I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

"Wet Paint" is an American 6.5-minute cartoon from 1946, so this one had its 70th anniversary last year already and it is a release from directly after World War II. Donald is the star here, so it is another Disney short film from these highly prolific days and this time the humanized duck is up against another bird, a yellow one in fact, but one that is far more interesting than Tweety or Woodstock. Anyway, lots of ax swinging from Donald here and even a gun gets fired. The names King, Williams and Nash stand for quality of course and here their collaboration mounts into something extraordinary. I really enjoyed the watch. The bird(s) deliver(s) through cuteness, but still works well in a way that he really makes Donald look so funny. One tantrum early on was hilarious when it seems Donald is trying to shut his mouth with his hands being shocked by his own outburst. In addition, the ending is pretty sweet and touching almost and Donald's reaction is pure comedy gold when he sees the little birdies. What else can I say, it's one of the best Donald cartoons I have seen and also among the very best from 1946, which means quite something if you look how popular and frequent new cartoons were back then. I guess that is all. A fast, funny and clever movie. Highly recommended.

The Disney cartoon shorts lost their innovative edge after the start of WWII. This is especially the case when the Donald Duck shorts became Disney's most popular cartoons. They regrettably fell in the trap of becoming repetitive formulas much like the Tom and Jerry or Looney Tune shorts were. It started right around the time that this short, Wet Paint was released.Fortunately, this short redeems itself as having a heartwarming ending that some of the best Silly Symphonies in the 30's did. It has a critter inadvertently getting in Donald's way thus causing him to lose his temper and torment it. This case, a bird getting in the way of Donald giving his car a new coat of paint. Donald grows impatient with the bird, Suzie, until he realizes what she is up to. One of the better Donald vs. critter shorts of this time; Where Donald doesn't get owned in the end.

In this Disney cartoon short, Donald Duck repaints his car, but gets interfered by a string-loving bird. After tangling with the bird, Donald finds himself painting over bird tracks, hand prints and dirt on his vehicle. His flustered expressions are classic and funny, and Donald gets almost the brunt of all the bad luck in this short. But, the bird doesn't seem crafty and mischievous like Donald's other adversities like the irritating honey bee and the selfish and greedy Chip n'Dale. Instead, it's just a playful little innocent animal who just want to befriend Donald, as the ending shows.Overall, a nice little cartoon with redeeming qualities, despite Donald getting the bad luck again as usual.Grade B-

I've always loved Disney and Donald Duck. Wet Paint is not an immediate favourite, but it is a lovely and amusing cartoon. Beautiful animation(look at the vibrancy of the colouring and fluidity of the backgrounds), a sweet engaging story and an energetic music score are definite things to like. Donald is as lovable and as temperamental as ever, what happens with his temperament is one of Wet Paint's interest points, and seeing Susie here makes you wish she was in more cartoons.In conclusion, a lovely cartoon that has two great characters, a story that engages you, a few amusing moments and of course wonderful production values. 10/10 Bethany Cox
