Featured review
Disney cartoon about American folk hero John Henry, a former slave who worked on a railroad driving spikes into the rails. When a steam drill threatens to replace the workers, John Henry challenges that he can do a better job than the machine. An enjoyable cartoon that was originally released on a direct-to-video anthology of Disney shorts about American legends. Most of them were older cartoons like Paul Bunyan and The Brave Engineer. It's since been released again as part of a collection of modern Disney shorts. The voice work and music are good. The animation is decent, but not a style I particularly like. The skies are full of lines, for example, and I just found that unattractive. Anyway, it's a nice cartoon that's not quite as polished as the classics it was originally released with but it's far from an embarrassment.
