Why this was listed under the "humor" of the Animated Express DVD is a bit puzzling because it really isn't funny....not that it isn't entertaining and beautifully drawn, though.
The combination of color and black-and-white make it intriguing, but the color - especially in high-def - is stunning. You are never sure what kind of strange sight you're going to see next in this story even if the tale is somewhat bland.
It all has to do with a solitary man working in an office by himself year after year, and a yearly card and present from his mother. Those two wind up sort of telling the tale by the time it's all done at the end. The story will keep you interested, Mainly, you'll be wondering how is this all tied together and going to end? Recommend, but don't expect a lot of laughs.
