Meh.
For something fight themed I’d think this would be more
exciting, but it isn’t. I don’t like the
gag of Mickey getting inducted into the army I think ‘Donald Gets Drafted’ did
it better. The designs of the other mice
aren’t interesting and I don’t like the way the guns and cannons deflate after
being fired. Yes, it’s supposed to be light-hearted
no gore and what not, but I just don’t care for the look. Also I still don’t like seeing Mickey with
teeth.
It isn’t all bad though some of the gags like Mickey firing piano
keys out of the machine gun and catching one Pete cat’s tail in a mouse trap
are funny. The music and action are
nicely timed especially when Mickey is hitting all the Pete troops over the
head with a hammer. For me though I
think the Donald wartime shorts did the army stuff better, and the silly Symphonies
did a lot of the musical based stuff better.
Again it’s not bad it just doesn’t stand out when compared to the rest
of the canon.
