Edit: After getting an email essentially saying they would rather have leprosy than Quicktime on their computer I am adding a 37M .WMV file for download as well.

Howdy,
Here is my first major effort at a short movie. Its about 19:30 and a 70MB download in Quicktime format.
The movie is shot in China and is in English with subtitles for the few Chinese lines. It is intended to be a comedy in along the lines of The Office and Curb Your Enthusiasm. We'll see from the comments whether that intention was realized.
This was a major learning experience and I hope the sound (which is very poor in the bar scene, I know) and lighting issues can be better addressed next time around.
So, my questions: Yes, some of the film/sound/acting is flawed. With the material I have what can be done to make it better? What constructive criticisms do you have? I've seen this so many times, is it even funny at all? With its technical problems is it even worth it to submit to a festival?
That's it, please be honest and thank you for taking the time out of your day!
