Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Mickey, Donald and Goofy have been given an eviction notice to leave their house due to unpaid rent by the Sheriff, who is none other than Pete. That set off a panic for the three to pack up their stuff, which apparently they didn't really know how to do it organization, as stuff fly and fall over everywhere! But what results were hilarious misadventures in the process, from Donald getting stuck in a plunger to Goofy battling it out with a piano that seemed to have a mind of its own.Mickey seemed largely missing in this cartoon short, though he is in it. But, it's still a funny, laugh-out-loud short that will bring entertaining to both adults and children. Lots of slapstick fun and classic character personalities! Grade A
Moving Day is one of my favorite cartoons of all time, and it has always been. I remember this Mickey cartoon being my favorite of the 7 on the Mickey DVD I had(which I still have now). As a kid, I would be a fan of SpongeBob and Tom And Jerry, but I still had a heart for classic Disney. This short's plot is that Mickey and Donald are very late on paying rent, so in order to prevent Sheriff Pete from selling their items, they have to move as quick as possible(with the help of Goofy). The visual gags are frequently imaginative and hilarious, such as Goofy's trouble with a supposed possessed piano and Mickey trying to fit all the items into one suitcase. The vocal performances in this are top-notch, the most credit going towards Billy Bletcher as Pete. Also, the animation is still revolutionary today, 1936 or not. Overall, Moving Day is a consistently funny, great-looking, and extremely well- voiced cartoon that is hilarious fun no matter how old you are.
About to be foreclosed upon by Sheriff Pete, Mickey and Donald need to move out fast, leading to the usual mayhem. Goofy, as an ice delivery man (ask your grandparents), comes to help them out; but, as usual, he's no help at all.This is one of the earliest cartoons to team Mickey, Donald and Goofy, and one of the best. The formula is established early on: The trio have a common task to complete, then split up for individual gag routines. The gags are very clever and well timed, and the action is fast-paced, with everything building up to an exciting climax. Of particular interest to animation buffs is Art Babbitt's handling of Goofy. He bends and twists his joints far past the breaking point, yet makes it seem absolutely natural, giving the Goof an astonishing flexibility without seeming rubbery. A must for cartoon fans.
Mickey and Donald are way behind in their rent money. Sheriff Pete (so tough he spits nails into the wall and hammers them in with his fist) wants his house back and decides to sell their furniture to make up for the debt. As soon as the mouse and duck start to pack up their meagre belongings all hell breaks loose, as it usually does in a Disney cartoon.Ice Deliveryman Goofy is stalked by a runaway piano, Donald gets a plunger/goldfish bowl stuck on his behind and Mickey has trouble fitting everything into one suitcase. Obviously the Sheriff ain't so keen on this last minute buffoonery but he gets what he deserves in the end.
