"All a Bir-r-r-d"


"All a Bir-r-r-d" (short), 1950. Sylvester and Tweety are on a train together. Directed by Friz Freleng. Written by Tedd Pierce. Starring Mel Blanc.

Concept: 1/4 (Bad)
Story: 1/4 (Bad)
Characters: 1/4 (Bad). I've never understood the draw to these two.
Dialog: 1/4 (Bad)
Pacing: 3/4 (Good)
Cinematography: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Special effects/design: 4/4 (Great). Wonderful backgrounds. Too bad there are only a few shots where you get to appreciate them.
Acting: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Music: 4/4 (Great)
Subjective Rating: 5/10 (Indifferent, 2/4). There's only one funny gag in the whole cartoon - unless you think seeing a cat get punched in the face is funny.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.1/4 (Okay)
