2.5 StarsThe beginning of this short was really cute, but I just didn't feel like I got much more information than what I already knew from the blurb.
The premise was a bit of a stretch, but it could have still worked for me if I had felt that by the end I knew something about the characters. Even it it had been a fairy tale I would have liked just a bit more emotion in the characters. I feel like I barely knew anything by the end, there was not much to them. I mean travel all that way to be disappointed by finding out the guy you are looking for 1. Died in a tragic accident or 2. Has a fiancee which means you have no chance, and to just kinda shrug it off and leave...Barely a reaction at all. That really didn't work for me.
By the end I felt like I had just read a beginning or an ending, but not a complete story.
Very sweet idea, it just didn't satisfy me as much as I hoped.
