There's a certain marionette-like awkwardness to the way characters move in Grand Theft Auto games. It never disrupts the illusion that you're wandering around in a living world, but it's a noticeable quirk that, in some ways, helps distinguish the series from other open world games.

Red Light Barbers is a barbershop in Lithuania, but the guys that run the place are apparently also both into video games and adept filmmakers. In the video above, they recreate an early mission from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and... well... it's really great.

Not only do they pipe in familiar audio cues and HUD elements from the game, they also nail that unique GTA vibe. This is actually their second crack at recreating a GTA mission; IMO, they learned a lot from that first one, and this second one is all the stronger for it.
