The cinematography is great and helps the story in so many ways. I loved it.

OK, Coulson is a bada**. Let's just get this out there. The story might have been something as boring as a gas station robbery but Clark Gregg puts in so much charisma that it is worth the watch. Gregg's Coulson is completely witty in this short as he kind of messes with the robbers until he very easily takes them down. It is very unexpected from someone who we have only seen on the sidelines but it is very welcome. This doesn't add much to the plot of either Iron Man 2 or Thor, it's just good plain fun and something for Clark Gregg to showcase himself with.+ Clark Gregg + Humor + Quick, effective action - Adds nothing to overall story, still fun thoughFinal Score: 8.8/10

I have to say I am a bit surprised that this 3-minute short film is classified as three genres, but comedy is not one of them, because really the only reason this is worth watching is the comedy. Or I should probably say one quote only, namely when he tells the criminals about the gun he has with him. That was pretty hilarious. Their faces right afterward. Other than that, it's fairly forgettable. His jump, i.e. the action sequence, is solid, but nothing memorable. Same goes for the flour package he threw at one of the guys. His response to the clerk's question what to tell to the cops is pretty generic too. For a running time of 2.5 minutes, it's worth a watch, but that's it. Also not too great that the closing credits went longer than half of the action before them. The writer and director worked on other One Shot movies too, while Clark Gregg has appeared in several of the recent Marvel superhero blockbuster films, the other three actors rather unknown. Lets see if one of them gets an acting career where we will look at him in this short film here and say: "Oh look, that is..."

What was meant to be a quick gas and snack stop turns into a bit of a work out for our suited hero.Without breaking into a sweat or getting an iota of dust on his suit Agent Coulson manages to nail two very naughty bad guys with some serious moves and a bit of "wire work" thrown in.(All strings airbrushed - but we know you can't jump that high Phil.)It goes to prove the point that Agent Coulson can use ANYTHING as a weapon and in true hero style he does.Slickly shot with a small amount of dialogue.All in a nights work. : )
