10/10
Beautifully crafted visually and just hilarious
13 February 2011
I don't know about anybody else but this is one of my favourite Mickey Mouse cartoons. And it is not just because Mickey, Goofy and Donald, who delight in everything they are in are together. Speaking of this trio, they are wonderful, they still have their warm personalities and all are funny. They are further advantaged by some fun voice work from Walt Disney, Pinto Colvig, Clarence Nash and Evia Allman.

The story is also a lot of fun, the cartoon is quite short but it is never dull and goes at a cracking pace. The animation is excellent too, very vibrant in the backgrounds and the characters move convincingly. Also technically, Mickey's Fire Brigade is very impressive. The music is rousing and energetic.

Where Mickey's Fire Brigade really works is in its humour. For me, this is one of the funniest Mickey-Donald-Goofy cartoons, I couldn't count the number of times I was laughing so much, so much so my sides got sore quite quickly. The writing brought a smile to my face, while the sight gags such as Mickey's fight with the water hose, Donald's battle with flames and Goofy being incinerated in the fire truck furnace(bizarre but it still worked) are well and truly spectacular.

So all in all, technically polished and hilarious in its humour, Mickey's Fire Brigade is a definite winner. 10/10 Bethany Cox
