"Taco Bell: Nacho Fries: Retrieval" is an American short film from 2019 that may already be over when you are finished reading the relatively long title as this one runs for about a minute only. I just watched a 7-minute movie that had 8 writers, but this one here is a 1-minute movie that has five-writers. Not too bad either. Or actually very bad? Because honestly the jokes and puns in here were not any good. It is basically an action movie spoof (Armageddon) where very delicious fries have vanished and the protagonist has to go to space in a government-funded mission to bring them back. Why space? Why fries? It all isn't very clear. But the scenes of the uproar early on with masses panicking on the streets were somewhat funny, so it is not a failure. By the way, they got James Marsden to star in this little comemrcial we got here. So fans of the brand in the title who maybe even like the actor can check this short out. I don't have much of a connection with either, so I give it a thumbs-down overall. And I even like fries in general. But here the dip looks better to me than the fries. Okay I am drifting away from the "film", lets get back to it. Not very much worth seeing and the joke gets old quickly, so I am glad it did not run for longer. Watch something else instead. I really wonder what the budget here was. I believe probably not just a few dollars from how it looked. They should have come up with something of a better quality here then.
