This is the best short Pixar film I ever seen! What a delightful toon that brings the clever slapstick gags between the magician and a cute rabbit because I couldn't stop laughing. It really gets you in the mood to laugh at the very Charlie Chaplin humour. The animation was vibrant and colorful, and the way it had a nice glow to it.

Possibly my favorite PIXAR short, and that really is saying something. Brilliant.

This was a great short from the great people at Pixar: simple and packed with Looney Tunes-like awesomeness.

Hilarious! Probably my favorite of all the animated shorts before Pixar Films..... Well, I guess it ties with "Lifted"...the one that was with Ratatouille.

Possibly the single most hilarious piece of work Pixar has ever given us. The comedy gold of one cute and charming character causing continuous pain towards another pompous or unlikable character is something animation discovered almost a century ago. It's rarely been as rapid fire hysterical as here.

To go with Pixar's most perfect movie, we're treated to a 5 minute short before the picture starts. Presto is beautifully animated, looking just as good as a full length animated picture would, and also, like the movie it was shown with, WALL·E, it has no dialogue, yet still comes off brilliantly. Chaos ensues, as do many belly laughs, which have never been produced in me to this magnitude from a cartoon. This was one of Pixar's best shorts. It was the perfect length with the perfect amount of jokes, mostly slapstick. The animation was vibrant and colorful, and the way it had a nice glow to it, similar to the way Ratatouille looks.

I laughed 'til I cried! One of the funniest short films I've ever seen.

This was the short preceding WALL-E, right? It was funny, short and sweet.
Henrik S

Amazing Pixar short, quality and love for characters & details as usuual.
Anthony V

Fun opener for Wall E.
