Review for 'The Three Caballeros'
As a Disney oddity, they don't get much odder than Three Caballeros. Donald Duck receives a birthday package from South America, and the film proceeds to unravel like some peyote-induced hallucination. It starts out reminiscent of other Disney films, where shorts are cobbled together, such as 'Make Mine Music' or 'Fun and Fancy Free.' The film has vignettes such as 'The Cold-Blooded Penguin' and 'The Flying Guachito.' After them it careens straight into part-travelogue, part-stream-of-consciousness animation. Not helping out much are Donald's 'friends,' Joe Carioca (a parrot) and Panchito (a rooster). They spend most of the rest of the film watching Donald chase skirt. That's right, Donald Duck is a wolf in this movie, and he chases every live-action señorita who bustles across the screen. Although some will say otherwise, Caballeros is for die-hard Disney, Donald, or psychedelia fans only. --Keith Simanton
Review for 'Saludos Amigos'
The first of two features Walt Disney made at the behest of the Office of Inter-American Affairs, Saludos Amigos consists of four cartoons linked by live-action travel footage. The very funny 'Lake Titicaca' finds Donald Duck high in the Bolivian Andes, struggling with a recalcitrant llama. 'Pedro,' the story of a little airplane replacing his father on a mail run across the Andes, is a variation on 'The Little Engine That Could.' 'El Gaucho Goofy' continues the popular 'How To' cartoon series that juxtaposes a deadpan narration with increasing physical mayhem. Here, Goofy demonstrates Pampas-style riding and the use of the bola. The jaunty parrot Jose Carioca makes his debut in 'Aquarela do Brasil.' Although largely eclipsed by the wilder The Three Caballeros (1944), Saludos Amigos retains its charm. Included in the supplemental material is South of the Border with Disney, which chronicles the Good Will Tour Walt and a group of his artists made in 1941. The 16mm footage has darkened, but this featurette offers rare glimpses of some of these artists at work, including Frank Thomas, Norm Ferguson, and Mary Blair, whose stylized drawings set the look for much of Saludos Amigos and Caballeros.--Charles Solomon.

Rating:  - Disney Culture & Celebrations
This is a monument to the Disney resume as Donald Duck leads the show of South Of The Border entertainment, with gusto! Along with two powerful friends with equal gusto, this madcap adventure thru historical ventures is quite an animated masterpiece. DO NOT LOOK FOR A FAIRYTALE STORY, REPEAT, DO NOT LOOK FOR A STORY! This wild entertaining culture romp has all the elements of a jalapeno pinata gone berserk, and I for one, LOVE IT!!!! Viva Mexico, and wherever that flying sarape takes me, cause I wanna leave ASAP. Thanks to the Disney Studios for not abandoning updated formats and collections of their most treasured moments. My laptop loves ya!
Rating:  - Not a review -- a question
There were stories going around a few years back that the Disney Company had digitally removed Jose Carioca's cigar from his mouth and made other cuts and alteraltions equally offensive. I think THE THREE CABALLEROS is a great classic of the genre. . . a kind of Latin American FANTASIA that takes animation to the outermost limits of possibility -- but I want the movie in its original form, not in some altered, edited, Politically Correct modern dumbed-down version. There's nothing on the box or in the studio marketing that tells me which version I would be getting in this release. Can someone help me out? Should I Buy or Boycott? Thank you.
Rating: - another great job
They've done a great job of restoring picture and sound. re-awaking it spirit of the movie with out having to change the original form.
Rating:  - BORING and LAME (Kids will hate it)!!!
Purchased this movie for my six-year-old. The purchase was based on two merits: (1) She recognized the characters from the Disney ride at Epcot's Mexico Pavillion and (2)the DVD Cover lead her to believe this was a FULL LENGTH CARTOON movie with Donald and the two other birds.
The DVD was basically a non-animated,out-dated history lesson on South America (mainly Brazil) and Mexico with some lame animation/cartoons thrown in. After watching the entire DVD, my six-year-old simply said "that was boring". I agreed.
Rating: - Classic Disney on DVD
For Disney historians and enthusiasts classic Disney films such as Sauludos Amigos and The Three Caballeros are a piece of Disney Feature Animation history. Both films were nominated for Academy Awards. However, to most of the younger generation The Three Caballeros is the center piece of the renovated Mexico pavilion attraction at Walt Disney World's Epcot. Now with the release The Classic Caballeros Collection: Saludos Amigos / The Three Caballeros that is about to change. For the first time both animated features are available together in the two DVD set. The Cinco de Mayo adventure begins as the Disney Studio team embarks on a journey to South America and Mexico with Donald, Goofy and Walt Disney himself in this animated and live-action collection.
The first piece in this adventure is Sauludos Amigos. In this Disney film Walt and his team of artists, musicians, writers and animators say "Adios!" to the U.S. to explore the heart and soul of Latin America. From the Bolivian Andes to the Argentine pampas, watch these four whimsical animated escapades while they travel to fun and exciting places. This enchanting international adventure earned three Academy Award nominations in 1943 including Best Musical Score, Best Sound and Best Original Song. Sauludos Amigos in divided into individual shorts highlighting different characteristics of South and Central America cultural. The first short features Donald Duck as a tourist at Lake Titicaca. Of course it wouldn't be a Donald Duck film without ... Read More
