Amy Nicholson

New York Times

Squeeze the ink from these animated shorts nominees and one could paint a banner with their shared message: Be here now. This stronger-than-average selection boasts four excellent entries and one celebrity-studded sugar glop that shouldn’t win (but might)

Rated: B+

Los Angeles Times

In animation, where imagination can rule, a creature with a warning may get to literally voice its concern.

Capital Times (Madison, WI)

Do NOT bring your kids. Or if you do, be prepared to take a 25-minute break in the lobby or risk a very awkward conversation in the car on the drive home.

Rated: 3.5/4

Butler's Cinema Scene

This year’s batch of Oscar-nominated shorts may make you chuckle now and then, but for the most part they’ll leave you gasping in admiration at their intellectual/emotional breadth.

Rated: A-

Arts Fuse

From allegory to metaphysical exploration to simply meta, or alternatively, displaying trenchant realism, the nominees for this year’s ceremony on March 12 are strong

SLIM

A well acted period piece. I was not aware of Emily Bronte's social discomfort or the fact that she wrote only one novel.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
