ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . the hapless grunt discovers that you cannot beat Hitler with musical spoons. (Even a Chamber Orchestra will not do the trick, as anyone who's seen one of those Death Camp Porn Movies will realize.) Like the Fourth Plane on 9-11, Snafu takes dead aim on the U.S. Capitol Dome, but his Technical Fairy Godfather First Class says, "Let's Roll!" and puts a stop to the Mayhem. (This is in sharp contrast to a Trumplestiltskin-run America, where Trumpenstein would simply encourage a would-be Dome-Shattering Snafu to "Have at it!"--as he's suggested dropping Bowe Bergdahl riding a bomb Slim Pickens-style on Afghanistan--and we can ALL languish UNDER THE DOME if the Trumpster takes on the role of "Big Jim" and moves into 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Jan. 20, 2017.) This SNAFUPERMAN animated short shown to most incoming members of the Army Air Corps (as the U.S. Air Force was known during World War Two) also is infamous for inspiring the Real Life last words of notables such as designated future U.S. President Joseph Kennedy, Jr. and band leader Glenn Miller, who echoed Snafu's exclamation as their Time Ran Out: "Messerschmitts--a whole Mess of Messerschmitts!"

TheLittleSongbird Snafuperman is a good-looking and amusing cartoon, but as far as Private Snafu cartoons go I do prefer The Goldbrick(apart from the Japanese Goldbrick character). The story does feel a little thin even for a cartoon so short a length and the point about the concept not been particularly inspiring or interesting is understandable and to me that is also the reason. Snafuperman does put its moral across well enough, if on the forceful side. It's also one of the tamest Snafu cartoons, after seeing parts of The Goldbrick and especially The Home Front- though you may argue that The Home Front is a bit heavy on the daring stuff-, not that it's a problem as such but with not as interesting a subject matter and compared to those two it does feel a tad bland. Snafuperman is very well-animated though with fluid character designs, detailed and not sparse backgrounds and lively colours/shadings. Carl Stalling always did write outstanding music for the many cartoons he scored for and Snafuperman is not an exception, the orchestration is very lush and the pacing is characteristically lively. The instructional parts of the cartoon may not as come across as effectively as it could have done but the humour still shines visually and verbally, the beginning is priceless and the dialogue is appropriately as sharp as a razor and delivered with zany zest by Mel Blanc(one of the most talented, versatile and consistent voice actors there ever was). Snafu is still endearing but is very funny in how inept he is at everything, which provides much of the laughs in his cartoons. All in all, amusing and pretty good but not one of the best Private Snafu cartoons in my humble opinion. 7/10 Bethany Cox

Lee Eisenberg This time, Pvt. Snafu gets tired of reading manuals ("Don't conk the enemy over the head with a book! Pump 'im full of lead!"), and gets to be Superman. His immediate conviction of infallibility and omnipotence may be a metaphor for any superpower's wartime elephantiasis; he embodies the belligerent all-brawn-and-no-brain mentality that takes over. Certainly in "Snafuperman", Snafu learns the hard way that it pays to read the manuals. Of course, he has help from voice artist Mel Blanc and director Frank Tashlin. Worth seeing.As for that line "Messerschmitts! A whole mess of Messerschmitts!", that line also appeared in the Daffy Duck vehicle "Daffy - The Commando", in which Daffy ribs a Nazi Kommandant.

ccthemovieman-1 The message in this "cartoon," another in the series of instructional videos to folks during World War II is "read your manuals." Obviously, this one is geared strictly for the military men. Others were for both military and civilians during the tension-filled years of World War IIThe dumb guy in the story thinks he can be a military superman without doing his homework. For example, the idiot was going to bomb Washington by mistake, thinking it was Berlin. Well, you get the message.This cartoon had a little more humor to it, at least visually, than the other two I saw in this series. Seeing "Snafuperman" doing the backstroke while flying in the air was pretty good, along with a few other sight gags.Note: I was shocked to hear a guy yell, "How the hell do you expect...." The word "hell" doesn't offend me, but hearing that in a 1944 cartoon?? What gives? Was the audio redone on this?
