Review of On Ice

On Ice (1935)
9/10
Gorgeous...simply gorgeous

This cartoon STILL is a great looking cartoon nearly 80 years later! Yes, despite coming out in the mid-1930s, the quality of the animation and gorgeous Technicolor make this a timeless classic.

The film is set during the winter and all the favorite Disney characters of the day are in the short--Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto, Goofy and even Clarabelle and Horace! The characters get into all sorts of trouble while ice skating--and the film is jam-packed full of cute vignettes and laughs that still hold up today! Well worth seeing and a great representation of the best Disney was capable of in the day. In fact, compared to Disney shorts of the 40s and 50s, this one is actually superior overall--especially because of the great backgrounds.
