Film ThreatAlan NgJun 7, 2022
It’s a fitting tribute to Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse and makes you long for a time when storytelling was someone just telling a story. Read full review

It’s still an eye-opener, especially for the casual fan who hasn’t devoured all the many books on Early Disney as a subject and Mickey as a character, a corporate brand and a cultural touchstone. Read full review

Malmberg’s documentary is quick to gloss over rough patches in both Mickey and Disney’s shared histories. Read full review
