Watch Pluto's Judgement Day For Free

Too much of everything

Beautiful, moving film.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

"Pluto's Judgement Day" is a Disney cartoon from 1935, so this one is already over 80 years old and you see how old it really is best in here from Mickey's looks. It's a color cartoon though and Disney himself voiced Mickey here early on and at the very end. The star this time, however, is Mickey's dog Pluto and we find out about his hate against cats. But when Mickey mentions Judgment Day, then this results in the worst nightmare imaginable for Pluto as he is sentenced to death in a fire by a court full of cats. Everybody's feline: the judge, the lawyers, the jury, the audience. And the result, namely the verdict, comes as fast as you'd expect and also with the contents you'd expect. Not a problem at all that you know it is all a dream sequence because this way they get away with all the over-the-top stuff and absurdities even easier. The music is pretty good too. And if you take a look at the names of the voice actors here, it really is as good as it gets. And with all the horror elements, okay not THAT scary, there is still a happy ending in reality as Pluto just cannot resist the charm of a young kitten and the result may be a beautiful feline-canine friendship. Or will Pluto fall back to his old patterns? We won't know as the female cat does not return in any other cartoon. Still for me this is among the best the year 1935 has to offer in terms of cartoons and short films in general. A bizarrely entertaining and incredibly surreal watch that is best at its first viewing and one that you really wouldn't expect from Disney at that point. I highly recommend checking it out at least once. Of course, it is easy to find these days. Go for it and it is a must-see if you love old cartoons.

Whoever came up with the idea for this sick, twisted animated feature should be shot. I have no respect for any of the animators that were behind this disgusting tale of Pluto getting tortured by tons of cats. It disturbed me and my family so much we had to change the channel before it was over. All copies of this cartoon should be burnt and banned. If Disney wanted to send a message to little kids about respecting others, this certainly wasn't the way to do it. After Pluto chases a kitten & Mickey scolds him for it, Pluto has a nightmare about being trapped in a Cat Hell. He is put on trial for being mean to cats and is found guilty. When he is in court and "swears to tell the whole truth" on a Telephone book, his paw is snapped by a mousetrap and he yelps in pain. Whoever actually enjoyed this messed up fable needs some professional help.

This cartoon sees Pluto dream of a cat-controlled hell. After chasing a cute little kitten about the house and throwing mud everywhere, Mickey tells Pluto off and gives him some kind of Puritan Christian warning of hell and damnation.Once fallen asleep in front of the fire, Pluto's vision of cat-run hell and all the cats he's ever tormented coming back for vengeance quickly teaches him the error of his ways and he wakes up with a new-found love for felines.Kind of cute if you can get around the not-so-subtle Christian values message.

This is one of what I like to call, the Disney Halloween Triple. Among them are "Lonesome Ghosts" "Trick or Treat" and this one. In this cartoon Pluto is chased by cats into hell where he is tried by cats, do to his many crimes against the feline species. Kind of creepy!
