TARGET JEREMY is an action-adventure spy thriller featuring quirky humor, unexpected betrayal, and complex characters. The story follows a Special Agent who cannot feel pain on a seemingly innocent road trip to Babylon, which escalates into a violent climax.

Review by Julie Sheppard:

Target Jeremy takes us straight into the heart of danger, per the Chinese proverb off the top of this US short. It is a riveting depiction of a CIA rescue in the Middle East. The storyline keeps us on the edge — will our hero make it out alive, and complete his government mission?

The actor playing David gives a masterful performance as a wide-eyed, innocent tourist, placing himself in grave danger, who transitions to a first-rate special agent. Another actor, playing a kidnapper who drives David into the desert, does a fabulous job portraying a sly Middle Eastern man, supposedly craving connection with the West. The actors playing the two bickering cousins provide humanness and dimension, much like the two likeable characters in Pulp Fiction, Vincent and Jules.

The lightening-speed editing is stylish and effective, notably during the gripping fight choreography. Scenes transition smoothly between CIA offices and the dusty Middle Eastern desert. The soundtrack is thrilling and upbeat for this high-energy action flick.

Viewers are indeed sent straight into the heart of danger, and then breathe a sigh of relief when rescued.
