They're definitely hot! So hot and so funny!

Picture Dave Franco looking at you telling all the sexy things he wants to do with you. The first image of this short film, a comic sketch from Funny or Die, already grabs you and you're already watching it. But next thing you know the object of desire isn't the viewer; Dave is telling those to Christopher Mintz-Plasse who later on replies with a similar, followed by another reply by Dave and it's a western duel, each other teasing each other, moving a step further until....That final moment!

What's the idea? Both "Superbad" stars play with each other by starting with the line "You're so hot" and finishing the sentence by telling what of exciting they wanna do with each other. Not an easy thing to do, specially when these two adorable guys keep "fighting" each other with powerful, hilarious (some infamous) lines at each other, yet they can't laugh, it's a battle. Not just for the laughs but also to let them both excited. The opening scene is already a web classic, mostly because it's taken out of context and used it just in the way I presented in the beginning of this review. Dave is talking to you and not with Chris, and that's just wow!

Not the kind of idea admired by large (and prejudicial) crowds but who cares? If you don't like that kind of humor, stay away from this. If curious, definitely go forward cause you won't regret it and you'll probably watch this more than just one time. Amazingly well written and greatly performed, a must-see, indeed. 10/10

Awkwardness instead of comedy

Warning: Spoilers
Well the title of this 4-minute film "You're So Hot with Chris Mintz-Plasse and Dave Franco" says pretty much everything that this is about including the names of the two pretty overrated actors. Director is Emmy nominee Brian McGinn, but the direction is minimal and acting is not much more existent either as the two stand next to each other saying "hot" things in some kind of weird challenge that pretty much never would happen in real life. The twist near the end we find out about with the camera moving further away is one that sinks the film even lower than it already was. The artistic impact of this film I did not see at all. It was more about shocking the audience and all about making a pretty awkward film. They may have succeeded from that perspective, but not in a good way at all. And if they had any bravery, then they would not have blurred out certain truths. Oh well, this one is 100% Die, 0% Funny. Don't watch.
