Donald and Pluto Audience Reviews

CommentsXp Best movie ever!
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Jimmy L. While Donald tries to fix the plumbing, Pluto swallows a powerful magnet and finds himself being chased around the house by various metallic items, which are magnetically attracted to his tail end.Although notable as Donald Duck's first solo outing since gaining popularity as a supporting player in Mickey Mouse cartoons, this is really a Pluto cartoon. The entire short is built around exploring the comic possibilities of a dog with a magnetic behind, and the animators come up with some wonderful gags. The irascible Donald eventually finds himself on the wrong end of the destructive hijinks, and more hilarity ensues as he chases Pluto while wielding a metal pipe wrench. A lot of fun.
OllieSuave-007 This is the first cartoon featuring Donald Duck and Pluto together. While Donald does plumbing work in a housing complex, he drops a large magnet and Pluto accidentally swallows it. As a result, it causes all sorts of metal objects to move around Pluto. What results are hilarious scenes after the other as it is funny to see metal objects come to life and seem to surround poor Pluto.The stubborn alarm clock that corners Pluto is a hilarious scene, as well as the most intense one of all - all the sharp kitchen utensils including forks, knives and a cleaver chasing the dog around and around the house. With Donald caught in the mayhem as well, it's nothing short of physical comedy and Donald doing what he does best - trying to get himself out of frustrated situations! It's a great cartoon - funny for the adults and kids! Grade A
TheLittleSongbird I have always loved Disney shorts, and I have always loved Donald for his hilarious temperament and Pluto for his cuteness and energy. Donald and Pluto is great, the two's chemistry is rather limited here together, but both of them are great fun. Donald is not quite at his best, where he finds himself easily frustrated, but the parts where he walks on the ceiling and ends up in the washing machines are very funny. Pluto though is the one who steals the show, just by doing what he is famous for. He is cute, he is energetic but he is also fun and all within his actions. The animators do a great job in not just his animation but putting personality in it as well. The animation is wonderful, the backgrounds are sumptuously coloured and the house and furnishing make you wish you lived in it. The music is both beautiful and characterful, and the gags mostly focusing on Pluto and the magnet are inventive and make their mark. The story may feel a little routine in places like the Pluto causing chaos ending(still funny though), but the crisp energy and gags make it interesting as well. Clarence Nash's voice work as Donald is impeccable as always. Overall, a great short, beautifully animated and a lot of fun. Donald has his moments and is a delight but it is Pluto who steals it. 9/10 Bethany Cox
Shawn Watson As we all know, whatever Donald Duck sets out doing at the start of any cartoon, by the end everything in the vicinity, be it house, car, shop, work, will be destroyed and Donald will be left fuming.Here, Donald is working on plumbing in his basement, using a magnet to pick up objects from the floor. Pluto becomes curious to the magnet's strange powers and mucks around with it. Soon enough he's swallowed it and scrambles around the house trying to get it out, eventually tying up Donald in the shenanigans. Cue running from flying knives, walking on the ceiling (including one moment when Donald bizarrely defies gravity) and general mayhem in which Donald's house is left in ruins. It's what we expect and love about Donald.
