Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

John T. Ryan MADE DURING THE period when Donald Duck was arguably riding the highest crest of popularity and box office $ucce$$e$, this short is adequate in maintaining the roll. It does seem to be a sort of "marking time" installment; being built around what surely is a rather limited storyline, one joke approach and very limited supporting cast.OUR STORY OPENS at the "Bar-None" Dude Ranch as the special bus delivers yet another carload of "city slickers"; all of which are cookie cutter cuties of the feminine persuasion. All are endowed with that Disney special brand of charm and pulchritude; all except for one temperamental, urban bound duck.THE STORY HAS Don being the last one to disembark from the bus and the guy who has to settle for the "leftover" steed. The rent-a-mount has already displayed a keen desire to sit out the obligatory trip around the trail. His attitude is viewed in stark contrast to the other horses; who are quite demonstrative in making their enthusiasm immediately obvious.IN THE CASE of our own DD, he manages to antagonize the horse even further, even before attempting to mount the reluctant equine. Rather than being all decked out in dude fashion, dime store cowboy and "B" Western Movie fashion, Donald appears on the scene sporting an English style riding outfit and a short stirrup English Fox Hunt saddle. Talley ho! THE LAST PORTION of the cartoon is constructed around the horse's efforts to outsmart Mr. Duck and the horse's inclusion of a fiercely wild bull into the conflict; leading to Don's being made into a bull rider while riding off into the closing credits.WHILE NOT ONE of the best of the Disney Donald Duck series, it is nonetheless satisfying to the funny-bone and did us the service of exploring just what would be the Duck's methods of dealing with that ever-popular and growing American establishment of the Dude Ranch.

OllieSuave-007 Donald Duck visits a dude ranch and attempts to ride on a horse who had just seen all the other horses been picked by some beautiful women.Donald gets the run-around and bad vibes from the horse in this cartoon, making failed attempts to get the animal to let Donald saddle him up. It's funny to see Donald's priceless expressions of frustration and desertion, and in the part where he mimics a woman's voice in coerce the horse.The horse on the other hand is pretty irritating as he rejects poor Donald. The facial expressions it makes are annoying. But, I guess it's all in good fun to watch as Donald almost always get stuck with all the bad luck.Grade B

TheLittleSongbird Dude Duck is not my favourite of Donald Duck's cartoons, or quite one of my favourites. But it is fun and entertaining, with beautiful animation, vibrant colours and fluid backgrounds are both on sight here, and energetic scoring with the opening bars(excluding the catchy title song) almost reminiscent of the part of the William Tell overture where it sounds like dawn has arrived. Duke Duck is very funny too, I have been more imaginatively and crisply timed Donald Duck cartoons, but I did love Donald's facial expression as he walks up to the horses and the last minute or so is very amusing, but for me the best part was when Rover Boy was pretending to be a cow. The story is routine but still maintained my interest, and both characters are just great, I just wish endearing Rover Boy was in more cartoons and Donald as always shines with his charm and temperament. Clarence Nash is as bravura as ever as the voice of Donald. In conclusion, a fun, entertaining cartoon. 9/10 Bethany Cox

Spleen Perhaps not among the very best Donald Duck cartoons (although, like all of Jack Hannah's efforts, it has some very funny moments), at least one thing about it is outstanding: when Donald approaches the horses, innocent, self-satisfied, looking like a prize pillock, he is wearing what is probably THE most hilarious facial expression of his entire career. The horses clearly think so, too.
