Pigeon Impossible



Pigeon Impossible
WALT write a movie review

There is a short animation created by Martell Animations called ‘Pigeon Impossible’. The animation is inspired by other famous spy movies like James Bond & Mission Impossible.

It is based in Washington DC with a spy in a black & white tuxedo & sunglasses getting handed a silver briefcase.

He sits down on a dark green wooden bench eating a bagel and opens the case by pressing down with his thumb. Then a pigeon appears wanting the bagel but accidently gets stuck inside the briefcase. He tries to control it, causing a lot of trauma.

I quite liked the part where the pigeon was trying to control the briefcase and the laser beam just missed the spy by a few centimeters. It was pretty funny that the red light was just a result of the strange pigeon pecking at the controls inside the briefcase.

As the story goes on it seems like the pigeon knew how to control it. How did the pigeon know how to control a briefcase? After all, he was supposed to be a pigeon! He could shoot laser beams and a lot of other stuff that a pigeon should not know how to do! I thought that was weird and wrong!

I also didn’t like all the characters in this film. The man had a strange face shape and a tiny mouth which made him look weird when he ate while the pigeon looked more like a tui & also had me puzzled on it’s gender. I found them really quite weird.

Overall I didn't like this movie and I would recommend not wasting your time watching it. I give it 1 and a half stars out of 5 because the whole scenario was pointless as it could have been avoided completely. So rather than entertaining me it just frustrated me.

Walking to the cabin

I jogged through the forest to a cabin . . .

WALT describe

It was a bright sunny day and I was jogging through the trees on the forest path towards the clearing. It was Autumn so the leaves were all different shades from orange to brown, yellow to red. When I reached the clearing, I stared all around. The clearing was covered with leaves of all the same shades which were most likely from the trees that circled around the clearing. In the middle, a cascade of lights shone down on the thick, rich soil and the large elegant iron cabin standing before me. The roof of corrugated iron was very shiny and the rest of the cabin was also very sleek and elegant, yet it still seemed to completely blend in with it’s surroundings.

The cabin was also really close to the sea, so through the trees I could just glimpse the sparkling sea traveling up shore, running through the shimmery golden sand trying to reach the luscious green grass that grew around the beach and into the clearing sprouting out of the ground and reaching for the sun. I bounded up the front stairs, there was four all together and none of them creaked at all! I opened the front door. . .
