Watch The Magic Brew For Free

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Being in the mood to watch a short cartoon just before I set off to bed,I was pleased to spot an interesting-sounding 1915 animated short being mentioned on IMDbs Classic Film board,which led to me getting ready to take a sip of the magic brew.The plot:Sitting in a bar smoking & drinking,a monster suddenly pops out of a mans head.Initially thinking that the monster will join in the drinking,the man soon discovers that the monster has other plans.View on the film:Running at 36 seconds instead of the 3 minute running time that IMDb list,director Victor Bergdahl makes every second count by using a thick felt tip pen style which gives the short a feeling of being pulled straight from a newspaper.Along with the charming newspaper feel,Bergdahl also delivers a surprisingly early message about alcoholism,with the magical brew/drinks being shown to contain an evil spell.
