Watch Get a Horse! For Free

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

I watched this short for the first time today when it was included as a bonus feature on my 'Frozen' DVD. At first it looked like an old black and white cartoon (reminiscent of 'Steamboat Willie') that barely filled my screen but when Pete throws Mickey and Minnie out of the screen in another world, it became more colourful and filled my screen.The use of hybrid animation here is the asset that surprised me the most. While the black and white animation was smooth with a classical look, the CGI animation looked cheap for Disney but was bright and colourful. I liked how the antics of the characters combined with those in the audience, such as a lady's nachos being knocked over and Mickey answering an iPhone. It was funny when Mickey and other characters spun the screen around to replay Pete getting electrocuted and falling onto a gardening tool etc and also when Pete chased the characters around the screen and the cinema, thus causing their animation styles to alter.All in all this is a funny cartoon with a decent use of hybridity albeit its cheap-looking CGI. 8/10.

This short was nominated for the Academy Award for Animated Short (and probably should have won). There will be spoilers ahead: This short is a remarkable piece of work and probably the best short Disney has done in the last 30 years. This is a blend of old and new Disney animation styles and themes. An excellent addition to the Mickey Mouse canon. I have to talk about the short itself.The plot is deceptively simple. Mickey and a bunch of the old time characters (like Horace Horsecollar and Clarabelle Cow) are going on a hayride. Mickey has a fascinating dispute with his pants and then climbs on the hay wagon, to be joined by Minnie Mouse.Pegleg Pete comes up on the wagon and behaves like Pete, trying to kidnap Minnie. That's when things get interesting, as Pete uses Mickey and Horace as a bludgeon until he tears a hole in the fourth wall and color is born. Mickey and Horace wind up on the other side of the screen and things start getting nuts. Horace hits the snack bar and "borrows" someone's cellphone. Mickey turns Horace into a plane to try to get back at Pete with predictable results.Then Mickey starts discovering nice little things to do with the screen and to Pete as a consequence, amusing Minnie and everyone else in the process. The short is totally crazy at this point. They don't just break the fourth wall, they obliterate it and fun is had by all (except Pete).Archival audio is used to have the original voices for Mickey, Minnie and Pete appear in the short and it's very effectively handled. This short is an extra on the DVD and Blu-ray releases of Frozen. The short is well worth watching. Most highly recommended.

Get a Horse! is a fantastic short film with a quick but very enjoyable storyline filled lots of fun and colourful characters.I really enjoyed the mix of the old fashioned black and white animation and the CGI animation that is used in every animated film that's made today.The film showed before Frozen,and it really got me in to the Disney spirit and got me excited for the feature film.Ir was great seeing the very lovable Mickey Mouse for the first time in years on the big screen once again,and this was a very interesting way of bringing him back.All in all,Get a Horse is a great short film that Disney fans will love. Mickey and Minnie Mouse go on a wagon ride,but Pete gets in the way when he tries to once again kidnap Minnie.

When me and my movie theatre-working friend went to watch Frozen at the place he works at, this cartoon short was attached to it. Begun in the old school black-and-white drawn phase with the original screen dimensions, when Mickey is thrown off the screen, he becomes a 3-D computer-generated color character filling the rest of the current outlines of the frame. And with that, the real fun begins as many tricks suddenly become possible with various ways of turning the screen-or frames-whichever way one wants it to go! I also was surprised that Walt Disney himself was credited with the voice of his famous mouse before finding out here that the studio not only used vintage tracks of his from previous cartoons but also those of Marcellite Garner for Minnie and Billy Bletcher for Peg-Leg Pete. I found most of the thing quite creatively funny so on that note, I highly recommend Get a Horse!
