"Kenzo World" is a live action short film from this year, 2016, that runs for slightly under 4 minutes and takes us on a drug-induced journey with rising actress Margaret Qualley in a green dress. She keeps running around, jumping around, dancing around etc., but I cannot take it seriously at all as the reactions we see are not the reaction that would really result from cocaine. Also it seems unrealistic to me that the location is so empty. The scene where she jumps through the grand eye near the end was probably intended as the artistic highlight of this short movie, but the fact that it may be slightly better than everything before it does not mean it was good or even memorable either. The writer and director of this overlong perfume commercial is Oscar winner Spike Jonze and to me he proves that, even if I like some of his other work, especially "Her", also for him not everyone can be a winner. I give this one a major thumbs-down. It is very much a case of style over substance.
