Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Toy Tinkers" is an American cartoon from 1949, so this one has its 70th anniversary soon and if you take a look at cast and crew here, you will find the names of many prolific and successful artists working for Disney. Their 7.5 minutes here bring us another clash between Donald and Chip and Dale, this one here with many references to the holidays. Fittingly it was released in the month of December too back then. I think it was an okay watch with solid fun overall. The Christmas spirit it never really delivers, but it has enough strengths in other fields, mostly the comedy aspect, the animation too of course, to still be very much worth seeing. What I also liked especially here is that it was not too politically correct, also not scared of slight depictions of violence and seeing how well they work here, you could say it's a pity they were so careful otherwise because it could have elevated the material in other cartoons too. Still, this does not make an impact when it comes to the nonexistent dramatic component, but adds to fun and absurdity. I am generally not a great Chip and Dale fan I guess, but here they are as convincing as everything and everybody else and the latter also refers to the toys because they were so central in the story here that they almost feel like actual characters. No surprise they are mentioned in the title too. It was a good watch and I recommend seeing it, not particularly during the holidays only, but also at any other time of the year.

Michael_Elliott Toy Tinkers (1949) *** (out of 4) Donald goes into the forest and cuts down a Christmas tree, which is witnessed by Chip and Dale who in return sneak into Donald's house to steal some walnuts. After they're caught the two sides battle with various ornaments and toys. This film has a lot in common with DONALD'S SNOW FIGHT, which featured Donald doing battle with his two nephews and I think you can also see that this film had an influence on PLUTO'S Christmas TREE, which had Pluto doing battle with Chip and Dale after they got into his home. This middle film isn't nearly as great as the other two but I think there's enough here to keep people entertained. I think the highlight of the movie is a sequence where the chipmunks are on a train and have to try and steal the walnuts from Donald who has a few tricks of his own. Throughout the film the animation is top-notch and there's no question that there's enough action for two movies.

Mightyzebra Like quite a lot of Looney Tunes episodes and even some Disney Mickey Mouse and Friends episodes, this has quite a lot of slapstick, but luckily a lot of witty humour to top it off. Basically, Chip and Dale are woken up at night-time when Donald Duck chops down a tree for his Christmas tree in their forest. When Chip and Dale see his house (to where he is going) they decide to follow him and come up to his house chock full of toys and sweets. Chip and Dale become very excited and start triggering their "stealing mood"...A cute, well-done cartoon, also very funny, this is a lovely Christmas short that many will like. This is recommended for fans of the cute little chipmunks, people who are excited to find out what happens next (if they have read the eye-catching blurb above) and people who also like Donald Duck having his revenge on Chip and Dale and how he does it/tries.Enjoy "Toy Tinkers"! :-)

Robert Reynolds 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.
