The joke here is that this sequel is about the spread of a disease that sees women all over the world turning into crazy Natalie Portman Black Swan characters in response to men doing anything wrong. So when a guy can't pay for dinner his partner coughs up black feathers, a cheating man gets a text with the famous eye makeup picture and, well, lots of others get the eye-makeup treatment. That's the joke and to make it work the short film needed to be better than this one. As a mock trailer it is a bit too easy and light in terms of structure and it needed more of a "trailer" feel to it as opposed to a sketch – which is always how it felt.

At first the joke is solid but unfortunately the short film just repeats variations of it and it gets less funny every time. A shame because it was amusing at first but it didn't have any real build to it beyond just doing the same joke but progressively louder. As with a lot of the Funny or Die shorts I have watched these last few days – good idea but needed more work.
