They don't make 'em like they used to...thank God!
While I thoroughly hated "Little Annie Rooney" and any cartoon like it, I at least gave it a three because it did feature some amazing animation for 1931. The film had an amazing 3-D look, as the camera moved about in a manner I've never seen in other films--even other Fleischer Brothers films. It looked as if the camera was in a real cartoon world. Sadly, however, despite eye-popping visuals, the rest of the cartoon is just dreadful--the sort of cartoon that is extremely tedious and dated. There really isn't much plot--just LOTS of cute characters and TONS of singing. The Fleischers made quite a few singing cartoons in the 1930s--ones with the bouncing ball that encouraged the audience to sing along with the lyrics. I have no idea if folks ever did sing along with these crappy cartoons in the theaters--but if they had, then the films would have been 1000 times worse!! Saccharine and bland--this film is incredibly dated and tedious.
