I’m going to go on record and say that this is one of the most baddest ass action clips I’ve ever seen.  There are a number of how-the-f*ck-did-they-do-that? moments sprinkled throughout this short to leave the most ambitious aspiring action director rethinking his/her craft.  The ingenuity and use of resources are astounding in this video, which highlights an office escape that leads to a car chase that leads to a construction site fight and more.  I’ve heard this referred to as RESERVOIR DOGS on speed or CRANK with a GoPro.  No matter what comparison you make, this is some truly kick ass shit. 

The short is a sequel to Insane Office Escape, once again directed by Russian filmmaker Ilya Naishuller, a truly inspired and creative fellow.  With any luck, this will inspire some filmmakers stepping into the action genre to innovate their work.  I’m not saying we need an entire movie shot like this, but taking a few cues from the energy and ingenuity would be a wise choice.
