Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

mihai_chindris 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.

annjanbay 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.

bob the moo 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.

RainDogJr 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.
