Fun film

I enjoyed watching this film. In this film, there are no dialogue. However, We are easy to understand the situation. The content is easy. I think that children can enjoy this film, too. I think that this film may be good for children to show importance to throw away rubbish in correct place, a rubbish box. Next, I think that this film expresses deed of human beings. Some people throw away rubbish on load. Although there are people who clean rubbish, there are rubbish on load because some people throw away rubbish. This is bad. We must stop throw away rubbish to keep clean in the world. I think that this film may show us these things.

...proving once again that people are stupid!
planktonrules3 November 2008
This is a very clever little film and everything seemed to work together very, very well to produce a film that deserves to be seen. In its 3 minutes, TOM SWEEP tells a great little story and reminds us once again that people are stupid! A cute little guy is trying to do the right thing and clean up his neighborhood. However, when he approaches a garbage can to empty it, one thoughtless person after another come by and make an even bigger mess. No matter how hard Tom tries, it's all an exercise in futility.

The reasons this film works so well are many. The animation, while simple, has a great style and works well since Tom is rather cute. The simple French-sounding accordion music sets a great mood as well. Plus, the writing was really good in order to provide enough rapid-fire and clever gags to keep my attention. What a great little film and I sure hope to see more from the folks who made it.

to clean
Kirpianuscus9 August 2022
The realism of story can be considered the main virtue of this very short film about a man, looking like the little man by Ion Popescu Gopo to clean the street, against the indifference, indolence, selfishness of people. So, a sort of parable, about rubish in very large sense.

Nice music, fair message.

And something reminding the value of honesty , admirable served by the simplicity of animation.
