not great early Disney cartoon
9 July 2006
Okay, this cartoon is a bit on the dull side and bore few signs of future greatness--I admit it. However, compared with other cartoons of the era, it's pretty good--especially in the animation quality. Apart from having backgrounds that keep repeating themselves again and again (a cheap technique that was later often used by Hanna-Barbera), it was top-notch work. The problem to is that the script was pretty weak and wasn't all that funny of interesting. Sadly, interesting scripts generally didn't materialize in cartoons until much later. Also, this toon bore no real resemblance to the classic story of the four animals aching to become musicians...and that's a shame because it would have beat this film. One of the worst early Disney films...and perhaps 3 is being a bit generous.
