Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

boblipton Rupert the Pig is the runt of the little. Everyone on the farm bullies him and refuses to let him eat anything. They never let poor Rupert join in any reindeer.... well, he runs away from farm and has an adventure in this prototypical triumph-of-the-little-guy Terrytoon.Although it may be unfair to point out that Paul Terry's staff did this plot about five hundred times after this, I do so. I have seen a bunch of them. I am bored with the plot, bored with the cuteness, bored with yet another example of the little guy triumphing because Paul Terry's audience was small children and their triumph is foreordained.One good point is that some one on Terry's staff seems to have been reading Joseph Campbell's THE HERO WITH A THOUSAND FACES. Rupert leaves home, goes on a journey into the dark underworld and returns changed. It's not much to hang a cartoon on, but it's something.
