Summary: Disney Culture & Celebrations
Comment: This is a monument to the Disney resume as Donald Duck leads the show of South Of The Border entertainment, with gusto! Along with two powerful friends with equal gusto, this madcap adventure thru historical ventures is quite an animated masterpiece. DO NOT LOOK FOR A FAIRYTALE STORY, REPEAT, DO NOT LOOK FOR A STORY! This wild entertaining culture romp has all the elements of a jalapeno pinata gone berserk, and I for one, LOVE IT!!!! Viva Mexico, and wherever that flying sarape takes me, cause I wanna leave ASAP. Thanks to the Disney Studios for not abandoning updated formats and collections of their most treasured moments. My laptop loves ya!

Summary: Not a review -- a question
Comment: There were stories going around a few years back that the Disney Company had digitally removed Jose Carioca's cigar from his mouth and made other cuts and alteraltions equally offensive. I think THE THREE CABALLEROS is a great classic of the genre. . . a kind of Latin American FANTASIA that takes animation to the outermost limits of possibility -- but I want the movie in its original form, not in some altered, edited, Politically Correct modern dumbed-down version. There's nothing on the box or in the studio marketing that tells me which version I would be getting in this release. Can someone help me out? Should I Buy or Boycott? Thank you.

Summary: BORING and LAME (Kids will hate it)!!!
Comment: Purchased this movie for my six-year-old. The purchase was based on two merits: (1) She recognized the characters from the Disney ride at Epcot's Mexico Pavillion and (2)the DVD Cover lead her to believe this was a FULL LENGTH CARTOON movie with Donald and the two other birds.
The DVD was basically a non-animated,out-dated history lesson on South America (mainly Brazil) and Mexico with some lame animation/cartoons thrown in. After watching the entire DVD, my six-year-old simply said "that was boring". I agreed.

Summary: Classic Disney on DVD
Comment: For Disney historians and enthusiasts classic Disney films such as Sauludos Amigos and The Three Caballeros are a piece of Disney Feature Animation history. Both films were nominated for Academy Awards. However, to most of the younger generation The Three Caballeros is the center piece of the renovated Mexico pavilion attraction at Walt Disney World's Epcot. Now with the release The Classic Caballeros Collection: Saludos Amigos / The Three Caballeros that is about to change. For the first time both animated features are available together in the two DVD set. The Cinco de Mayo adventure begins as the Disney Studio team embarks on a journey to South America and Mexico with Donald, Goofy and Walt Disney himself in this animated and live-action collection.
The first piece in this adventure is Sauludos Amigos. In this Disney film Walt and his team of artists, musicians, writers and animators say "Adios!" to the U.S. to explore the heart and soul of Latin America. From the Bolivian Andes to the Argentine pampas, watch these four whimsical animated escapades while they travel to fun and exciting places. This enchanting international adventure earned three Academy Award nominations in 1943 including Best Musical Score, Best Sound and Best Original Song. Sauludos Amigos in divided into individual shorts highlighting different characteristics of South and Central America cultural. The first short features Donald Duck as a tourist at Lake Titicaca. Of course it wouldn't be a Donald Duck film without the customary troubles that follow this zany duck. The second short introduces us to a small plane name Pedro who must brave a thunder storm to deliver the mail in Santiago, Chile. After Pedro delivers the mail we venture to Argentina as the lovable Goofy portrays an American cowboy. Finally we set our sights on Brazil as Donald and his new friend Jose the parrot discover the culture and sounds of the region.
Interspersed with the animation shorts we go behind the scenes with Walt Disney and the animators as they crate this superb piece of celluloid (Disney also provides a South of The Border documentary in their backstage Section of the DVD)
We meet up with Donald's and his friends Joe Carioca and Panchito in The Three Caballeros. With lighthearted dance and lively music, this dazzling blend of live action and classic Disney animation is a celebration the whole family will enjoy! The film received two Academy Award nominations for Best Musical Score and Best Sound Recording.

The film opens with Donald receiving a huge birthday package from his Latin American friends. Things get interesting as Donald is introduced to the South American culture... During one of the final pieces of the film we are introduced to the films name sakes as Donald, Jose, and Panchito (a gun toting rooster) dance and sing in with the people of Mexico.
All in all this the Classic Caballeros collection sets out to do exactly what it is supposed to: entertain and introduce another generation to the history brilliant Disney Feature Animation.
