You must know, this is Mickey Mouse's very first film. Although it may not have been as striking as 'Steamboat Willie,' in my heart, it was exceptionally well-made! In this version, Mickey is an unpretentious mouse without shoes or gloves, only wearing a pair of pants, yet his imaginative idea to construct an airplane is truly captivating. Moreover, Walt Disney's brilliant concept to portray him as a comical character during the chase after the airplane, showcasing antics that were groundbreaking for its time and unmatched by many animations then.
However, there's a critical point I'd like to address: When Mickey manages to stabilize the plane, he insists on kissing Minnie against her will. This scene does highlight an unsavory aspect; as some netizens put it, 'It teaches us that forcing a woman to do something she's hesitant about doesn't end well.'
Lastly, the ending where Mickey falls from the sky serves as a subtle satire of American society at that time. It's because of Walt Disney's grand vision that the world was introduced to a novel cartoon character, marking the start of a new era. From then on, the wheels of destiny turned, leading to series like 'Mickey Mouse Clubhouse' and more, ultimately seeing Mickey become metaphorically the 'big boss' (a Chinese internet slang term indicating the incredible influence and power of Mickey Mouse and Disney, capable of acquiring major studios such as FOX and Marvel).
Due to the word count restriction, I plan to pen an English essay in the future to fully translate this piece. The main reason being that my current English translation exceeds the allotted words. Thus, for now, I can only convey the essence in Chinese. Therefore, I hope readers can grasp the thoughts and views expressed by the author and appreciate the positive values held by a Chinese individual. Thank you!
