Review Time

Warning/Disclaimer: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/transformation/animal feeding. Disclaimer if anyone should go searching for this I will not be held responsible; this will make much more sense later on in this Review/Blog

Storyline: it is good, the pacing is also is generally speaking good as well, but at some point it seems to go off the boil for a small amount of time; I don't know what it is because there is things progressing nicely; okay it goes into a little bit of a lull but I can't put my finger on it; it's like a glitch you don't know where it comes from a you don't know where it has gone; but it happens and we never find out what happens to this individual; I should point out it is self-explanatory or whilst I'm on the subject; Dijon as he is getting chased down the road from Mr. McDuck

Action/Art/Comedy: now in at one point or number we have these three components all working together or in different pairs or individually.

All together; we have Mr. Scrooge McDuck, Launchpad, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby/Russi Taylor and Dijon/Libertini inside this Pyramid looking for Collie Baba's treasure, which not too surprisingly has booby-traps; Dijon [Guide/Thief/Undercover Spy & sniffling servant to Merlock/Lloyd.] Dijon deliberately sets off this booby-trap with his big toe so our group can hopefully avoid the trap [this was the general idea, but no one had a clue of what the booby-trap would be,] so these large cogs come out of these secret departments including one directly onto Dijon's head as it drops into the scene from above with it breaking into two slices one on either side of Dijon with Dijon looking and moving as if that really hurt; at the same time with a dazed swaying [with this question "Is there a Doctor in the Pyramid?" and then falling down.

Action/Art; in short Mr. McDuck jumps out of this plane with a parachute on him to land on top of this building’s roof, but even before he can take take a second to take off his parachute and get organized to carry on with the rest of his part of the mission a gust of wind catches his parachute; it is a good thing he has his cane on him so he can stop from getting into furthermore trouble so he pulls himself up using his cane on the side of this building; known as a Money Bin with [basically this is Mr. McDuck's place of business; but much, much, so much more importantly this is where he keeps his vault with a lot of his riches inside, so when he feels like it he can go and dive in from this diving board and swim around.

Which Family Guy 1999 [Season 10,] in the First Episode of this Season "Lottery Fever" they show you the possible outcome if you were to attempt this in real-life. This scene is graphic and once again Disclaimer: if anyone should go looking for it I will not be held responsible.

Art; I know as it relates to this project the Art is an fundamental component based on the grounds this project is 100% animated, but from a general sense this project is very smooth, eye-catching and easy to settle down with as there is consistently something to see and experience like; just off the top of my head Launchpad is flying this plane [as the viewers are placed from the perspective of underneath this plane with the things you expect to see from this perspective; a wing and a propeller going around, but more specifically; the viewers see from this perspective; this exploration site which Mr. McDuck has funded or another example; these massive ice cream scoops and other components of an ice cream sundae falling from the sky and finally seeing the Earth from a very high up perspective [outside of the Earth.]

Characters/Performances: including the on-screen chemistry likewise all three of these components are very easy to settle down with, because these characters are voiced by their original voices from the 1987-1990 animated TV program of DuckTales, which translates as easily recognizable and consequently instantaneously rememberable. Just to mention some names Mr. Scrooge McDuck/Alan Young, Launchpad/Terence McGovern, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby/Russi Taylor [yes she voices all four of these characters,] to all that were a main or recurring character or additional voices; legendary work was achieved here and for this film title Merlock/Christopher Lloyd and Genie/Gene/Rip Taylor.

This film receives: 6/10, this film is good; this is one of those projects that is designed for family viewing as it only goes on for roughly 74 minutes; you know those lazy Sunday afternoons and you want to get the kids, you and may be your partner to all sit down together for a relatively short period of time; this project will fulfil that purpose and on a quick side note this has a Nomination to its name Young Artist Awards 1991; Most Entertaining Family Youth Motion Picture - Animation.
