Donald Duck and the Gorilla

If I had to sum up Donald Duck and the Gorilla in one word, I have to say classic. It is a delightful Halloween cartoon, and one of my personal favourite Donald Duck cartoons. One that is both scary and funny.

The animation for back then is of true beauty and the music really adds to the atmosphere. The story moves very fast and is well structured, while the dialogue and sight gags are delightful. In terms of characters, it is Donald's show all the way, voiced by the brilliant Clarence Nash who IS Donald Duck in my opinion, but he is almost upstaged by Ajax the Gorilla.

Overall, a Halloween classic and a must see for fans of the cantankerous duck. 10/10 Bethany Cox

Yes, I know that it's easy to view gorillas as big, scary things. But that's a grossly inaccurate representation! Gorillas mostly eat plants, and when they resort to eating animals, it's mostly insects. To my knowledge, there's never been any record of a gorilla trying to eat a human. Quite the opposite: due to hunting and habitat loss, many species of gorilla are critically endangered. Dian Fossey (played by Sigourney Weaver in "Gorillas in the Mist") made it her life's work to show that gorillas are harmless creatures. Indeed, they share 95-99% of their DNA with humans.

The compilation movie "It Came from Hollywood" pokes fun at old B movies. Early in the movie, Gilda Radner's character hears of a gorilla on the radio and freaks out. It then shows scenes from old movies that depicted gorillas attacking humans. "Donald Duck and the Gorilla" is basically that sort of movie. I don't care if this short is supposed to be silly entertainment, it still misrepresents these gentle apes. NOT a good cartoon.

I did like the umbrella gag, though.

I thought that the characters were really funny and all had great personalities. The animation in My opinion was crisp, clean, and really clear. Not to mention beautiful! Most of the characters in this show are hilarious Looney Tunes characters that we all love. in My opinion these characters are the funnies and talented ever seen. In fact, The things that goes on in this series' cartoons are in My opinion nuts which that is what makes them hilarious! There are so many to like and laugh at and the silly things they do! If you like the original Looney Tunes and animated films then I strongly recommend that you watch this movie today!

Like "Lonesome Ghosts" and "Trick or Treat" this is part of the Disney Halloween Cartoon Trilogy. The story is simple as it is for most cartoons: Ajax, the killer gorilla has escaped from the city zoo and is in the area. You can guess where he turns up! Full of laughs!

This is a very thrilled and horrible film, when I first saw the title card, I couldn't help shivering, the background is probably the most terrible and horrid Donald Duck short I ever seen.

It's a stormy night, probably mentioned something unexpected is going to happen, but sure enough, the radio announcer notify everyone a dangerous gorilla named Ajax is escaped, Donald and three nephews apparently unawared it and make fun each other, but when the real Ajax coming, Donald and nephews all in mortal danger, scared and hide each other, it's actually really thrilled, and I wonder why the delirious Ajax want to chased Donald and three nephews with no intent, Donald seen out of control also.Donald Duck almost get MURDERED by Ajax! Donald still have some funny moves,too, like when he open the doorknob(which his candle wax had made it hot), he screamed: OUCH! Then Donald's three nephews use a tear gas to stop Ajax, to make him cry with his evil conscience, but it also make Donald cried too, It's still funny when Donald and Ajax cried and console one another, I still wonder why Donald Duck and three nephews live in such a perish house, which contained gorilla suit and a tear gas, probably for the horror background for a dangerous gorilla to appeared.And Donald in the short seen rather insaned in the short, he never stop move and act fast, even when Ajax is chasing him throughout his house. That's thrilling! Ajax's roar and moves seen rather scary and made pepole stand on end, I think is similar to King Kong, though.

I also wonder why is the idea about to make duck and gorilla mix together, and gorilla is not a predator, it almost never tried to eat human! If on my words, this short is very classical, especially when Ajax is chasing Donald, which Donald use nervous semi-intelligible voice to moaned, DONALD DUCK, Good escape!
