5 Second Films is an ongoing project by Brian Firenzi. Each film consists of two seconds of opening credits, five seconds of story, followed by one second of ending credits — the perfect format for people with short attention spans. The video above contains the twenty films that Firenzi considers to be his best. Content warning: NSFW language.

    Skip this.

    Good concept, bad execution. Bad viral.

    Next time they should cut it to only ten films.

    The quality slipped real fast after a promising start.

    Actually, “Late For Work” is really funny (Fu-u-u-u-u-u-u-ck!). Most others, meh.

    You shouldn’t gloss your own films as “Top 20″ or “Top Anything” though….

    About five of them made me laugh out loud. The rest were so-so, but I thought the good ones were great.

    It’s hard to get really upset about sitting through a bad movie when it’s only five seconds long. Heck, I saw “Leonard Part 6″ in the theater; there’s two hours of my life I’ll never get back.

    Unimaginative. Confuse shouting and blood with humor.

    I think the brilliance of 5 Second Films is in showcasing the power of editing. The good ones (and there are lots) tell a mini-story in five seconds. That’s what I love about editing. And Late for Work was the best here.

    “Late for Work” and “Forgetful” were my favorites.

    These are my College friends and I am happy to see them getting some promotion. Especially since my favorite blog is posting on them.
