Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Sarita Rafferty 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.
peefyn In the opening of the previous Kapten Grogg shorts you get to see the animator drawing the opening shot. In this one the animator is working as usual, but he is tasked with making a portrait of Kapten Grogg. The good captain then comes for a visit, and turns into a slapstick chase through the apartment. It is surprisingly well done and fun! While the animation is clearly flawed at times (jumpy at some points, and see through at other), other scenes are really good!If you are watching these because you are curious about the history of animation, then don't skip this! It's actually really well done! I could imagine showing this short in front of later feature length movies doing the same thing, like Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Mary Poppins or Song of the South.
