Young (Caught). Robert Knott and Xander Berkeley star as Dobbitt and Hanrahan, two working stiffs who have left their families and homes behind for jobs in a strange factory that produces ambiguous products. Against an animated backdrop, the two bunkmates are forced to work under a conniving supervisor who is intentionally manipulating the men. Also featuring Berkeley's real-life spouse, Sarah Clarke, Human Error (formerly titled Below the Belt) screened as part of the Frontier program at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
All too accurately lives up to its title.
-
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
With the exception of likable lead Robert Knott, the performances are cringingly broad, and the surreally animated backgrounds offer a promise that's never realized.
-
Ned Martel, New York Times
None of the three principal actors are unskilled, and they somehow don't lose on-screen energy, even as it's sapped from the audience.
-
Peter L'Official, Village Voice
Watch it with your eyes closed.
-
Marty Mapes, Movie Habit
A three-man play, a blend of CG and live action, a wry comedy, and paced far too slow
