The Far Cry Experience

It's no secret that a comedy starring Christopher Mintz-Plasse at his most popular, was guaranteed to get fans attention in 2012. Though without question, the true highlight of the show is Michael Mando's portrayal of Vaas. To see the future Better Call Saul actor, land an opportunity to set groundwork for performances he'd later become known for, is a real treat. Especially considering he was mainly a Canadian TV actor at that time.

Throughout a less than 30 minute total runtime, this series succeeds in being the found footage comedy it's aiming for. Unlike the varying quality of some productions in the same genre, FCE never suffers from feeling low budget. However, it feels like high level promotional material, that with some wishful thinking may have even served better as a film.

With a beautiful setting, decent supporting roles, and basic plot direction all separated into digestible 5 minute blocks, The Far Cry Experience is a must for any Far Cry fan. This flash in the pan for Michael Mando's career, only elevating the legacy of the game it's based on, and the villain he plays within it.
