Dig The Mouse In The Davy Crockett Hat!, 7 November 2007
8/10
Author: ccthemovieman-1 from Lockport, NY, United States

In this takeoff of "The Three Bears," we get cats instead, led by the patriarch "Sylvester." The baby cat has "spoiled brat" written on his highchair so immediately you know that's going to be a key part of the story. The "brat" has a point: "cats don't eat porridge; I want a mouse."

While the cats go for a walk in the forest, little "Goldimouse" comes out of her hole, tastes the porridge, gets sleepy and winds up in the spoiled brat's bed snoring away. By the way, for those old enough to remember, check out the Davy Crockett coonskin cap on the little cat. Now there is some good nostalgia. There are a number of little things like that in this cartoon that made it better than one might think.

It takes until the halfway point for some really good jokes, however, but they do arrive. Goldimouse is pretty funny just in her blonde wig and dress - and the kid cat - a typical teen with peer pressure - has lines like "how can I face my friends with a father who can't catch a mouse? For shame, for shame!" He then puts a paper bag over his head. (It looked better than the way I'm telling it.)
