Captivating movie !
TrueHello
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

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.

Donald Duck stars as a police officer assigned to arrest Tiny Tom, who is none other than Pegleg Pete.It was funny how the police dispatcher wakes up a sleeping Donald in his squad car and how Donald disguises himself as a baby to entice Tiny Tom and, eventually, lure him into arrest.Great animation, great comedy, great slapstick action and great story. Donald gets the last laugh here, which is refreshing since he always get the bad luck. Clarence Nash once again does a nice job giving Donald Duck his classic persona and voice.Grade A

With the delightful pairing of Donald Duck and Pete, Officer Duck is an often hilarious and simply divine Silly Symphony gem. The animation is colourful and smooth, the music is very pleasant, and there are a ton of laughs, especially with Donald and his witty asides. There are many quotable lines too, and Donald himself, with the impeccable voicing of the one and only Clarence "Ducky" Nash, gives a very arresting performance. I was in tears of laughter when he disguises himself as a baby to fool the villain of the piece, Tiny Tom. Pete himself is marvellous as Tiny Tom, quite a dastardly villain, but a funny and charming one at the same time. If you come across this Silly Symphony, I strongly recommend you watch it. Tears and laughter are guaranteed. 10/10 Bethany Cox

This short is one of my favorite Donald vs. Pete cartoon, besides "Timber" and "Trombone Trouble". In this short, Donald is a police officer ordered to pick up "Tiny Tom" (Pete), and bring him into custody. But Tiny Tom isn't so "tiny" as Donald thought and the arrest didn't good so well. So Officer Duck use strategy and disguise himself as a baby and soon big, tough Tiny Tom becomes a nice guy. Isn't is funny? A cop and a crook play "baby and papa?" I love the part when Donald hits Tom on the head with a pipe from the wall, and from the blow the outline of Tom's face (from the side-view) is indented on the pipe.I remember watching this short on TV - the edited version. Of course on TV, they didn't show how Tiny Tom lit a cigar with a plumber's torch and later shoots the door with a machine-gun. Overall, this short to me, is one of the best Donald Duck cartoons of 1939.

Well, not really. Donald plays the incompetent Officer 13 who cannot apprehend Tiny Tom, a wanted local criminal. In an effort to sneak himself into Tiny's dwelling Donald disguises himself as a baby, abandoned child of Tiny's pal trigger. Being the generous type (?) Tiny takes him in and, amidst lots of suspicion and almost exposures, Donald tries in vain to slap the shackles/cuffs/ball and chain on him. Trouble is, Tiny wants to play with him too much.In the end Donald does manage to do the impossible and succeed at something by taking Tiny into custody (by default) but it's a funny cartoon with an unusually bleak-looking color pallet.
