Bee on Guard (1951)
5/10
This one stung a little.
31 May 2017
From the title of this cartoon short, you would know immediately what the program was going to consist - a fight between Donald and the bees, with Donald possibly getting stung a few times. Here, Donald wants to steal some honey from the bees' lair in a tree trunk and, therefore, disguises himself as the insect himself and distracts the guard while he loads up the honey into two buckets.

The animation is great as usual and the bees' army is quite the nice special effect. However, the overall cartoon lacks the humor and slapstick comedy you've come to expect in Donald cartoons. While Donald did get his fair share of mishap in the cartoon, he at least ended up keeping the honey he funneled from the bees.
