Except for the ending (which is really just a cop out, and goes against the first six wonderfully satirical minutes), it's a propaganda masterpiece -- daring, well-written, and above all legitimately funny.

Showing signs of the Second World War mood it was created in, it does suffer as an entertaining piece of animation instead of a fascinating document. Despite these problems, it is a surreal mocking of Nazism which is made even better by the inspired title song by Spike Jones and the City Clickers.

How isn't this hilarious?

Hell yeah.

An important work. Disney's depiction of life under Hitler is if anything too generous, given what we know now, but this cartoon with a message is a great piece of wartime satire. Donald's frustrated "everyduck" personality is perfectly utilized, and Spike Jones and the City Clickers are as subversive as ever.

Except for the ending.

I wish cartoons like this would be made about current events nowadays.

It's brilliant, but I would prefer if it had like... 1 minute less.

Man was fascist Europe hilarious or what? I didn't like this short as much as I thought I would, I just really hate Donald Duck. got nothing against nazis though

Incredible animation makes this effective propaganda, though the racism towards the Chinese smarts a little today.

Son of its time, but still bloody hilarious. I usually don't like the WW2 propagandistic cartoons, but this one is still the honourable exception. I could watch it again and again, and still get more laughs, in the nutzi band, the scenes at the factory or Donald's house. My only problem comes from the ending, which is probably too discursive and naive for what the story had brought till then. Other than that, really great, amazingly written animated classic.

"DDINL" (or "DFF") is quite a funny film (and I simply adore Donald's voice), but remains a war propaganda in favor of the American nation. After a nightmare in Germany's hands, Donald wakes up in his house, wearing his U.S.-flag pajamas and with a cute shiny little Statue-of-Liberty statuette on his desk. Viva America.

Surreal and hilarious. One of many banned animated shorts produced during WW2. Check it out for racial stereotypes and Donald Duck saluting a picture of Hitler while wearing a Nazi uniform.

For a propaganda piece it is a masterpiece but it is still shitty in all other regards.

This controversial animation, won the 1942 Academy Award for Animated Short Film.

Haha, stupid Nazis. Actually, it's pretty enjoyable for a propaganda piece, but it's still a propaganda piece and that ending, uhh.

There really isn't much to this except for Nazis.

A bit too American. But overall a good idea.

It was my impression that Walt Disney was actually a nazi sympathizer, so this excellent piece of anti-Hitler propaganda doesn't really make sense in that aspect. However, it's fascinating either way.

fuck yeah god bless america!
