Reviews

8

This short is very good because the story feels totally complete while still serving up some tense moments. Subtext is there and the ending shows character development not always seen in a short of this length.

7

Not many people would react the way the main character of this film did. You can never know other people's problems, so you should treat everyone the same.

6

Everyone has a reason for their behaviour and everyone reacts differently to situations. Dinner Guest explores this in the context of a break-in, but also looks at personal strength and strength of character in a compelling and unique scenario.
