Develiker terrible... so disappointed.
Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?
Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
TheLittleSongbird Fleischer were responsible for some brilliant cartoons, some of them still among my favourites. Their visual style often stunning and some of the most imaginative and ahead of its time in animation.The character of Betty Boop, one of their most famous and prolific characters, may not be for all tastes and sadly not as popular now, but her sex appeal was quite daring for the time and to me there is an adorable sensual charm about her. The charm, sensuality and adorability factors are here and she's fun to watch. The rest of the gang are similarly enormously entertaining.'Betty Boop's Birthday Party' is not quite up there with Betty's best, but is wonderfully bizarre and never less than enormously entertaining, with some very imaginative, insane and very funny sight gags. The cartoon's thin on plot, but the atmosphere, humour and visual style more than compensate and keep things afloat.Furthermore, the black and white animation is extremely good, smooth, meticulously detailed and well drawn with the black and white not looking too primitive. A lot of it is actually very imaginative as well, some of the most inventive and eye-popping of the early Betty Boop cartoons to me. Even better is the music, which is rousing, catchy and unquestionably accessible to anybody who loves or is familiar with the composition style.All in all, one birthday party Betty Boop/Fleischer-style that one doesn't want to miss. 9/10 Bethany Cox
MartinHafer The film begins with Betty doing housework and lamenting that it's her birthday and no one has remembered. However, soon the gang arrives--surprising her with a birthday party. Unfortunately, some of the party guests get WAY out of hand and a huge fight breaks out. Suddenly, food, dishes and, well, everything begins flying everywhere. So, Betty gets George Washington to help her in her time of need. Seriously. Well, watch it and see what I mean.Although Betty does sing a bit at the beginning, the main emphasis on this one is goofy fun. There are sight gags galore and a certain weird sensibility that's hard to resist. Fun and worth your time.
Robert Reynolds This is a cute, if second-tier, short that centers around a surprise party thrown for Betty by her friends. The usual sight gags, many rather bizarre and unusual, to say the least, run throughout the cartoon. Entertaining, if not really among the best of the period. Well worth watching. In print and available. Recommended.
