What a waste of my time!!!

Just perfect...

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

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Was very fond of Woody Woodpecker and his cartoons as a child. Still get much enjoyment out of them now as a young adult, even if there are more interesting in personality cartoon characters and better overall cartoons.Can definitely understand where the previous reviewer is coming from, despite liking it more. Love Woody and Wally Walrus together, and while 'What Sweepin' is a long way from either of them at their best it is still a good representation of what is fun about their partnership in the first place and how well they work together. Story-wise, it's hardly original and for a Woody Woodpecker cartoon very familiar structurally albeit a different setting and Woody and Walrus taking on different jobs.Pacing definitely could have been sharper, it is agreed that 'What's Sweepin' sags in the middle and that it could have been clearer what the setting was. Woody and Wally have done funnier and more imaginative cartoons, especially before 'What's Sweepin'.Neither Woody or Wally disgrace themselves. Wally is characterised very well and faithfully, taking the butt of the jokes well and is easier to root for. Personally don't mind Woody's milder personality, it fit with the start of the cartoon and the situation and he carries the cartoon very well, though there were times where the cartoon called for his more manic personality and it wasn't quite there.As ever, the animation is very good. The characters are well drawn, but even better are the rich colours, meticulously detailed backgrounds and smooth backgrounds.Music is another strength here. It's characterful, lushly orchestrated and is not only dynamic with the action it even enhances it. There are still some amusing gags timed well if not in the most inspired of ways, and the pace does pick up at the end for a typically wild finale.Overall, decent if unexceptional. 7/10 Bethany Cox

This episode of the Woody Woodpecker franchise is saggy in the middle, because of the relatively weak gags, and the the inconsistency of the setting -- at first it seems to be turn-of-the-century, given Wally Walrus' antique police uniform and Woody's occupation as a 'White Wings' street sweeper, but there is a television set used as part of one gag....Even worse than those is the watering down of Woody's manic personality in the decade since Seamus Culhane was in charge of his best shorts. It may have been more realistic to not have Woody split into four or five doppelgangers, as in THE BARBER OF SEVILLE, as if realism was a primary concern of of cartoon makers. But it's a heck of a lot less interesting.
