What would the world be like if adults acted like children? Too scary? Okay, how about if the adults acted like children just while eating lunch? Writer-director Sneha Mendes’s Bad Lunch looks at just that. Take a 2-minute laugh break to watch Brendan Smoller and Dhwani Shah eat spaghetti like aggressive, competitive, and reckless children.

“…eat spaghetti like aggressive, competitive, and reckless children.”
This short film is a sharable comedy sketch that will surely make your friends with kids laugh. It’s relatable, simple, and funny. However, there is a missed opportunity to heighten the back-and-forth between the characters. It doesn’t get as silly as it could have, which is disappointing.
Shorts like Bad Lunch are important because they have the power to entice viewers to get out and make their own sketches with friends.
