Watch U.F.Oh Yeah For Free

Absolutely the worst movie.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

"U.F.Oh Yeah" is the newest work by renowned short film director Ryan Connolly. It runs for 5 minutes and stars his brother Josh as the only actor in the film. As you may have guessed from the title, it is a mix of comedy and science fiction. A fat guy sees a UFO coming down near his place and he goes to welcome the guys. But the encounter does not go exactly as planned. The film is really about this encounter and the comedic moment there. Without this scene, it probably would not even deserve 4 stars. Unfortunately the production values are low and I am surprised Connolly's films have such a positive reception as I hardly see anything special in them. The biggest problem here is that the makeup work is really not good at all. It's obvious that he is wearing a fat suit and this hurts the film even more as his weight is a core plot point. Not a good outcome. Not recommended.

I loved Film Riot years ago, and I really enjoyed the other shorts they produced. To me, this short was nothing. This reminded me of a skit that would be made by a SNL short director, however the film lacked the comedic value. I know the gargantuan Film Riot fan-base will come at me for this, but quite frankly I am more than OKAY with that. I know that film riot is just trying to utilize all the new gear and visual effects that they did not have access to before, but maybe I just miss the old film riot. For a positive note, the film was visually appealing. The cinematography was definitely the only plus I saw. I felt the storytelling was off.. Within five minutes Ryan didn't really encapsulate me, nor did he impress me, and nor did I find the story even worth my time..As of now, I am not pleased with how this short came out. Bark at me all you want.

This is the first time that Ryan has made a sci-fi short film and yet it has proved to be the best one yet. It is a sci-fi with a mix of comedy. This short compared to the previous ones has much better production quality. The behind the scenes for the film is available on their youtube channel, where Ryan also shows some of the Technics that went into making the short. The movie is able to capture the audience in the very beginning, over all its a great short. You can watch the short on youtube. The story revolves around just one character, but it still keeps you interested. The short was directed by Ryan Connolly and the dp was Ryan Booth.

I've been following the Film Riot team for over 5 years and they have always inspired me to make films. This film here is truly why I love their work. The lighting, cinematography, acting and direction are well executed here. It's a fun story with a great ending. The Film Riot team really pulled out the stops for this one and they were very successful with it.If you need a laugh, this is worth the watch. It's 5 minutes of your life, that you should spend on this little gem. Then go and find their behind-the-scenes they did on this, and see how much effort went into this production. Ryan makes every effort to teach you how everything came into place and show you all the struggles and successes. It's worth 5 minutes of your life, especially if you're a budding filmmaker.Ryan and the Film Riot team, thanks for the great film, my wife and I loved it.
