No Tomorrow - A Turbo Kid Tale: Adorable
Platypuschow22 April 2023
Plot

-Music video of Le Matos (Yeah, that's really all that's on IMDB)

Cast

Laurence Leboeuf returns as Apple

Verdict

Turbo Kid (2015) was a fantastically over the top enjoyable Canadian post apocalyptic comedy that was quirky and full of whimsy. This spinoff revolving around the origins of the delightful Apple is a fantastic companion piece.

Remember the corpse that Apple has as a friend prior to joining Turbo Kid? This is basically the story behind that and it's charming with our leading lady Laurence Leboeuf (Yes I still can't get my head around a girl named Laurence) winning us over once again as our goofy cyborg.

Standing at less than 10 minute it manages to tell a story with a beginning, middle and an end and it left me wanting more. Her death in the feature movie was the only thing that stopped Turbo Kid from being a really damn good cult film in my eyes, seeing her alive and well being her silly self here was much appreciated.

It's also worth noting that as much as this is a short film it's also a music video and makes for a fantastic example that music you'd never listen to otherwise that's entirely not your genre can still be enjoyable if used in a movie correctly.

Breakdown + Charming + Great companion piece
  • Music element is bearable but would have likely worked better without


Rants

Can you imagine dating Laurence Leboeuf? Finding yourself telling people her name and immediately needing to jump in to clarify that she's a girl. It's like going home and telling your family you're dating a lady named Fred, you'd probably lead with she's a girl lest you risk giving your bigot father a heart attack! Also just imagine dating Laurence Leboeuf anyway *Swoons*

Sweet Sounds, nice short story

Short music video featuring music from the OST of Turbo Kid and acts as a prequel to the movie.

It's fun, it's a nice song and I think it is fair to say that Turbo Kid is a cult classic in waiting.

If you haven't seen Turbo Kid, I would suggest watching the movie before watching this as you will appreciate it more and it kinda has some spoilers in it too.

As a fan of the movie, and only just finding out that they made this, as well as hearing that there is a 2nd movie in the works..

If you don't care for the movie and you check it out anyway, you may appreciate the music nevertheless :D

Catchy and solid looks, overall a decent success Warning: Spoilers
The 2016 "No Tomorrow: A Turbo Kid Tale" is as the title already tells us an 8.5-minute music video that is linked closely to the 2015 film "Turbo Kid". Laurence Leboeuf plays the central character and also the people who wrote and directed this brief little film were the same ones as in the feature film I believe. This one is probably especially worth checking out for all fans of the Apple character. I think the song is really catchy and the visual side is decent too. One exception though. The eyes of the giant brute make it pretty easy to see that he is wearing a mask. But that's my only criticism I guess. I have not seen "Turbo Kid" (yet?), but this one here makes me slightly curious about it as it looks like a pretty fantastic apocalyptic world, even if Sci-Fi is usually not my preferred genre at all. So yeah, nothing truly outstanding we get in any area here and you can make an argument for both sides if this short film is really needed, but I personally give it a thumbs-up and recommend checking it out. It also does not require you to have seen "Turbo Kid" as I didn't either like I already wrote and still managed to enjoy "No Tomorrow".
