Subjective Rating: 8/10 (Great, 4/4). It's got everything one loves about mid-century educational films, crossed with a heavy dose of Chuck Jones. And although it's a propaganda film, I don't imagine it did much for the government. The tone straddles a line between entertainingly educational, and satire.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.7/4 (Good)
