Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Iseerphia All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
Hitchcoc Mickey Mouse is a tailor in a fairy tale town that has been ravaged by a giant. One day he kills seven flies, all at once. His bragging is mistaken for a claim to have killed seven giants with one blow. He is charged with the task of killing the aforementioned ogre. He is promised great wealth and the princess (Minnie) if he can do the job. He struggles to avoid the task but is soon out there in no man's land. Of course, the giant appears and it is his job to use his skills to accomplish things. The town is wonderfully colorful and the animation excellent. It never ceases to amaze me how brilliant the animation is in something produced in 1938. Very good job.
OllieSuave-007 One of my favorite Disney cartoons when I was growing up, as I would always rent this cartoon at the local video store when it was part of a video compilation of cartoon shorts. This short stars Mickey Mouse as the Brave Little Taylor who single handedly takes on a giant when he was invading his peaceful village. It is fun to see Mickey worm himself in and around the giant as he attempts to bring him down. The giant himself is pretty comical looking, but you could tell he is a force to be reckon with as the entire earth trembles as he stomps by. It is also nice to see Mickey in an underdog role without any magic tricks to save the day, instead, relying on his physical self.This cartoon short serves a good message that heroes can come in small packages, and quick wit and thinking can defeat even the strongest or biggest foes.Grade A
Julia Arsenault (ja_kitty_71) This is one of the best (and well-known) Mickey cartoons of all time. And it's also another cartoon where Mickey goes against a giant like in the 1933 short "Giantland" and "Mickey and The Beanstalk" for the 1947 film "Fun and Fancy Free". Also this cartoon is a favorite of mine. The short is based on the fairy-tale by The Grimm Brothers with Mickey as the tailor who killed seven flies "with one blow!" Of course, everyone mistook the flies for seven giants and they thought Mickey is a giant-killer. The short was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Short Subject; but the award went to the short "Ferdinand The Bull." I love the main title theme music. Also I love the scene where everyone spreads the story of Mickey killing seven giants. And the rumor then reaches the ears of the king and his daughter Princess Minnie.
Shawn Watson This time Mickey is starring all on his own, with no back-up. And for a change he's actually got a good story instead of the usual 'disaster' plots. In this cartoon, he plays a tailor who, through a series of misunderstandings, is sent on a mission by the king to take out a giant who is about to pound on their village. Princess Minnie is his reward so obviously he's going to oblige no matter how impossible that mission may be.Shock horror, there are actually some laughs and Mickey manages to hold our attention instead of making us drift away. The gimmicks and imagination are very good and the ending in which the villagers use the sleeping giant as a power source is very clever.Definitely one of the best Mickey shorts.
