"Right Place Wrong Tim" is a British 7-minute (almost 1 of these are closing credits) live action short film from 2018 and this one got some awards recognition too. The writer and director is the multi-talented Eros Vlahos, otherwise a prolific actor and also active in more fiels. This is far from his first filmmaking credit. So yeah, this is a little spoof of an old sitcom and even if this was just sort of the introduction, I felt this film peaked early when father and daughter have an awkward talk about where the daughter was that results in hands, jobs and screwing if you know what I mean. I found it funny and had it kept this level, I may have given it an even higher rating. Ella Purnell is stunning and talented and you can see Adam Buxton has been a prolific actor for a long time. When Asa Butterfield enters the picture, it becomes clear who the star is and not entirely in a good way. I still enjoyed his story line admittedly, but Buxton being killed off and Purnell no idea where she went being moved to the background resulted in a slight loss of quality because at some point it is about nobody else anymore but Tim who keeps producing one evil clone after the next and at some point they just start killing each other for whatever reason, for no reason actually, they are just evil. The result is blood splash everywhere and quite the massacre you certainly did not see happening when the film began. And the crowd keeps applauding in the most generic manner as you have seen it so often on old sitcoms. I think this was an okay watch. If you like or even love Butterfield, you can really go for this one and it is almost a must-see. If not, you can still check it out, little fun film we got here. I give it a thumbs-up.
