Superman versus robots

Warning: Spoilers
"The Mechanical Monsters" is a 9-minute cartoon that was made during World War II like all the other ones from the franchise. In here, Suoerman is up against an evil engineer (very forgettable villain) who throws an army of fire-spilling mechanical monsters (or robots in short) at out hero. I found it an underwhelming watch. It uses the same formula like all these. Superman seems in danger occasionally, but in the end he prevails of course and Lois, who gets kidnapped again, owes it all to him. Too generic for my taste and there are many better American cartoons from the 1940s. Even at such a small runtime, I felt it dragged a lot and I do not recommend the watch. I hope the next ones turn out better.
