Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

"Mr. Mouse Takes a Trip" is a 7.5-minute cartoon from 1940, so this one is over 75 years old and was released during the early stages of World War II already and looking at it, you will probably see how old it is because it really looks this way too. The title gives away that this is a Disney production of course and Walt himself is lending Mickey his voice here. The rest of the cast and crew also worked on many other Disney films, some classics as well. But back to this one here: The story is basically that Mickey is not allowed by the conductor brute to take Pluto on the train, but the two belong together, so Mickey hides his dog in the suitcase. When the conductor finds out (and I am glad he does because stupid main antagonists) suck, a real cat-and-mouse (and dog) chase starts through the entire train and back where Mickey manages repeatedly through the help of costumes to get away from his follower. But he is only successful temporarily. The ending was still good though and helped me in forgetting my criticism that honestly this one single story was not enough even for under 8 minutes. All in all, it is a close call, but I think the positive is more frequent than the negative here and that's why I give out a positive recommendation to cartoon lovers. Everybody else can maybe skip it though.

. . . how folks such as Bonnie Parker, Clyde Barrow, Lee Harvey Oswald, Ted Bundy, John "Il Duce" Wayne, John Wayne Bobbitt, John Wayne Gacy, and Donald Trump nurtured such a strong disrespect for Authority. One need look no further than Disney Cartoons. Starting with "Steamboat Willie" in the 1920s, these subversive vehicles of insidious Mass Corruption have taught America's Young & Impressionable Minds the "Joys" of Anarchy. Consider MR. MOUSE TAKES A TRIP, for instance. It pictures Anti-Hero Mickey as a Nihilistic Scoff-Law, starting out his Crime Career with sadistic pet abuse (no doubt inspiring Jeffrey Dahmer and so many other Disney Copycat Serial Killers). Arch-Fiend\Founder Walt follows this up by having his diminutive rat "star" conduct a primer on pathological prevarication, no doubt lapped up during his Reform School Cartoon Night by a young White House Squatter Trump. This vermin Mickey Mouse then launches upon a series of assaults against beleaguered law enforcement personnel, interrupted only by his own sudden whim to impersonate the police. When parents of Today's school shooters ask themselves, "Where did we go wrong?!" there's doubtless a depraved Disney Toon or two at the root of their Problem Child!

This is a funny Mickey Mouse cartoon on the run, literally, where he takes a train from Burbank to Pomona. The conductor, Pete, won't let him Pluto on as no pets are allowed, so Mickey hides him in his suitcase. What results is a journey of hiding from Pete and, later, a hilarious cat and mouse game.It's funny stuff from start to finish, with poor Mickey being terrified of Pete to Pluto trying to disguise himself in human's clothes to escape the burly and intimidating conductor. I remembered this cartoon fondly from my childhood; the thought of Pluto having his suitcase full of dog bones was pretty neat.It's a neat one featuring Mickey and Pluto - adults and kids will enjoy!

Mickey is shown getting ready to board a train. However, he's told that he cannot take the dog aboard, so he spends much of the cartoon trying to sneak the mutt on the train. Unfortunately, Pluto barks and makes a nuisance of himself and the conductor, Pete, is always one step away from discovering the animal. But, again and again, Mickey and Pluto manage to avoid his grasp. In the end, they are caught AND Pete manages to catch them.All in all, a pleasant but rather unremarkable Mickey short. Like all shorts from the late 1930s, the animation is great (with wonderful colors and lovely details that practically scream 'quality') and the story brisk and enjoyable.
