Pluto is always fun to watch, not the strongest of characters but he's cute and amusing at least. In Dutch is not a disappointment from Disney or from Pluto. Don't expect too much from the story, not really ever has been a strong suit in the Pluto shorts, it is rather routine and predictable. The energy, colour and emotional impact however is to be admired. The animation is great, some of the most fluid and colourful of the (relatively) middle-era Pluto shorts. The Dutch setting and attention to detail is just as impressive. The music doesn't disappoint either, it is as characterful and as lush as you expect. In Dutch is a lot of fun, with the right amount of tension(the whole fixing of the dam), tenderness(with Pluto crying like raindrops and Dinah trying to console him) and charm(the very end), and the pacing is without a hitch too. Pluto is wholly likable and Dinah is beyond cute.
All in all, while not much new story-wise, In Dutch is a winner. 9/10 Bethany Cox
