Presto (2008)
*** (out of 4)
Animated short from Pixar, which was originally shown in front of Wall-E. A magician who specializes in pulling a rabbit from his hat forgets to feed that same rabbit. That night at the show the rabbit protests and refuses to be pulled, which leads to trouble. This film runs a short five-minutes and while it's not as attractive as the main feature it's still a nice little gem. There's some very funny stuff here as the magician has to do battle with his partner including a very good sequence where the rabbit keeps pulling tricks of his own. The animation is quite nice and the story work fine as well.
