The Rematch from: The Tortoise and the Hare 1935 Link https://averagemansreviews2017.blogspot.com/2020/10/the-tortoise-and-hare-1935-by.html but this time things will be settled in a boxing ring so in one corner we have Champion Max Hare [voice by Ned Norton] and in the other we have Toby Tortoise [Eddie Holden] and we also have the three Girl Bunnies back from the previous project as well [voice by Alyce Ardell,Marcellite Garner and Leone Le Doux; just to cover my back Girl Bunny would be their character names.]

This project goes on for roughly 7 minutes the storyline and the pacing is something safe and reliable, but it very much is a template of its predecessor obviously the change of sports from running to boxing brings a whole new comedy potential [but what I mean is it does it in the same tone] from the perspective of character developments, action and comedy.

I mean Max Hare is still so very arrogant, I mean if you want to go that way fair enough, but there are absolutely no signs of growth or learning from his previous encounter with Toby Tortoise, you know give me a sign that he has learnt something but no that is not the case here. So as I have already made reference to we have him not taking this boxing match at all seriously by using his speed to quickly get around his opponent and taking the time to laugh at his opponent with three girl bunnies or talking to the emergency service bunnies with him taking his paws out of his boxing gloves whilst his boxing gloves are still punching to tell them not now and paws/arms gesture of calling it/them off then going back to boxing and then going back to the three girl bunnies.

But in the interest of fairness and balance Toby Tortoise is a bit weird as all these animals seem to like this high society bird character Jenny Wren [voice by Martha Wentworth] these two characters come in contact in the real world when Toby Tortoise lands on her lap and she says "I like a guy that takes his time" with him replying "You do. Gee." With him getting up and giving off the attitude of he is really going to try and win now as it implies if he win this fight at the very least he might get more of her attention or more he might have sexual intercourse with her or a relationship, so he gets back in the ring. [You know this short project is meant for kids?; There is sexual undertone here as well just in case you were wondering if I was reaching here she is seductive character in the way that she speaks and I am smart enough to know this was a very different world back then.]

But that isn't the weird part when Toby Tortoise gets knocked down we see what is thought processes and he has a Sultan or a wealthy individual from this part of the world being served or/and dancers of Jenny Wren this question of “How you doing Toby-Woby?”

This film receives: 2/10, this film is poor; well there is no character developments as it relates to Max Hare as I have already referenced and is the predecessor has/had supremely much better content of action and comedy as it relates to a variety and I may as well add this again this entire Toby and Jennifer thing is weird, I have an open mind but this is just weird and yes we never find out if anything happens between these two characters.
