Donald Duck elevates this cartoon to a higher level- by the way the cartoon wasn't outstanding, but it was entertaining
25 October 2009
Orphan's Benefit is a very good cartoon, but it isn't the best of the Donald Duck cartoons, though probably one of his more popular ones. While the animation is very colourful, it was obvious it had been originally black and white, so some of the character movements were disappointingly stiff. And some of the jokes, while spot on most of the time, came across as slightly over-familiar in others. The music though is absolutely wonderful, one of the musical highlights of the cartoon was Clara Cluck singing the sextet from Lucia Di Lamenmoor. The orphans are adorable, and Donald voiced by the one and only Clarence "Ducky" Nash was on top form. While not a classic, this is well worth the watch. 8/10 Bethany Cox
