturally scripted, and even if it's a clone, I like these stories, where one story is shown in several ways ( watch also the movie '11:14').

All in all nice entertainment, worth a watch
