Featured review
Two mountain lions with one duck in a fishy tale
Disney and Donald Duck are reasons enough to watch any cartoon, and Hook, Lion and Sinker is just one example of why I love them so much. Donald is great as usual, the briskly paced story being an ideal match for his trademark temperamental personality, while Louie is a cunning and lively foil and his son is sweet but never overly cutesy. The animation is as hoped very pleasing to look at, anybody who loves vibrant colours and great background detail will be as very satisfied with the animation quality here as I am. The music has lush and upbeat orchestration and enhances the action perfectly. The gags are very funny, while the being-shot-in-the-bottom gag is a running gag that is used a lot the situations, of Louie and son's ways of stealing the fish from Donald, are varied so it is a running gag that doesn't wear thin. For me though the best gag was when Louie turned into one of the mounted lions on the wall to avoid being shot at. And I loved that Hook, Lion and Sinker was a case of Donald getting the upper hand, something that you don't see very often. In conclusion, if you like Disney or Donald you'll enjoy Hook, Lion and Sinker very much. 10/10 Bethany Cox
