Don't get me wrong, i loved the short and the chemistry between Alberto and Massimo is cute, but the short film just didn't have anything interesting in it due to the trailer and peoples spoilers on instegram haha.
Overall, it was cute, funny and wholesum, if it wasn't for the people who overreacted with their spoilers, i would have enjoyed it more.
P. S : i know this is off topic, but people, please !! Stop drawing weird fandom of this movie.

It was cute, but I'd say it's way too short to genuinely recommend to someone unfortunately. Still, if you've wanted some more Luca, well, here you go.
This short is a spin-off from "Luca" and follows one of the main characters, Alberto, in his life following the end of the previous film.
It begins with Alberto writing to his friend, Luca, who by now has gone off to school. As he writes, you see that Alberto's life with Massimo is very problematic, as Alberto knows little about human customs and he keeps making a mess of things. To make matters worse, Massimo continues to be a very quiet and reserved man and Alberto assumes the guy is getting fed up with him....particularly when he accidentally burns Massimo's boat.
I didn't love this short until the end...which was very sweet. It gave some added depth to the characters and overall, it's a very nice Pixar short.

'Ciao Alberto (2021)' is a short film by Pixar which follows the exploits of Alberto after the events of 'Luca (2021)'. It's over almost before it begins, essentially building towards a climactic scene that's designed to give your tear ducts a workout. The rest of the thing is basically just a series of gags as Alberto struggles to impress his stoic new boss. It's decent enough, but doesn't feel all that substantial. It also isn't particularly amusing or emotionally affecting. It's enjoyable enough for what it is, but it almost feels inconsequential overall. It really could've done with being just a bit longer. Still, it's fine. 5/10.
A vibrant, enchanting short film is the ideal successor to the much-loved Pixar feature film Luca. This short film delves further into the lives of the beloved characters, Alberto and Massimo, beautifully continuing their narrative journey. The film shines in the seamless weaving of heartfelt storytelling and impressive animation, leaving viewers with awe and delight.
The creators have done a splendid job of amplifying the characters' dynamics, intensifying the emotion between the father and son relationship, and delivering significant character development within a limited timeframe. The setting and the imagery are reminiscent of Luca, with the shimmering seas and colourful Italian Riviera as a scenic backdrop to the moving storyline.
This film is a true gem for fans of Luca, offering a slice of the characters' lives that wasn't covered in the original film. It's an inspiring and poignant tale, wonderfully packaged into a short film, making it the perfect pick for a family movie night. Whether you're a fan of the original film or simply seeking a delightful, touching animated short film to enjoy, This film will leave you with a warm glow and a renewed sense of inspiration.
