Once again, Pixar has accompanied one of its wonderful features (in this case, UP), with a short subject. And the short subject, PARTLY CLOUDY, plays like a variation on Bob Clampett's classic cartoon, BABY BOTTLENECK, although without Porky or Daffy.

Like all of Pixar's shorts, this is a virtual silent picture, with just enough sound effects to keep it going. It concerns where babies come from before the storks deliver them: from clouds, it turns out, who shape them from their own material. For this one we get to follow the cloud and stork who produce not fluffy kittens, but other, more dangerous critters, like crocodiles and porcupines.

I do have some slight issues with how clouds are rendered -- a bit more solid and cotton-batting-like than I would think, but this is a lovely little pleasure for the viewer.

I would watch a series about these characters. This was adorable and so sweet!

This animated short film is about a very unlucky stork, who has to deliver scary babies of various vicious animals made by a miserable dark cloud.

"Partly Cloudy" is fun to watch. Due to the length of the short animation, the pacing is quick. There is no need for a long build up, it only delivers funny moments every 10 seconds. There are no words in the animation, but it successfully delivers humour, warmth and love. I am impressed by the filmmakers' limitless imagination, especially the interaction between the unlucky stork and the various vicious animals. I enjoyed watching "Partly Cloudy".

It's short but straight to the point.

Loved how they set the graphics.

I really enjoyed it, it's a great simple idea.

It was entertaining and educational in a way.

If you have an idea about how Pixel's movies are then you'd know what I'm talking about.

Well if you fancy something light and funny to watch then this it.

It all depends on what you are looking for, it's really short but interesting as well.

Worth watching though.

The adventures of a cloud who changes moods - good story. More fascinating is the fact the, we humans, behave like the cloud, adjusting our feelings and emotions according to what happens to us in a particular day. It's only 5 minutes and it's worth the time. You won't lose anything watching it.

As someone who is consistently impressed with Pixar, I really enjoyed Partly Cloudy. It is not one of Pixar's best, not like Geri's Game, Presto, One Man Band and Knick Knack, but there is much to like and it compliments Up(the feature film that succeeds it). As with all Pixar's work, it is beautifully animated, the clouds may occasionally have a slightly cotton wool look to them, but the characters are well modelled and the colours and backgrounds are gorgeous. The music is understated with a nostalgic feel to it, and while not laugh out loud funny like Presto for instance Partly Cloudy is still entertaining. It also has a very cute and charming story and the characters especially the messenger of the black cloud are endearing. Overall, while not Pixar's best it is definitely worth watching for its cuteness and for how beautiful it looks. 9/10 Bethany Cox

At first this short looked like it was going to be decent, but I completely changed my opinion once they show how funny it can get with using a basic "baby delivering storks" element. Throughout the short it shows clouds that create infant humans and animals of all kinds and have the storks deliver them to their new families. One of the storks was trying to find an infant human or animal to deliver, but the cloud he comes to only makes slightly dangerous infant animals. Which makes the stork's job a little harder than the other ones are getting.

I admit it was a good short, with some surprising good laughs. I don't have the heart to rank it higher than my other favorite Pixar shorts, but doesn't mean I hate it. I would definitely watch it again.

Last year I got my very first Blu-ray and it was the Pixar short films collection volume 1, then I saw some of them for the very first time including the short Lifted, the short that was theatrically released with Pixar's 2007 feature Ratatouille, I haven't write a comment of that Brad Bird film but I loved it when I saw it on the big screen back in 2007 however and as I wrote I saw the short Lifted until last year's August. And I do saw WALL*E last year on the big screen but as for today I haven't seen the Academy Award nominee short film Presto so in other words for some reason in my city (at least in the screenings I attended) the traditional short film wasn't showed before Ratatouille and WALL*E (I didn't saw Cars on the big screen) so frankly was very nice that before Up (which I saw, in 3-D, last Friday night) we got to see the short, we got to see Partly Cloudy.

I have still to see Your Friend the Rat, Presto and BURN-E but so far my favourite short from the 00s is For the Birds (with the exception of Mike's New Car, Boundin' and Lifted I just loved the shorts from the 00s included in the volume 1 of the Pixar short films collection) and while Partly Cloudy is not as hilarious as For the Birds I really liked it and definitely was great to watch it on the big screen. It is about the storks bringing the babies, about the life- creator clouds, about one particular cloud that creates the babies that no stork would like to bring to the parents, about one particular stork that works with that particular cloud, about one unlucky stork. Is quite funny and after all some stork has to do that job! And believe me you will love the unlucky stork! Then Partly Cloudy is simply more good stuff to add to the mostly great Pixar catalog of short films.

The clouds create cute babies and the storks deliver them. Gus is a gray cloud who keeps producing babies that aren't the easiest to deliver. Peck is the stork tasked to deliver them. First, it's a crocodile which almost bites his head off. Next, it's a ram which packs quite a punch. He gets pricked by the porcupine and the shark is simply too much. Peck flies away but he returns with helmet and pads to take on the dangerous babies. Although the protection may not save him from the electric eel. The premise may work for little kids but it's not quite as good for anybody older. It's not as charming as it wants to be although it is a cute idea.

a stork. a cloud. and a lot of dangerous babies. result - a touching film. first - for idea - the classic stork as messenger of special babies maker. second - for the impossible mission of eccentric team between good intentions of cloud and the unhappy but full of good intentions stork. not the least, the fireworks of imagination reflected by the chain of not ordinary animals. so, a soft, lovely film.

Party Cloudy is another in the always enjoyable short subjects that come on before the main feature of Pixar's cannon. It's a welcome treat since it's a throwback to the days in movies when it was a given to get at least one cartoon, if not more plus a newsreel, before the movie started. In this case Partly Cloudy looks in its first few moments like it will be a riff on that Looney Tunes cartoon where the drunken stork drops the wrong baby to the expecting Sylvester and mother. Instead we're treated to a series of gags involving, yes, clouds that are responsible for creating all life, all bundled up in little blankets and sent on the merry way, only to find some hazard with an untalented cloud that keeps creating dangerous things (i.e. porcupine, shark) for the bewildered stork.

This was all fine and cute and had a couple of chuckles (some big laughs from the kids, more or less, it was hard to pay too much attention since, thankfully, the audience was not too hyped up or annoying). But, there is something of note that should be taken: you may need to explain, after Partly Cloudy and Up, where babies come from to your kids if in case they don't really know yet or aren't too clear (or, you know, you're one of *those* parents that keep it all in the dark for like religious reasons or just too uncomfortable). What I mean to say is that the first short perpetuates the ol' stork-bringing-the-baby story. This may be eons old and no kid buys it and maybe info on the internet gets the kids knowing at younger ages - but then in Up, in the montage showing the life of Carl and Ellie Frederickson, we find out, clearly, about Carl and Ellies' inability to have children.

So, just so you parents know, be prepared to a) let your kids know, definitively, that the stork stuff is BS, period, no questions asked (unless if your kid is just dumb enough to believe it), and b) be prepared for MORE questions from the similar subject, if it comes up at all, from Up... Perhaps though I've gone off on a tangent here; suffice to say Partly Cloudy is neither the best (it's not as good as the magician short that came with WALL-E last year) nor the worst (it's not forgettable like that bah sheep short with the Incredibles). It's fluffy and light, and hopefully it wont incur too many questions from your kids, such as "Why can't the stork help out Carl and Ellie?" Actually, at that point, they're on their own.

This delivers everything we expect from a Pixar short. It's clever, funny, charming, sad but not overwhelmingly so, has something to say, the music and sound work are great and it is incredibly well animated. This one focuses on making it look just right when the clouds make babies. We all know the thing about small children being taught that storks bring newborns(and in case an actual kid is reading this review, I want to assure you, that is absolutely true). This one takes it to its logical extreme. It asks, what about the one that has to bring the dangerous ones?

I really loved how this so clearly communicates that even uncommon situations deserve to be addressed, and that all problems no matter what have solutions. The porcupine being thrown back and forth was hilarious, very well done slapstick. Recommended. 8/10.

This is the only piece of media I have ever seen that shows where the storks get infants from and for that I alone I think it is worthwhile to see. With that said the story of coworkers having to navigate a mutual challenge is very funny and very sweet. I love that in such a cute concept creepy crawlers got their due as well.

It's a cute Pixar short. Well animated and all. Yeah.

Pixar studio made lots of quality films before it was purchased by Disney.

A charming Pixar short that accompanies its feature length films in the cinemas.

Kids would love to know where all the cute babies, puppies, kittens and rabbits come from. It is from those fluffy clouds where they are all wrapped up delivered ready by flying Storks. All happily delivering joy to the world.

However the planet is not all cuddly babies and puppies. What about baby alligators, hedgehogs, sharks? The kind of thing that do not have the necessary cute attributes.

This is a tale of the dark cloud which has all the spiky jobs where as its neighbours has the more cuddly deliveries.

It is also the story of his attached Stork who has to risk his few remaining feathers delivering spiky hedgehogs, snappy alligators to proud parents while gazing wilfully at the other storks with easier tasks.

A short cartoon that is fun and interesting.

The animation was really cute so I pick it up on Disney Plus, but it wasn't so exciting as I expected.

Storks are known for giving every animal their babies. In this story, they transport babies from clouds in the sky. A cloud is good at creating dangerous babies, such as crocodiles, sharks, or hedgehogs. So, the stork which comes to those clouds has many troubles carrying babies.

We sometimes compare clouds to something else, however, in this movie, clouds in the sky have expressive faces and feelings. When they get angry, lightning strikes from it. Also, when it feels sad, rain comes out instead of tears. I think this idea is very interesting because clouds are depicted like humans.

The back ground pictures are so beautiful and they make this movie more fantastic.

When you look up on the sky, you may find a gentle cloud like in this movie.
