Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

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.

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.

Mutt has been appointed the judge at a dog show. He persuades Jeff to dress in a dog costume and they will split the prize money.This Mutt & Jeff cartoon spends a lot of budget on some good backgrounding and compensates for the expense by a lot of cheating -- cyclical or repetitive action that is cheaper than in-betweening a new sequence. Notice the crowd of dogs in pursuit of Jeff; a short sequence of different dogs repeats several times, as does the motion of that old stand-by of the vaudeville stage, the Automatic Sausage Machine, which had first appeared in the movies thirty years earlier.There are also some good gags, including a Limburger gag. The best involves what happens to Mutt when he is pursuing the runaway dogs.
