Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Yazmin Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Steve Pulaski Feast was shown in theaters before Disney's Big Hero 6, and serves as a nice vehicle for the fun-loving mayhem that takes place in that particular film. This short is a heartwarmer from start to finish, concerning an owner and his dog who bound over the foods they eat and the company they share while eating. This kind of connection to anyone who owns a pet is a familiar one, and it's a beautiful representation of a man/dog relationship. As expected, Disney hits the appropriate notes here, playing to ones emotions, childlike sense of whimsy, and cuteness factor in having a fun-loving dog chow down on whatever is placed in front of him. Despite all these clear and evident tactics, the short amazingly works and serves as the Best Animated Short winner for good, albeit simplistic, reasons.Directed by: Patrick Osborne and Kristina Reed.

peefyn This is a great example of a story not told with words. There are words there, you can here characters speak in the background, but it is not important to the story. The words are for the feeling, a part of the environment that the story takes place in.It is about a period of a dog's life, and is mostly shown through meals, hence the title. It's an interesting concept, and leads to a fun, light hearted short that tells a cute story about life.I also liked how this short showed the passing of time. Piecing together what I assume to be high and low points in this period of the dogs life, you get a general sense of how things are going for both the dog and the owner. (But I do hope that in between some of these moments, the dog was fed properly!) The "cel-shaded" look made it seem a bit dated at first, but because of the pretty palette and all of the stuff that is happening, one quickly gets used to it, and follow it like "any other" beautiful animation.

Matthew Luke Brady A man's best friend to the very end.The story is about a man's love life is seen through the eyes of his best friend and dog, Winston, and revealed bite by bite through the meals they share.Feast is a 6 minute short film that by now judging on the date of this review, this short film has been nominated for Best Short Film at the Oscars and who knows... it might win. Okay so this a short film and that means this review might not be has long as my other reviews, so basically it's a short little review on this cheerful short film, well it might be a long review.I got to say that the first ever scene in this short film with the little dog barking and being a happy puppy was the cutest and the most adorable thing I've seen since the beginning of the 2008 film Bolt. Have you ever got that feeling inside of you that it's so cute that you can't take to much cuteness, yeah that's this.What Feast got so beautifully well is showing a cute little dog who loves junk food and in the background there's another story happening with two lovers and they relationship, but has the short goes along it quickly turns surprisingly depressing. Feast is only 6 minutes long and it brilliantly give you all the cuteness, cheerfulness, depression and back to happy again and Feast gives you all that in a matter of 6 minutes, it's a bit like Up with the opening scene where you already know everything about them and it's only last for a couple of minutes, I mean that right there is masterpiece of directing and writing.The animation is so colorful and so beautifully bright that the animation is the icing on the cake for this touching and a well made short film.

Neil Welch It is Disney's habit to release a new short to accompany each animated feature, and Feast accompanies Big Hero 6. It is told from the point of view of a small dog, initially a stray, who gets himself adopted on the grounds of food. For a while we are led to believe that the story is about the dog discovering the delights of many different types of food until we understand that the film is actually telling the tale of what is happening in the home.To be frank, the final third of this short is somewhat glib and, by having a dog which is so insightful and initiative-driven yet still a plain old pet dog, Disney has gone rather further along the have-your-cake-and-eat-it path than usual.Having said that, the film is warm and full of heart, the design is simple but effective, the lighting is exquisite, and the 3D – already good - is rendered more effective by an atmosphere dense with motes and differential focus. This is a treat to watch in 3D.
