Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Foreverisacastironmess I'm not sure if I ever really loved Pluto all that much as a Disney character even as a kid, but I probably liked him. I'm not too keen on him nowadays. He doesn't really look anything like a dog, he looks more like a sad grizzled old man! And he's so nasty and always barking at cute little animals and everything. It makes me laugh when Mickey or someone'll ask if he's hungry and he'll kinda pant/say "yeah, yeah!" I also find really funny the big yowl he makes when something will bite his tale! Anyway the point is, for me this is the best Pluto cartoon and I really like him in it, and I've always loved it. The structure and formula of this one is so classic Disney y'know? Like their classic template formula. You really feel sorry for Pluto in the first half when he and Mickey look all scruffy compared to the other dogs and owners, Pluto's unrequited love for the snobby girl dog, and the embarrassing way Pluto acts and gets them thrown out. But then Pluto saves the day and gets the girl, so it's the classic from the worst of places to the best of places kind of tale. I like the design of Mickey Mouse the best as he appears in this. This is the last ever short he appeared in with little black dots for eyes 'ya know. To me I found the cartoon a little slow for most of the first part, but then it takes off spectacularly when the fire bursts out Pluto's riding a flaming unexpected makeshift roller-coaster on skates! I just love all the action and momentum of that part, it's just exiting and brilliant! Not to mention the animation of the fire and everything looks amazing. That's what I love in my Disney cartoon shorts, something that'll grab you like that or tug at heartstrings. I love this one a lot, it starts out slow, but by the end it rocks! Pluto gets to be a real hero... Thank you.

TheLittleSongbird As I have said, the basic premise of Society Dog Show is very predictable. However putting that minor quibble aside, it is a hugely enjoyable silly symphony that fully reminds me of why I love Disney so much. Mickey is voiced by the master Walt Disney, and you have Pluto as energetic as ever, and voiced by the one and only Pinto Colvig. Another character that I loved was Fifi, who is not only really cute, but is at her most playful. The short is filled with clever and well timed gags, the best being the examination of Pluto by a disgruntled judge. Other elements that stood out were the gorgeous Technicolour animation and the music that is not only lively but quite lyrical as well. Overall, predictable, but nevertheless hugely enjoyable, where Pluto steals the show. I recommend it! 10/10 Bethany Cox

xfile1971 For reasons unknown, Mickey enters Pluto in a dog show. He sprays the poor dog with an unholy amount of perfume and drops a can on the ground. The can rolls away and Mickey disappears after it. That gives Pluto time to flirt with a cute little girl dog, Fifi.Well, Pluto attacks one of the show's judges and, understandably, him and Mickey are tossed out. Mickey straps some roller skates on Pluto and, next thing you know, the building housing the dog show is consumed in flames. It's up to Pluto to use his skates and bravery to try and rescue Fifi.Every second of this cartoon is nonsense and I continue to be amazed at what is so darn fascinating about Disney's shorts. Sure, Walt was fantastic at overseeing some wonderful full-length animated features. Sadly, that magic and creativity were consistently trashed when it came to producing shorts. 1/10

Ron Oliver A Walt Disney MICKEY MOUSE Cartoon.A proud Mickey takes Pluto to the SOCIETY DOG SHOW, where romance, ridicule & high adventure all await...This is an excellent little film, made during Disney's Golden Age - the animation, gags, and exciting climax are all first rate. Fifi only appeared in a mere handful of cartoons as Pluto's heartthrob; she gives her most playful performance here. Walt Disney supplied Mickey with his squeaky voice.Walt Disney (1901-1966) was always intrigued by pictures & drawings. As a lad in Marceline, Missouri, he sketched farm animals on scraps of paper; later, as an ambulance driver in France during the First World War, he drew comic figures on the sides of his vehicle. Back in Kansas City, along with artist Ub Iwerks, Walt developed a primitive animation studio that provided animated commercials and tiny cartoons for the local movie theaters. Always the innovator, his ALICE IN CARTOONLAND series broke ground in placing a live figure in a cartoon universe. Business reversals sent Disney & Iwerks to Hollywood in 1923, where Walt's older brother Roy became his lifelong business manager & counselor. When a mildly successful series with Oswald The Lucky Rabbit was snatched away by the distributor, the character of Mickey Mouse sprung into Walt's imagination, ensuring Disney's immortality. The happy arrival of sound technology made Mickey's screen debut, STEAMBOAT WILLIE (1928), a tremendous audience success with its use of synchronized music. The SILLY SYMPHONIES soon appeared, and Walt's growing crew of marvelously talented animators were quickly conquering new territory with full color, illusions of depth and radical advancements in personality development, an arena in which Walt's genius was unbeatable. Mickey's feisty, naughty behavior had captured millions of fans, but he was soon to be joined by other animated companions: temperamental Donald Duck, intellectually-challenged Goofy and energetic Pluto. All this was in preparation for Walt's grandest dream - feature length animated films. Against a storm of naysayers, Walt persevered and over the next decades delighted children of all ages with the adventures of Snow White, Pinocchio, Dumbo, Bambi & Peter Pan. Walt never forgot that his fortunes were all started by a mouse, or that childlike simplicity of message and lots of hard work always pay off.
