This film made me believe that story doesn't has to be grand scale or to have perfect ending, story can be of simple things and without any message. It's just that how you feel while watching it. It's just that emotions. I'm greatful for the makers hope you guys very good luck in future projects.

Umm..didn't you get that the narrator came in as part of an essential plot device as well as adding some entertaining camp comedy through a fourth wall break narrative ....followed by him actually changing the whole game by narrating where the dude was about to come up on the car with the knife.....hence she opened the door and smashed his head cuz she had that tip off....it was actually amazingly done ...slipped in so perfectly and not overdone....but ya..narrator became essential at that point....good times😊😁

Mr. Blake Ridder. This is an absolute elegance. It was total thrill to the mind. I've watched it twice and still I'm finding many questions unanswered within my mind. Now probably I can make an inference about what might be the shadowed meaning of the short movie. Movie titled " A simple robbery" where it has been beautifully designed about how a simply intended things goes wrong and beyond our thoughts when plans don't go our way. A simple thing can turn to be grievous. A simple robbery turned to a murder which they might never had thought. Comparing Kim and stacy, I found stacy to be less conscious than kim by the fact that : 1. When Jon denied those two " bad girls" for lift, stacey was insisting more and kim didn't want to bother more and asked to let them go. 2. Kim smelt the awful smell and looked for every passenger sniffed them but stacey was not much concerned abt it. She even didn't know. When the guy, Jon said he isnt the rich guy. We can probably say that he actually murderer the person kept in booth and robbed the car and fleed. On the way he found those girls. Jon couldn't endure more and as soon as he opened booth, Jon killed a girl.another girl escaping from there and coming back to car to run away. And finally she killed Jon. So it is all about how one behaves in unexpected circumstances and small things turns to be extremely big. Thank you blake. Love you.

Was hooked right from the opening credits! The american narration and comic undertone was clever, giving this another layer and made me feel ever so slightly at ease in the suspense moments! Professional acting and interesting characters, which is so hard to develop in such a short space of time, so kudos to the team!

It appears that commentor olivia (and others below) missed Becky's backtalk against the narrator at 10:18. 10:18 *Narrator*: becky frantically searches for the car 10:20 keys to make a quick getaway before the 10:22 men return 10:23 *Becky*, looks directly into camera: you really need to say that -- the audience 10:25 can clearly see what the [ __ ] i'm doing When you watch a Blake Ridder film, you have to pay attention to the details.
Man does not have a penny but produces a film. I liked what you did there at 10:23 😂.
