This is the next to last theatrical Gerald McBoing Boing short done by UPA, with this being the third of the four that the studio produced. It's a cute, clever cartoon, but the novelty factor is beginning to wear off and there's not enough other solid material to sustain extending the series. It's brought to a resolution of sorts here, as Gerald and his parents turn to science and technology for a communication breakthrough. Enjoyable and with enough moments to make it worth watching, even though it pales in comparison to the first one, Gerald McBoing Boing. There was also a television series that featured the character, as well as other material done specifically for television. Well worth watching. Recommended.
