Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

This short is about a bespoke bakery owner, and his employee who makes the cake in the back of the shop.At eight minutes long, "Barry's Bespoke Bakery" does not have much time to delve into a developed plot. It first shows a high end bakery with very nice cakes on display. The owner pays much attention to details, and keeps his bakery meticulously ordered. He seems rather dissatisfied with his sole employee in the kitchen, with what seems to be passive aggressive tension between them. Soon after, the plot takes a twist and turns in an unexpected way. The twist is undoubtedly saccharine, and the cake resulted is truly beautiful - but the plot just not convincing. Maybe it is just not developed enough, with how they disliked each other and then made up. Or it is because viewers are not made to care about the characters."Barry's Bespoke Bakery" is sweet and visually pleasing to watch, and left me hungry for more of the plot to be developed.
