But, when Presto forgets to feed his rabbit one too many times, well, there's really no telling what to expect! Follow the escalating high jinx of the amazing Presto, his rabbit Alec, and what happens onstage when a star magician's ego provokes some clever revenge from his neglected costar. (HBO Europe)

Pretty magical... it was less than 5 minutes long, but I had a better feeling than I often have after watching a two-hour blockbuster.

Another great short from Pixar. I don’t know how they always manage to get me. The rabbit is a hard-ass and a cute furry toy in one, while Presto the magician is a perfect "French" snob. This duo will have you laughing your head off.

This short film is kind of like Bugs Bunny, especially the episode called "Case of the Missing Hare" However, otherwise, it is an amusing short film with very good animation. It is simply a movie that reminded me of how I used to like animated narratives where the main characters make fun of each other. Well, he should have just given him the carrot! Very good. 8.5/10.

I like animated grotesques and this is one of them. It is a short film that benefits from a great idea. And that's all it takes. It is true that the duration of the film for that one idea is quite long, but the individual escapades that you witness here clearly show that it was made by someone who has imagination and who managed to deal with the fact that they are making a film from Pixar. Excellent, with a great idea, just a little exaggerated and maybe even a bit ordinary in some places. The absence of dialogue is definitely a plus. It refers to the beauty of classic silent grotesques.
