Drip-Along Daffy Audience Reviews

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Edgar Allan Pooh . . . is a precious birthright gift, NOT to be taken lightly or polluted by TV personalities desperately tackling foreign tongue-twisters with spraying spittle in their misguided Crusade to be "Politically Correct," we learn again in this ahead-of-its-time animated short from the 1950s, DRIP-ALONG DAFFY. About 5:46 into this 7:20-minute-long cartoon, Sheriff Daffy Duck gives outlaw Nasty Canasta an ultimatum beginning, "Listen, hombre, if you're not out of town by sundown . . . !" Only Daffy pronounces the second (as subtitled) word here to rhyme with "Bomber," NOT the PC "Bombay." Though those toothy TV jackals would content themselves to use the latter enunciation, Daffy's straight-talking from the hip translates this H-Word of dubious origin into proper Americanese. Daffy's challenge leads to Canasta's downfall, presaged by a series of camera angle viewpoints later stolen Carte Blanche by the director of Gary Cooper's definitive American Western, HIGH NOON. Today's parents would be well-advised to inoculate their kids with Classic Looney Tunes, before America gets just as contaminated as France.
utgard14 Hilarious western parody directed by Chuck Jones and starring Daffy Duck as a "western type hero" and Porky as his "comedy relief" sidekick. The duo try to bring law to a lawless town which doesn't sit well with notorious outlaw Nasty Canasta. Porky sings an amusing song called "The Flower of Gower Gulch." So many funny parts of this one. Love all the signs for the people and places. The horse wearing a mask and holding up the blacksmith for horseshoes may be the most priceless gag I've seen all year. Some very funny dialogue from Daffy. Great voice work from Mel Blanc. Lively music from Carl Stalling. The animation is excellent with nice colors and well-drawn characters, backgrounds, and action. It's a real classic; one of my favorite Daffy & Porky shorts.
Mightyzebra With an unmistakable Western theme, this Daffy Duck short is almost bursting with gags, some of them only all right, but most of them are very good! With the characters good, the plot good, the setting good and the jokes good - how else could this Daffy Duck episode live up to a good standard. Oh yes - why not the theme and the hero!? This episode introduces Daffy Duck as a "Western Type Hero" and Porky as a "Comedy Relief". Then a "Lawless Western Town" is introduced and as we see the town-folk are not doing well at all. Just when all hope seems lost, Daffy Duck shows up on his trusty steed with his sheriff star badge and he gallops to the rescue! He and Porky have got a very funny and surprising adventure ahead of them.Good for Daffy Duck fans interested in the little black duck's modern episodes and for people who like funny western cartoon shorts, enjoy "Drip-Along Daffy"! :-)
Akbar Shahzad (rapt0r_claw-1) Followed-up by My Little Duckaroo, Drip-Along Daffy is one of my favorite cartoons. Daffy is the star, playing a Western-type hero who becomes sheriff of a town in disarray, accompanied by his one-man fanclub, comedy relief in Porky Pig. The antagonist is Nasty Canasta, the core of all the trouble. So if our inept hero can rid the town of Canasta in a one-on-one shootout, all the problems will be solved. With Daffy responsible for the fate of the town, the prospect seems bleak, doesn't it? The animation is excellent. Jones' simple use of subtle expressions is at its glorious best here. Canasta can't really be called a character since he's just a one-dimensional prop, part of the background for Daffy and the show-stealing Porky. For any fan of the greedy, overly confident Daffy, a must-see.
