Comments

From Lee Suggs : This short features a
confrontation between Mickey the Magician and Donald the heckler. The tricks
Mickey plays on Donald are a series of very clever sight gags. (I like Donald
transformed into a deck of cards best.) Mickey in his classic form, a bit
cruel to Donald, and the non-stop action make this one of the great color
Mickey shorts. The Mouse tended to become very bland after about 1935, but
he's in top form here. I wish they'd make some new shorts with him in classic
form.

From Jerry Edwards : Loved the conflict between
Mickey and Donald. Donald continually heckles Mickey's magic act, but Mickey
bests him at every turn. I especially enjoyed the ending of the cards still
coming out of Donald's mouth. Fun and full of gags - I still enjoy this after
watching it hundreds of times over the years.
-
From Nikki : This would have to be my all
time favorite short. I've had it taped ever since I was a child. Although
Mickey doesn't say a whole lot his act is just hysterical. Poor Donald just
doesn't know when to stop. The best part is still all the cards coming out
of Donalds mouth. It happens around 5 times but it still cracks me up.
-
From Jeff Walters : I'm a big Donald Duck
fan and this is definitely one of my favorites, although as usual, he doesn't
exactly win in the end. It's great to see Mickey not being too goody-two-shoes
in this one and playing tricks right back at Donald. I own this now on the
Walt Disney Treasures DVD, which includes the cut scene of Goofy being
electrocuted. Before buying it, it had been ten years at least since I'd
seen it and I've wondered, what's with that 'X' on the floor? I thought I
might have remembered a bunch of stuff falling on Donald there but I'm not
sure. Anyway, I love this short!
-
From Grace : A pretty hilarious, unbelivable
and competition cartoon on Mickey and Donald. Even though Donald starts to
laugh on one of Mickey's magic tricks like transforming the cape into a black
bird, it was funny when Mickey uses his wand to actually squirt water on
Donald's face and the egg trick.
-
From Baruch Weiss : This is one of my favorite
Mickey Cartoons. I enjoyed the music as well ans several other scenes such
as Donald changing into all sorts of creatures.
-
From Dino Cencia : I have 2 favorite parts in this short. 1. When Donald used Mickey's wand to make a ice cream cone with raspberry and the ice cream automagically went into Donald's face. 2. And a lot of playing cards coming out of Donald's mouth. Donald didn't like Mickey's magic show so he did his Donald tantrum. I loved this Mickey Mouse cartoon. I give it a 90.
