Mumbo Jumbo 2005
The short film Mumbo Jumbo portrays a comedic and satirical take on the post-9/11 era, as three self-proclaimed suburban warriors – Gool, Rube, and Simmo (Andrew Garfield) – become determined to make a difference in the war on terror. However, their eagerness to carry out their first mission leads to unexpected consequences and exposes their incompetence in executing their plans.
The film highlights the absurdity and misguided attempts of ordinary citizens to take matters into their own hands and address global issues without fully comprehending their consequences. Despite its humorous undertones, the movie also serves as a commentary on the futility of vigilante justice and the dangers of extremism.
