Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

This is a Disney short starring Donald and Goofy, who were on a tour in the Sahara Desert. After their car runs out of gas, they walk through the desert in search of much needed water, but instead, they run into mirages. From Goofy seeing a soda mountain to Donald kissing what appears to be an iceberg image, it's pure entertainment as you see them brave the heat in their funny ways. It makes you want to drink some water yourself as well.Goofy's little jingle he whistles throughout the short was catchy, and Donald's fiery, frustrated temper as he tries to save the last drop of water from the canteen was hilarious. Great Disney short! Grade A

That is not to say that Crazy with the Heat is bad. It is actually pretty good, just that considering it was Donald and Goofy it could and should have been much more. Apart from suffering from Goofy's mistakes and being easily frustrated, Donald isn't really given all that much to do, or at least much that is funny. The ending is also far too abrupt, that I do agree with, but the biggest problem was that while the idea was absolutely great and gave some inspired visual touches and zippy pacing, the constant switching from mirage to reality got very confusing and eventually rather weird after a while. However Crazy with the Heat is animated beautifully especially in the vibrant colours. The music is energetic and characterful, the orchestration also continues to be dynamic and truly pleasant to the ears. The gags are amusing at least, though the confusion of the story gets in the way I feel from them being more than that. Goofy has the best moments, with the part with the soda fountain the standpoint. Goofy is just delightful, and while Donald has been utilised far better than here just seeing him is good enough. The voice work is great. All in all, worth watching but rather bizarre. 7/10 Bethany Cox

A Walt Disney DONALD AND GOOFY Cartoon.While driving their jalopy through the Sahara, the two pals get lost, become very thirsty and go CRAZY WITH THE HEAT.This very funny little film features the inspired pairing of The Duck & The Goof, Donald's rising exasperation at Goofy's bumbling sparking much of the enjoyment. Clarence "Ducky" Nash gives voice to Donald; Paul Frees does the honors for the proprietor of the Oasis Soda Fountain.Walt Disney (1901-1966) was always intrigued by drawings. As a lad in Marceline, Missouri, he sketched farm animals on scraps of paper; later, as an ambulance driver in France during the First World War, he drew figures on the sides of his vehicle. Back in Kansas City, along with artist Ub Iwerks, Walt developed a primitive animation studio that provided animated commercials and tiny cartoons for the local movie theaters. Always the innovator, his ALICE IN CARTOONLAND series broke ground in placing a live figure in a cartoon universe. Business reversals sent Disney & Iwerks to Hollywood in 1923, where Walt's older brother Roy became his lifelong business manager & counselor. When a mildly successful series with Oswald The Lucky Rabbit was snatched away by the distributor, the character of Mickey Mouse sprung into Walt's imagination, ensuring Disney's immortality. The happy arrival of sound technology made Mickey's screen debut, STEAMBOAT WILLIE (1928), a tremendous audience success with its use of synchronized music. The SILLY SYMPHONIES soon appeared, and Walt's growing crew of marvelously talented animators were quickly conquering new territory with full color, illusions of depth and radical advancements in personality development, an arena in which Walt's genius was unbeatable. Mickey's feisty, naughty behavior had captured millions of fans, but he was soon to be joined by other animated companions: temperamental Donald Duck, intellectually-challenged Goofy and energetic Pluto. All this was in preparation for Walt's grandest dream - feature length animated films. Against a blizzard of doomsayers, Walt persevered and over the next decades delighted children of all ages with the adventures of Snow White, Pinocchio, Dumbo, Bambi & Peter Pan. Walt never forgot that his fortunes were all started by a mouse, or that simplicity of message and lots of hard work always pay off.

In 'Crazy with the Heat," Donald Duck and Goofy run out of gas while driving through the desert. While searching for gas they begin to hallucinate. Most of the gags are pretty average, but the sequence in which Goofy imagines a soda shop in the middle of the desert is a standout. Unfortunately, Donald isn't given as much to work with and the ending is way too abrupt.
