Review of Little Toot

. . . to wash out the little brats' mouths with soap, make them gargle bleach or even to spank them. LITTLE TOOT might be the next best thing in the way of child discipline, since it's virtually guaranteed to scare the carp out of them. This juvenile fright fest features a youngster who is constantly pestering a parent in the work place--an increasingly common problem, now that half of us are working from home. One day this young miscreant crosses a line of no return, causing a major maritime disaster. The shameful lad's misdeed is so evil that his parent is sentenced to life at hard labor on a garbage detail. The terrible tot himself is exiled forever from our American Homeland, getting towed out to mid-ocean and scuttled, which is another way of saying "drowned." Though film censors required Dizzy to tack on a few seconds of incongruous afterlife involving a sea gull resurrecting LITTLE TOOT, parents just need to hit the "off" button shortly after eight minutes--when the bird is barfing into the empty life saver ring--to restore the original integrity of this scared straight lesson.
