I have to agree with the reviewer who came to realize that Mickey's rather docile character is lacking in charisma. So while this cartoon features his face and name, the bulk of the episode focuses more on his friends. Minnie is more interesting. Donald is more interesting. Pluto and Goofy are the main focus of this episode when you get right down to it. Considering how early in the animation game 1937 is, this feature is quite beautifully drawn and presented. The color and the sophistication of the animation works incredibly well. Pluto's encounter with a crab is very engaging.
