Parcialmente Nublado

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.

As we all know, babies of all types are delivered by storks, which collect them from their point of creation (in the clouds) and carry them in bundles to the ground. Of course you have you r cute creatures like puppies and kittens, but one stork works with a slightly less fun cloud where the creatures tend to be of a more "jagged" nature. Over time the working conditions that the stork has to endure appears to put a strain of the working relationship.

This short preceded Up in the cinemas and continues Pixar's tradition of having a supporting short film for their releases (a tradition that I'm all in favour of and still maintain that more "live action" releases should do it too). This slot has seen some very good animated short films and it must be said that Partly Cloudy is not really one of the better ones that they have done. Of course, as with nearly all things Pixar, one of their outputs being slightly below their normal standard still means that it is very good by normal standards, and so it is with Partly Cloudy.

In terms of content it is a relatively straightforward short with physical comedy providing all of the four or five laughs it has. This is not a complaint though because it is only a short film and as such it does do the job of being amusing by delivering these solid laughs in a short time. Of greater note that the specific laughs is the concept itself. The stork aspect is an old one but the whole idea is well brought to life by the design and the animation and it was this spirit of invention and creativity behind the laughs that I enjoyed.

Not Pixar's strongest moment in terms of their feature-supporting short films and a bit simple in terms of substance but the design and concept is imaginative and generally it is still funny and enjoyable with physical comedy sight gags.

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.

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.
