That may be the most positive thing I can say about this short... but it's hardly the only one. This makes for a fun couple of minutes, and the idea and execution are well-done. The plot is simple, but sustains your interest for the duration. Pacing is good, this doesn't overstay its welcome. Acting isn't bad. Writing is probably Bertocci's strongest(at least as far as the most immediately noticeable) film-making talent, and this helps prove it... in the hands of a lesser writer, this wouldn't be anywhere near this remarkable. The cinematography is impressive, considering what the guy had to work with. The editing is spot-on. The story-telling device(you'll know what I mean if you watch) is put to good use. The lines are clever. This is just under five minutes long, complete with credits. Sound is fine. Not all of the comedy works, but the humor is mostly great. Bertocci makes great use of what he has at his immediate disposal, and definitely shows himself to be both creative and crafty. This should perhaps not be watched by anyone not at least a teenager, there is a mature theme or two. I recommend this to any fan of short films and quirky comedy. 7/10

Adam Bertocci goes Woody Allen style, in this fun movie with some great and fun dialog.

"Sparky" is a great one man show by and with Adam Bertocci. The best thing is the dialog which is really entertaining and fun most of the time.

It's just too bad that this movie is so short. The story had a lot more potential and the ending was kind of abrupt. I think, had been the movie been twice longer, it would have even been a better one.

Still "Sparky" is a perfectly entertaining short movie that is really well worth watching.

8/10
