Steineded How sad is this?

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Michael_Elliott Canned Feud (1951) *** 1/2 (out of 4)Hilarious cartoon has Sylvester being left alone for two weeks and thankfully he has a cupboard full of food to eat. Sadly the mouse has the can opener so Sylvester must do battle in order to get it. I'm really not a big fan of Sylvester but this is a great short with one wonderful joke after another. The movie gets off to a very fast and furious pace and never slows down until the final credits come on. There are many great moments but my favorite would have to be seeing the fur-less Sylvester. That site is certainly worth anyone's seven minutes. The final gag at the end also works quite well. The mouse here is certainly the bad guy even though poor Sylvester takes all the beatings.

tavm Watching Friz Freling's Canned Feud, I found myself feeling very sorry for Sylvester for not getting the can opener, to open tuna, from a mean little mouse since no reason is established for his animosity. Still, its pretty funny seeing the cat trying to do nasty things back to the rodent and failing each time. And the twist at the end shows how exhausted Sylvester can get with each obstacle. So, with that in mind, I'll just say that despite the cat being more sympathetic this time around, that doesn't lessen the laughs I got from all his troubles with the mouse, the can opener, and the way things turned out in the end. Frustration can be so hilarious when one calamity builds upon another. So, on that note, I highly recommend Canned Feud.

crazydude1989 This was a good idea for a Looney Toons short, BUT that mouse was so mean to poor Sylvester, when he was just trying to eat something. It would've been better if Sylvester won at the end.We find that his owners have taken off to California, leaving Sylvester locked in the house alone, with no milk. (He also tries opening the door but to no avail--how can the door be locked from the inside?) He then believes he'll starve to death, until he finds an entire cupboard of canned tuna fish. And all he needed was the can opener. Of course, that evil little rodent has stolen it, and will not give it to Sylvester. The mouse tries everything to make him miserable, when all he wants is cat food. How would that mouse feel if Sylvester was keeping him from a huge refrigerator of cheese? At the end, Sylvester stuffs loads of dynamite in the mouse hole and blows it up, and the can opener is amidst the rubble. He grabs it and runs to the cupboard to find it padlocked, and that mean mouse has stolen the key. Why did the writers of this short have to make Sylvester lose at the end after all he went through?I do agree--some shorts, Sylvester was being a jerk, and got what he deserved at the end, but in this one, you can't help but feel really sorry for that cat. (Same with Tom and Jerry.) Like I said, good idea, but that mouse deserved to get eaten by Sylvester. 7/10.

anxietyresister I'm sorry, but I found it impossible to get into the spirit of this short, due to the fact that my sympathies lay not with the nasty little mouse, but with poor Sylvester who does all he can to just to get a bite to eat, but ultimately ends up with nothing. Why should I feel any affection for this vile vermin, who tortures the innocent cat for all of 7 minutes for no other reason other than he is obviously deriving some sick pleasure in watching our favourite feline injure himself terribly just to get his paws on some food? In other cartoons maybe Sylvester deserves what he gets, but in this particular animation all he wants is a decent meal, and he doesn't even get a good pay-off in the end.. Just when he thinks he's won, that rancid rodent has one more trick up his furry sleeve. Yes, like most Fritz Freleng classics, it's fantastically inventive and devilishly clever in it's own right, but so what? After it had finished I was left with a bad taste in my mouth no amount of soap and water could remove. Its not over yet though.. when I have the time and resources, I will remake "Canned Feud", this time putting in a far more satisfying ending than the current atrocity. Sylvester will have his tuna yet.. ;)
