Entertaining, Quirky, Funny, Confusing, Ambitious

See it if You want to see a short comedy about two mismatched people trying to survive the world's end & dealing with question of re-population.

Don't see it if End of the world comedy is not your thing. Addition of perky narrator controlling the goings on was confusing. Sudden loud noise startles.
