The Three Caballeros

Underrated Though it may be forgotten today, This film is definitely a must watch for any Donald Duck fan.

Creo que es una película con un tema bastante interesante y original, ya que es una especie de documental animado, que habla sobre las distintas tradiciones y el folclore propio de Latinoamérica. Es decir, no cuenta una historia súper interesante, sino que, de forma bastante alegre y a mi gusto respetuosa, va mostrando digamos que lo más conocido de estos países. Tal vez sea algo sentimental, pero me dio mucha alegría ver a mi país representado en uno de los cortos. Además, es bastante sorprendente que en esos años se diera visibilidad a una región que ha sido en general bastante olvidada, así que buena película.

When it is Donald Duck birthday, his birds friends from around the world sent him some presents, presents that will make Donald have some experiences in the home country of his friends, wich would be Brazil, with Zé Carioca and Mexico, with Panchito. The movie is produced by Walt Disney himself, directed by Norman Ferguson, Clyde Geronimi, Jack Kinney, Bill Roberts and Harold Young. Written by Homer Brightmen, Ernest Terrazas, Ted Sears, Bill Peet, Ralph Wright, Elmer Plummer, Roy Williams, William Cottrell, Del Connell and James Bodrero. According to which present Donald Duck opens, he get into some adventure in other country culture, so is nice how he recieves a book, for example, and then when he opens it he can get inside of that and live that place, it is a very nice teaching, and it is real, if you read a book you can totally immerse into that story, the same happens with the film projector. The story introduces some characters into it in a very fun way, there a lot of small tales told in it, that i gotta say that sometimes they were more fun then than the actual big plot with the main characters in here. The main plot is more than anything about meeting a bit of the culture in Brazil and Mexico, and it get more than anything in a music kind of way, at the beginning it was going nice and being fun, but it got so repetitive, that for me, it was boring at the point that took me completed out of the movie, i wasn't focusing anymore in anything in the film, it was every time like Donald getting in somewhere with a lot of women and he falling in love for them, flirting with them, at the beginning it was being fun, but as a long film, that got boring, this kind of film works better as a episodic show, wich is where those characters and this kind of program makes more sucess. The musics of the movie are mostly fun, the mixing of nacionality and languages with accent made things a lot of fun, some songs that stuck in the head, like the Bahia one, that was great. The movie overall is very funny, there are some things during the movie that really got me laughing, simple things wich makes thing even nicier, some characters that almos never showed up, but just for the fact of the nonsense, wich is very characteristic of these movies, are a lot of fun, is to bad that the movie kind of lost it during the course of the movie, at the half things was going pretty nice, after it got boring. The colors of the movie are beautiful, it completely owns that aspect of surrealism, colors jumping at you with images of things out of place, a lot of colors shining in the screen, i like that, the clips of music was really creative and fun. I have never been a big fan of cartoon mixed with live action movies, i don't personally dislike it, but i definely don't feel much pleasure in watching it, i don't feel that shock that was supose to, where the real life get in contact with the fantastic one, i like the idea, but i didn't liked how it gets, but still it is connected to that other moment in the movie where they say that if you read a book or watch a movie you pretty much get inside of that universe, that pleases me a lot. The characters are great, the best one, by far, is Zé Carioca, as a brazilian i gotta say that his accent in the movie speaking english is perfect, it is great and funny as hell to listen to him, he is charming and very stylish, and dubbed with maestry. Donald Duck in other hand i didn't felt much cool, i couldn't understand a world, i found fun the way that he speak, but i gotta understand, the same voice actor did the voice of him in other languages beyond english, i didn't like it. Panchito was also very nice, his maneirisms was different, and his characteristics were cool, he gave some different spirit to the movie. The movie is fun until some point, but the overall of stories being told in here didn't pleased me mcuh, the second half of the movie wasn't pleasing, it got boring, i liked the nonsense in a lot of moments throught the movie, the simplicity in telling a crazy story worked, and i believe that the main point in here was to tell a bit of other cultures, wich kind of worked.

this should of made the Latins go **** gaga this is a all time low young Disney the only saving grases of this movie is the song and the chemistry between the caballeros and that's it cartoons flirting with people bad the segments bad pretty much all bad do not watch this just go on the Epcot ride
