Alicia I love this movie so much

ThiefHott Too much of everything

Wordiezett So much average

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Clown of the Jungle" is an American cartoon from 1947, so it just had its 70th anniversary and the names Hannah, Nash and Colvig make it obvious that here we got another Disney short from back in the day. It runs for under 6.5 minutes, so certainly not one of their longest. The star is Donald in here, or lets say one of the stars as this is basically a two-man errr.. two-bird show when DD is a wildlife photographer in the jungle and there he meets Disney's equivalent to Woody Woodpecker you could say, maybe a bit more whiny and less confident, but very similarly looking. And the two birds dueling is all this film is about. I did not like this new character. Donald was okay, but he alone cannot carry this either, even if his mannerisms were kinda funny. The gadget-based humor was also not top-notch here. Eventually this is evidence of how characters and story are king and how the best animation and voice actors cannot make up for deficits in these crucial fields. A small thumbs-up for Donald as he cannot be blamed here, but the cartoon as a whole gets a thumbs-down from me. Not recommended.

OllieSuave-007 A narrator voiced over this cartoon short on a series of tropical birds in an African jungle. In the jungle photographing, or trying to, is Donald Duck. Like a previous cartoon, he seemed to never be able to pull the camera shutter. To make things complicated, an Aracuan Bird with a wacky cackling voice makes life difficult for Donald. What results is the usual bad luck Donald inherits.There are a few funny slapstick moments at Donald's expense. The animation was very nice and colorful and there are some of the classic Donald expressions that we've come to love. The birds singing and crooning like people singing were somewhat interesting to look at. It's still more of an average Donald cartoon, though.Grade C-

TheLittleSongbird This is also one of my favourite Donald Duck cartoons, and it is certainly the best of the ones featuring the Aracuan bird. The animation is vibrant and colourful, just look at the gorgeous backgrounds right at the start, and the music is as energetic and bouncy as ever before with a beautifully harmonised bird song. The story is a tad routine, but skips along very nicely in the pace, and the sight gags and humour are constantly hilarious, such as the sight of the Aracuan bird shaking Donald's beak. The Aracuan bird is absolute nuts(reminds me of a more maniacal version of Roadrunner), but isn't he funny? Donald's cantankerous and somewhat rude personality perfects contrasts. The vocal work is stellar. Clown of the Jungle is a short cartoon at 6 minutes, but it is 6 minutes or animated joy and fun. 10/1 Bethany Cox

action-6 Clown of the jungle is one of my all-time favorite Donald-movies. Donald is in the rainforest in South-America as a bird-photographer. All of Donald`s attempts of taking pictures of the rare birds are ruined by a bird who is absolutely crazy! That bird is what makes this one of my favorite Donald-movies and it is great fun for the entire family. 10/10
