It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

I must confess that first time that I saw this short (Included in the "Masters of Russian Animation" collection, I didn't understand it, but I found the animation style to be pleasant, despite the apparently simplistic story (Where a man puts all the things from his apartment into one enormous closed and starts living here) Later, I discovered that this short actually was intended of a satire of the Soviet life of the time in which it was made, being considered by the film censors as a critique of mediocrity.For me, this film works very well as a subtle satire of the people that constantly tries to ignore the bad aspects of reality, creating a world of escapism and comfort in order to keep their happiness and pleasure. And in that way, this is actually a very powerful and exquisite allegory.
