Hola, Alberto

It was cute, but I'd say it's way too short to genuinely recommend to someone unfortunately. Still, if you've wanted some more Luca, well, here you go.

A vibrant, enchanting short film is the ideal successor to the much-loved Pixar feature film Luca. This short film delves further into the lives of the beloved characters, Alberto and Massimo, beautifully continuing their narrative journey. The film shines in the seamless weaving of heartfelt storytelling and impressive animation, leaving viewers with awe and delight.

The creators have done a splendid job of amplifying the characters' dynamics, intensifying the emotion between the father and son relationship, and delivering significant character development within a limited timeframe. The setting and the imagery are reminiscent of Luca, with the shimmering seas and colourful Italian Riviera as a scenic backdrop to the moving storyline.

This film is a true gem for fans of Luca, offering a slice of the characters' lives that wasn't covered in the original film. It's an inspiring and poignant tale, wonderfully packaged into a short film, making it the perfect pick for a family movie night. Whether you're a fan of the original film or simply seeking a delightful, touching animated short film to enjoy, This film will leave you with a warm glow and a renewed sense of inspiration.

This short cemented the idea that Alberto should have been the main character of "Luca". He is much more interesting. And if I am being honest. I would have loved to see a whole film about him and Massimo. Like them finding each other and growing like a father and son.

I did find the start a little grating but I just don't like that cliche.

The ending was really touching tho. For a 5 minute short, it was a sweet story.

To be honest, i never reviewed any movie before, but i will try my best.

At first, Luca came out and gained over gained attention pretty much by everyone positively, even i liked it so much.

But we are gone to a level where people actually sexualizing the movie for being the two boys so called "into each other". I hated the fact that people gave this movie a bigger space than its shape.

But overall, i enjoyed the first movie, and this one did win me over it. But people, whoever is reading this, don't hate for saying this, but please stop giving something that it doesn't really go along with it.

Thank you all for reading.

This short is a spin-off from "Luca" and follows one of the main characters, Alberto, in his life following the end of the previous film.

It begins with Alberto writing to his friend, Luca, who by now has gone off to school. As he writes, you see that Alberto's life with Massimo is very problematic, as Alberto knows little about human customs and he keeps making a mess of things. To make matters worse, Massimo continues to be a very quiet and reserved man and Alberto assumes the guy is getting fed up with him....particularly when he accidentally burns Massimo's boat.

I didn't love this short until the end...which was very sweet. It gave some added depth to the characters and overall, it's a very nice Pixar short.
