Be Kind to 'Aminals'

Be Kind to 'Anminals' (1935)

*** 1/2 (out of 4)

Popeye and Olive Oyl are in the park feeding birds when they witness Bluto beating up on his over worked horse. This here is another high mark for the series, although I'm sure PETA members would throw a fit about the abuse the horse takes here even though the film is animated. There are plenty of laughs throughout the film including a terrific sequence where Olive is feeding birds with her feet. There's plenty of action as well as we see Bluto beating the horse before finally getting the tables turned. One strange thing I noticed here is that the voice of Popeye was a lot different than in previous shorts and I didn't care for the change too much.
