Shanghaied Shipmates (1936)
*** (out of 4)
A dirty and mean Captain forces Porky Pig and several other men on board his ship where he works them too hard and at dinner time refuses to give them anything except bones. Soon Porky has had enough and stages a mutiny.
If you're a fan of the Porky Pig shorts then you'll certainly enjoy this one. While there aren't a great number of laughs there is some terrific animation as well as some great direction. What I enjoyed the most about this film is how it all just moves along at a nice pace and it has a great musical feel to it. The film packs a nice fight scene at the end and the music score is also very good and fits the material quite well.
