This is quite a fun, action-packed, cartoon that sees "Donald Duck" taking his camper van to a remote, rustic, location for some well earned rest. The fly in his ointment are the local chipmunks. They see his visit as an ideal opportunity for some mischief making and so what now ensues is some easy to watch slapstick with "Chip" and "Dale" battling - ebb and flow - with their feathered foe. "Donald" was probably my favourite of the original Disney characters. He had personality, a temper, and those wonderfully expressive eyes and they work well here as he combats with his pesky persecutors. The humour is gently engaging and the animation first rate. Proof that you can pack quite a lot into six minutes and well worth a quick gander (or is that a goose?).
