A cute start, but so so painfully awkward at the end

I've been sitting on this review for a while. Because all-in-all, it was a good idea. And the cast did a pretty good job at demonstrating the jealousy, shyness, and longing of their characters. But this short film's progressions was quite weird. Apparently, being so friendly that they must be in a relationships means a high five and weird jumping side hug? Even if someone took a picture to make the encounter out of context, there was nothing about that interaction that would warrant the love interest's jealousy.

The continuity with the popsicles was also so glaring that I couldn't take my eyes off of it. Well, until we got into the "kiss." They should have stuck to holding hands. Or cuddling next to each other while eating the ice cream or watching a movie. I'm not even sure if their lips were actually touching, because they were very much off to the side of each other. It looked painfully awkward. And then after the credits roll one pushes the other down on the bed. I lost what little bit of immersion I had gained back after the jealousy moment that I just can't bring myself to like this.

But the inching hands together during their study session at the beginning of the film was very cute.

cute but hilarious

I really don’t want to insult anyone, but i found this funny 😭for a 7 minute video, the story itself isn’t bad, maybe a bit “poor” but not bad.
the problems were the voiceovers, that stopped when they weren’t over talking, the sounds of stuff, and the complete silence when they weren’t going anything🤔there was like this music in the background and nothing else..
the acting wasn’t bad but not very very good, there can be some improvements.
what I found most funny was the ice cream changing in every clip, that’s what the 1 point rewatching value is for!
if y’all don’t have nothing to do, watch it because it’s only 7 minutes..
