- A hitman runs into TH-camrs.
SERGEY'S FORTUNE is used with permission from Peter Mackie. Learn more at cinetone.net.
Sergey, a hard-boiled man who works in Little Odessa, is on a mission to redeem himself with his boss after botching an assignment. A consummate professional, he wants to fix his mistakes, not just for his reputation but for his own pride.
But things go awry in the middle of his attempt to fix everything, and in the worst place possible: the middle of the desert. When his car breaks down, the only people around who can lend a hand are a group of "bro-y" TH-camrs called the DGAF Bros.
Much to the befuddlement of the hitman, the DGAF crew turn the occasion into a video for their channel. As much as the hitman tried to take control of the situation, the TH-camrs' obnoxiousness proved to be more formidable an obstacle than Sergey could have imagined -- and ultimately endangers the mission.
Written by Nick Vitale and directed by Peter Mackie, this short possesses a very Tarantino-like mix of action, thriller and comedy, blending sharp and stylish high-stakes action sequences with a particular and goofy TH-cam subculture, to humorous effect.
It's almost as if two very different types of genres and sensibilities collide into one film, unified by stylish, sleek camerawork and cinematography. Though the characters and action can be gleefully anarchic and out of control, the craftsmanship is impeccable and precise.
Both genres -- action-thriller and broad comedy -- are big in terms of movement impact, but they're balanced with a smart, engaging script and attendant editing that demonstrates a deft control of structure and pacing and takes advantage of the disparate genres and exploits them for great humor.
In many ways, the two strands of the film explore two different kinds of manhood, one classic and almost old-fashioned and the other with a new contemporary resonance and prominence, thanks to new social and streaming media. There's the strong, silent, hard-boiled and macho stereotype of Sergey, played with a consistent restraint by actor Yorgos Karamihos, and then there's the energetic, goofy Peter Pan-like manchild, embodied by actors Nick Mutuma and Hudson Long. Watching them try to make sense of one another, much less work together, is hilarious -- until the true stakes of the situation are revealed to all, to knuckle-biting effect.
SERGEY'S FORTUNE is engaging and fun, and though it takes a little time to set up its titular character's dilemma and world, the pacing and plot pick up and then each event drops with the momentum of dominoes falling. Its cultural juxtapositions feel both fresh and classic and beg for a deeper creative exploration that would perfect for a feature-length story. It's escapist, stylish and perfect popcorn entertainment that's smart, subversive and a great cinematic ride.
He sealed his fate when he pissed on the road instead of behind the car
Pretty much.....
I thought that was really weird too. Even on a completely empty stretch of road I don’t know why anyone wouldn’t go to the other side of the car to piss.
True.
I was thinking the same thing. There were plenty of bushes to choose from, but nooooo, he desecrated an American Landmark.
Ballsy move
Sad. I was hoping Sergey was going to take 'em out
Bruh! Me, too! I was hoping to see their blood splattered all over the asphalt.
They really deserved it, that moment where he loses his car and they drive off with his face planted in the road you really feel for the guy; we cannot have lose ends though
To a nice steak dinner amirite?
Yup, they were THAT annoying!
This film is a tragedy. I liked Sergey.
"Man children" is definitely the phrase that describes those guys...I could barely watch this
Hahaha so true
That just means theyre probably really good at playing a character
The girl too was being a bit of a *****.
@@organicmilk5 No, it means they are adults who act like children.
@@denierdev9723 soo.. acting? Lol
It's like Logan Paul's japan vlog meets Jason Statham's character in Transporter
Except the Driver would refuse to let them vlog helping him
LOL! That's a spot on description!
😂😂
Excellent observation
Wish the Hitman didn't die.
I know right 😂😂
“These man children” yup that is a great accurate representation for these kinds of people that probably no one has up with before
Says the one who has a fortnite picture as their avatar
Legendary Monkey yep
Legendary Monkey I’m a kid tho
@@Elliot88088 u have a grown brain, the way u talk, though
@@Elliot88088 ur cool
Bruhhh. RIP Sergey. Not even a hitman should get done like that
i thought no one else noticed
@@amber-wr4gb I was hoping the news story was they vanished or were offed by a hit squad
@@coreym162 well that's most likely since they compromised their assassination mission and the identity of an agent.
True
Why'd he get shot
The saddest part is that this isn't even an exaggerated representation of some youtubers
The apology vid at the end was better than most other TH-camr apologies
Everything with Emily Ratajkowski in it has to be good.
Thank you for the tip. I need to remember that these little videos sometimes have cute things in the credits
The last sentence killed me😆😅🤣😂
You had me at "obnoxious youtubers" (oh dont get me wrong - some wonderful creators out there - and awesome channels like this)... just YEAH - "obnoxious youtubers" I'm on the hitman's side without even watching... lol
Yip watched it - still on hitman's side - more so than ever... and oh gee, wonder what brothers on youtube could be that obnoxious...
With you on that. Hitman all the way. *"Obnoxious TH-camrs?"* Goddamn......
They remind of the Dobre Brothers. Never watched a single one of their vids but watched tons of my favourite channels ripping them apart.
Meh. Still on the “obnoxious youtubers” side. Like for god sake, this man takes people’s lives. A batshit disgusting person.
Yeah i was like is he gonna kill them
So great movie, don't get me wrong. But a real hitman would never let himself be filmed or videotaped. As soon as these four said they wanted to VLOG it, I would have walked away and looked for someone else to help me.
Yeah... Sergey was incompetent.
Oh yeah cause you’re a professional hitman right?
@@chideraonyibor6816 Well. He was. I mean he hasn't responded, so clearly he said too much.
@@jondoh9414 Duh! His victim was still alive! He didn't double check! Maybe he's gotten rusty.
Good point. No, I am not a professional hitman. Nor have I ever been one. Nor do I know anyone who's ever been a professional hitman. And I would not be at liberty to discuss such missions, if they did in fact exist.
She hit him with a phone and he is knocked out
Total B.S.!
what B.S mean?
Yeah.... very unrealistic: most social media junkies would prefer to risk getting shot than damaging their smart phones.
it was a rock or something, hr phone was pink and this wasn't a rectangle
Jack CroFT never you mind sweetie
@@jackcroftheripper It's a bad bad word that only crude people use.
'I will have your body scattered in different time-zones'
Animals and normal gross people: pees on soil or something absorbent
Russian hitman: pees on concrete and gets maximum splash back
He was Ukrainian...
He was peeing on route 66, not just concrete.
*LESSON:*
● Put vehicle in "Park" mode
● Keep engine idling @500 RPM
@@absalomlwande1154 For people far, all sounds the same.
Maybe he would still be alive if he hadn't done it! LOL
He didn’t even drink the whole bottle of milk
cause he DGAF!
Yeah he just threw the bottle away but it still had kefor
Maybe it was half empty
that was the best milk
It was buttermilk to coat his stomach
The dead man coming back to life was a sign from the universe for Sergey to maybe start living life differently from now on, as the damage was kinda undone but well, it was just not meant to be ... the actor is very handsome though ;)
He is a Greek actor and was a good one at that
He also looks like Epstein
Love that Tarantino zoom
Sergio Leone's, you mean?
The car wasn't working, the man who came back to life drove it away. Wtf. A strong Hitman was hit on the head by a girl with a phone and got knocked out. It was indeed a miracle.
The battery was jumped before the trunk opened and the target rolled out.
Part of the miracle !
@@greggi47
No it wasn't. It was clear from Sergey's exasperation that the car had not yet been fixed while the noxius duo were having fun and when the trunk opened. Nowhere was it indicated that the car had been already fixed.
The battery cables weren't connected, so why wasn't sergei gone after the "battery jump"?
It was a pleasure playing the vape addicted goon of the grocery store alongside Yorgos and Ravil!
That's neat!
Nice work mate, I wish guys like yourselves made feature-length films, I'd definitely watch them!
However, I do understand the expenses and complexities involved, so there is that, all the best to you and yours! 🤝
Cute too..lol
Great job acting!
Nice dude
the end genuinely saddens me, rip comrade
"Comrade"? Are you Ukrainian or an assassin?
If the second, don't kill me for asking, I'm your Subscriber Number 9. I like your videos.
in this business you really can't afford loose ends or incompetence.
According to Dante, murderers were cast down into the seventh circle of Hell, to be tortured in a flaming river of blood. This would seem to be preferable to having to spend an eternity trapped with the social stunted, self-absorbed, adult children depicted here. Perhaps Hell should upgrade its torments. It, upon reflection, seems to have fallen behind the times in terms of torture.
So one thing I’ve learned in life is that people like these kids have always existed. They’re just more noticeable now. Society can’t fix problems it’s unaware of, so we’re on the right track to a better world, hopefully.
@@slippydouglas I do find myself agreeing with you. While I am not over much given to optimism where human motivation is concerned, I am very gratified lately to see an upsurge in humanities collective spirit. From the Me Too Movement, Black Lives Matter, recognition of gay rights, removal of Confederate monuments, etc. It is as though we have begun to reach an awakening as a people that has started to spread around the world. It is a challenging yet gratifying time to live in. And yes, you are no doubt also right in assuming that kids like this have always existed. Hopefully we will survive that as well.
An eternal flaming river blood sound's worse.
lmao wtf. wasnt expecting this.
"Hell is empty,the demons are here"-Shakespeares
Obnoxious TH-camrs always ruin everything.
Yes even their Careers COUGH* cancel culture 🤢
"I have to make a phone call and make your body scattered in 4 different time zones"
Totally bad-ass Sergey
This is the most intently my cat has ever watched anything on the internet.
There's like at least a dozen mistakes Sergey made, Sergey is incompetent.
Like letting those irritating trash people live. I would've taken them all out with a silenced gun in 5 seconds. If I were a hitman, that is. And by trash people, I mean those idiot TH-camrs.
@@cahidijoyoraharjo7833 oh please tell me more about how you would have taken them out before they jumped your car in hopes that none of the ran to the jeep as soon as the first one dropped.... plus if he had a gun he would have used it on the target anyway....didn't think your plan out too much, did you?
@@cahidijoyoraharjo7833 too much cleaning + alot of people + they are not your targets, you're not getting paid to kill them + too much loose ends
@@mahmoud19712011 They'd be the loose ends, cause they have seen his face. Especially when there's a camera involved. Definitely will leave a trace. Which means they have to be eliminated, no matter what. Well, maybe not with a gun. Guns are messy. Gotta make it look like an accident.
Yes, and the TH-camrs are still alive.
Am I the only one who recognised the Greek actor Giorgos karamihos as the Sergey? 😝 great performance
Dashing guy ...
I thought it was familiar face
i was looking for that comment
Yeah I realized immediately that he is Greek, hairy, with a strong jaw and that accent is sooo Greek
And nobody is gonna comment on the apology at the end of the film? Really??? THAT WAS HILARIOUS!!! 🤣🤣🤣
all the way
I would have missed it if somebody hadn't referred to it. I keep forgetting how often added bits come after the credits in vids and movies.
@@greggi47 always wondered why so much time left at the end. Thanks lol
@@greggi47 Um K! I could've done without seeing the end of this one 🤦🏼♀️😂😂
The protagonist is considered as one of the best actors in Greece. He delivered the roles of a psychopath,perfectionist and even a snob lawyer perfectly. WAY TO GO MA MAN
YESSS, A KING! 🇬🇷
Hahaha. That boss was drinking Keifer. It’s hard to look hard while drinking thick dairy products, but he pulled it off.
real tough guy doesn't care about looking tough.
Delicious humour, bitter irony. What else could one ask for? Brilliant.
I'm glad I clicked on this. Just recognised that Kenyan actor Nick Mutuma from MTV Shuga. I hope he gets more acting jobs. Nice short film.
I thought I was the only one!
I'm here for him💃🏾
Manzeeeeee. So proud
Was trying to figure out where I knew him from.
Nick mutuma
Had a good short laugh and immediately thought about jake paul, shane dawson amd jeffree star. Oh what a day.
Another wonderful short! I love how the characters are so opposite - an older Russian dude (with an accent) and young American kids (with their Millenial "speak" accents). Sergei drives a vintage Chevy and wears vintage clothing and has a flip phone while the kids are wearing T-shirts ("Frunk as Duck") and have smartphones and a GoPro - the old days vs the new days
Uh, I think Sergei is a Millennial while the kids are Gen Z.
Mixed of Russian and Ukrainian language, very intresting, lol...
who else paused at the sight of not one, not two, but three payphones
the way the youtubers act is so painfully on point
While -Dude Perfect- D.G.A.F. did screw things up for him, Sergey was ultimately responsible for his own failure.
What good is a hitman who can’t finish a kill and doesn’t perform basic vehicle maintenance prior to a hit?
Plot
And that's why he shot, no matter how much empathy you may have for him, he failed horribly
So your problem with his car is maintenance? Come on. You need a modern reliable car like a Toyota or Honda not a 1969 Chevy Impala.
It wasn his car...he took the clients`s car
@@diyasoni2791 WTF I NEVER KNEW THERE WERE POST-CREDITS THANK YOU
Sergey just met Jake Paul's mob. He's doomed forever!
They even nailed the apology video omg
Here to support our very own Nick Mutuma❤❤❤
I knew that was him 😆
This should of been called Sergey's Misfortune! Lmao hilarious! 🤣🤣
I'm surprised Sergey didn't take them out when they started to try his patience.
That's probably the best one I've seen on this channel. The hitman was played by a Greek actor and I didn't recognize him at all until the end credits rolled.
YOOO THE ACTOR IS POPULAR IN GREECE I AM SO GLAD HES MAKING A COME BACK!
"you are going to forget about this day like your mom forgot about the pill" - that was gold..
Clever funny beautifully shot. Great characterisation. A gem.
That youtube aplogy scene :') LOL
When Sergey talks to Renat on the phone in the beginning, it sounds like Polish. His boss speaks Russian though.
He speaks Ukrainian
@@SAMualsNightGamer isn't this like the same thing tho? ( i mean ukrainian and russian)
@@sonntagbeiomi6960 No their languages are different, but both use cyrillic alphabet and both are slavic languages. I perfectly understand Russian, but can't understand Ukrainian. Some words are same though.
I really like the style that they're going for, Mix with a modern culture. it's kinda blended well in a weird way.
Finally! A short which doesn't need a complicated explanation.
This is the funniest film on Omeleto yet. Just hilarious. Why has it been watched so few times?
Obnoxious TH-camrs....My favourite phrase when I'm on youtube
All of these could be feature films and better than anything Hollywood puts out.
0:35 that man in the background itching his butt 😅 😂
Itchy butt = shittay butt
Brilliant.
Brilliant comment.
@@FloridaMan69. Brilliant
Brilliant
Who's here for a Kenyan blood Nick Mutuma😊😊
Right?! Yay!
Lol thought it was someone that looked like him at first.
LOL. Only those who watched the video after the end credits, realized that the TH-cam channel was banned because they filmed not only the assassin but also the agent who was the victim hidden inside the trunk! Hilarious stuff
When he's humping the car and the hitman starts narrating is just so funny, you can still hear the moaning in the background lol.
The apology at the end...laughed out loud, spit out my tea!
One of my favourite and most talented actors , Karamihos, in my favourite corner of you tube, omeleto!
Kudos for the amazing stories with the more outstanding performances!
He Sounds Like Barry White- I-
The post-production _saturation level_ was way up in the red zone during the grocery store scenes. Looked like the milk bottle top was about to communicate with the ones still in the fridge, or explode . . .
This feels like I’m watching such a good movie !!!
The director !!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I would totally watch this short film if it was a long movie
The musical score is amazing throughout this!
The ending was classic.... they got cancelled🤣🤣
and so did the hit man
Even a hitman can't work in piece without ppl on their cameras on their phones and TH-camrs lol. Class. A must watch. 📱📱😂
Car doesn't get jumped just takes off
When that one guy started screwing that car.. damn, i felt that.
The guy that play's Sergey is a Greek actor Yorgos Karamichos!! Greetings from Greece!!
Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter - NCR Trooper
I feel so sorry for Sergey
Love this short movie! So well put together, great acting, directing, production! ❤️
Thanks Mia ;)
The hitman totally looks like Orlando Bloom in a rude version oh him !!! Gorgeous !!
Omg this is way too good, they ply the part perfectly
i lost it at "man children" 😂
Awesome! Poor Sergy!
Sergey: *Sees what youtubers are doing*
Sergey: *Quietly Prays*
the ending apology is hilarious 😂
Yorgos Karamihos! I loved him in The Durrells ❤️
they should have called themselves D.B.A.G bro's
Agreed.
@@jiggzda1 read it as d-bag aka douchebag.
Very clever! I love the P.S. faux-pology! So good!
They did my boy Sergey dirty
Man, I felt bad for the hitman those TH-camrs were crazy obnoxious.
12:31 "That is the most ridiculous story I ever heard..." The car started for the dude that was dead but not really dead? The car battery wasn't dead either?
The battery had been jumped by that time, offscreen.
I'm impressed after watching this and 2 other short films from this channel. I like this format.
0:35 The background guy in Khaki is really digging for gold there LOL
Best omeleto ever! Great job on the producer!
im just wondering, what quentin tarantino would have done with obnoxious youtubers?
"but first SMASH that like button and subscribe" 🤣 So true!!
Now that has to be the height of incompetence for an assassin.
The most pathetic hitman ever.
Rip Sergey 😂
A rare bad movie on Omeletto. Bad dialogue. Bad story. The upside: Good music.
"What did I miss? What did I miss?"
UH, EVERYTHING.
It's so difficult to find professionals these days lol
never drive a hooptie to a mob hit in the desert
These youtubers were such a pain in ass that i started sympathizing with the hitman even though he himself a professional killer.
Can’t get enough of those DGAF Bro’s!
Hey guys I'm watching from riyadh 🤗❤️
Wow! Phone booths still exist in USA?!!
Duh the movie is set for a certain decade
No not really there are some left around not in use
@@robertmitchell8630 set for a certain decade... where youtube exists? So modern day
The dead battery must have come back to life when the dead guy came back to life.
