Synopsis

A prize-fighting banty rooster, so slap-happy that he goes into a punching spree whenever he hears a bell, falls out of a truck and onto the farm where Foghorn Leghorn is in the midst of his usual sparring match with the barnyard dog. Foghorn and the dog use the fighter-rooster's manic punching against each other by ringing a bell once the rooster is within striking distance of their intended victim.

SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Ricardo Daly The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
Edgar Allan Pooh " . . . the horse you rode in on," is a famous saying of FOGHORN LEGHORN, the punching bag of SOCK A DOODLE DO. Warner Bros.' Prognosticators Non Pareil, their Animated Shorts Seers division (aka, The Looney Tuners) outdo themselves with the clairvoyance of their psychic predictions aimed, per their usual, at We Americans of (The Then) Far Future. SOCK A DOODLE DO incorporates so many of the trademark Warner Bros. warnings to us 21st Century Folks that it would take a mighty thick tome to catalog all of them. Lacking the same, let's focus on Warner's main warning message of SOCK A DOODLE DO, which pops us late in this brief cartoon when Barnyard Dog lures Foghorn Leghorn into a shack labeled as a "Hula Hula Hut" for his ultimate punishment. The outside of this deplorable hillbilly-type edifice is plastered with photos of young HUMAN females, of the same sort that got Alabama's Judge Roy Moore banned from his local shopping mall when he was a powerful 32-year-old prosecutor incapable of keeping himself from persecuting the teen "jailbait" gals frequenting that mall. (The security guard who enforced Alabama's version of a "no fly list" against Moore has been deposed several times on TV this past week.) First Red Commie KGB Chief Vlad "The Mad Russian" Putin's White House Sock Puppet Don Juan Rump infested the White House with a nest of High Treason Viper-like Traitors while winning Putin's rigged election for U.S. President in Alabama, DESPITE confessions from the Horse's Own A$$ during the infamous ACCESS H0LLYWOOD tape that he's a serial finger rapist. NOW Alabama is Hell-Bent upon electing ANOTHER of Satan and Putin's proved Arch Demons in Roy "The Banging Judge" Moore as the next U.S. Senator from the sorry sad sack so-called "state" of Alabama. As Foghorn says, "Fool me once . . . " Clearly, it's past time, in Warner Bros. estimation, for ANYONE with a connection to Lucifer\Putin's Pedophiliac Repug Party (aka, The GOOPERS) to be permanently placed on America's Sex Offender Registry, until such time as their U.S. Citizenship can be revoked on the grounds of High Treason and Conspiracy to Abet Sexual Predation (following the Benedict Arnold and John Wayne Gacy precedents). Before they're deported to the massive iceberg floating along Antarctica's Coast, of course, it will be incumbent upon the rest of We True Blue Loyal Patriotic Normal Average 99 Per Center Silent Majority Progressive Union Label Citizens to use America's Civil Forfeiture Laws to strip these Fifth Columnist Quislings of their ill-gotten assets, property, weapons, and Bitcoins to pay off the outrageous National Debt for which they're responsible. As SOCK A DOODLE DO proves, you can either punch Evil in the face, or you're part of the problem.
utgard14 A boxing rooster named Kid Banty, the Pinfeatherweight Champion of the World, falls out of his trailer onto the highway and makes his way to the farm where Foghorn Leghorn lives. Foghorn and his nemesis Barnyard Dog are busy making each others' lives miserable, as usual. It quickly becomes obvious that Kid Banty is a little 'punchy.' Whenever he hears a bell ring he immediately starts boxing whoever is in front of him. Foghorn and Dog waste no time trying to use this to their advantage in their never-ending feud. A funny short with several good gags and lines. The animation is colorful and bright with well-drawn characters and backgrounds. The music is cheery and upbeat. Mel Blanc is wonderful as usual and Sheldon Leonard does a great job as Kid Banty. A fun cartoon that Foghorn fans will enjoy.
TheLittleSongbird Whether the Foghorn Leghorn cartoons are among the best cartoons ever made is up for debate. I for one get much entertainment out of them, which matters more to me. Sock a Doodle Doo is one of Foghorn's better ones. It is not much different from what we usually see, apart from a new support character, so the ending for example is on the predictable side. However, the animation is fluid and lusciously coloured and the music as ever with Carl Stalling is dynamic and full of energy. The dialogue has the razor sharp wit that you'd hope, as with most of his cartoons Foghorn bags the best lines, and the gags are clever and never less than humorous. Foghorn is still engaging and distinctive, and Barnyard is a cunning foil. You may argue that these two have no reason to fight, the fact that they work so well together doesn't make that too much of a problem to me. The rooster(?) character counterpoints with them fairly well if perhaps rather bland in comparison. Mel Blanc does a sterling job as ever. To conclude, a fun and very good cartoon. 8/10 Bethany Cox
Chip_douglas The relationship between Foghorn Leghorn and the Barnyard Dog might well be the strangest in the entire Warner stable, as there is just no natural reason for a rooster and a dog to fight. The fact that both of them seem to enjoy hurting each other equally makes it hard to feel much affection for either of them. To make matters worse, they always try to manipulate each and every visitor to their farm purely to get at each other. While Foggy and B.Y. are trying to out doodah each other, Kid Banty, the world's pinfeatherweight Fighting Rooster champ accidentally arrives on Old Macdonald's farm. The Kids' problem is that each time he hears a bell, he starts throwing punches. It does not make any difference to him if it's a cow bell, an alarm clock, a triangle or a grandfather clock.Naturally Foghorn forgoes his game of hopscotch to make use of the Kid's potential. At one point he even convinces Barnyard Dog to be Kid Banty's sparring partner. But eventually Barnyard always gets the better of Foggy's by building another elaborate contraption. In fact, Barnyard comes up with some of his most inventive traps ever in "Sock a Doodle Do", involving flying saucers and a Hula Hula hut. You can bet all the gags ring a bell for Banty.6 out of 10
