Humpty Dumpty (1935)
3/10
Not What It's 'Cracked' Up To Be
1 May 2008
This was a weak effort, to be honest. It started out promising, with Humpty Dumpty Jr., yes, the famous egg's kid.

Dumpty falls from the ledge, gets caught by mother and gets a lecture on not being dumb like his father who wound up falling "and getting cracked." What we wind up with in this story is "Junior" falling for a female egg and having to fight off "the bad egg" to get her.

It drags on a bit too much with a predictable ending. In the middle and at the end we get a song about "spooning." Overall, this wasn't one of the better efforts in the collection of a DVD called "Cartoons That Time Forget: The UB Iwerks Collection Vol. 1."
