Toy Tinkers

This Disney cartoon short with Donald Duck and Chip and Dale is for sure the best Christmas cartoon short film of all time. A fabulous Christmas mood is brought to the cinema screen in perfect drawings. A wintry landscape, the traditional tree-felling of the Christmas tree, a beautiful home with fantastic Christmas decorations - everything is there: classic gifts and sweets under the tree, which is then decorated by Donald, and little rascals who fight a Christmas battle with the popular duck Makes children's hearts beat faster - and not just their hearts. Timeless, classic, simply beautiful. A masterpiece.

"Toy Tinkers" is a very entertaining short film that demonstrates the importance of Christmas from a different perspective, but it's worth giving it a chance. A short film that stands out for its great musical score and universally recognized themes. Each score is phenomenal and establishes a connection both with the viewer and with the images seen on screen.

The animation is very good. Incredible what could be done for the time. A formidable job that further complements the adventures of our little friends.

The narrative argument is solid, interesting, and very rich in reflections; despite this, from my perspective, it loses a bit due to the comedy, though this certainly does not detract from its merit. It has its strong moments but they are well executed. Seeing such iconic characters again will always be a good idea.

Innocence, imagination, the Christmas spirit, sharing, danger, personal well-being, friendship, theft, karma, war, and teamwork are depicted in a great way. Excellent messages for the little ones at home and even for the adults who revisit these Christmas classics.

Despite its Oscar nomination for Best Animated Short Film, I think it could have been much better.

6.5/10.

I will admit that I much prefer Pluto's Christmas Tree, but this is a very amusing cartoon. My only complaint is that it is noticeably more violent than other Christmas vignettes. The animation and the music are lovely, and a lot of the episode is laugh-out-loud funny. I loved the part when Chip an' Dale put a candle in the telephone, and when Donald answered it, it exploded, it was hilarious. Chip an' Dale are as sweet as ever, especially when they argue over the Christmas present. It was also nice to see Donald having fun, though he isn't as temperamental as he appears in other episodes. Overall, a very amusing and well done cartoon, not the best, but well worth looking out for! 9/10 Bethany Cox.

With "Donald Duck" safely ensconced at home with his freshly chopped tree preparing for Christmas, the mischievous "Chip" and "Dale" peer through his window at the alluring selection of treats on his carpet and thanks to their powerful incisors, are swiftly helping themselves to his seasonal nuts. Once their host cottons on to their thievery, though, there seems little likelihood of a truce between what rapidly become two warring parties making full use of an array of toys and confectionary - even an Howitzer - but will there be a victor or perhaps some pipes of peace? This is an enjoyably colourful and lively cartoon with the chipmunks always an affably good foe for a "Donald" whose squeaky and increasingly frustrated dulcets always made me smile. There's plenty of tit-for-tat and a jolly score to help it along, too. The Christmas spirit is definitely alive and well with this!

This is actually a very good short. All too often both Donald and Chip n' Dale get on my nerves after a very short period of time and, paired together, they're like fingernails on a chalkboard. This one works for some unfathomable reason. Good story, I guess. Nominated for an Academy Award and is a very good cartoon. Well worth looking for. Recommended.
