Reviews and Comments

From RareSox :

This ain't Milton, chief It's literally Mickey in upstate New York. Anywho, Van Beuren cartoons aren't remembered very fondly, either because they seem obscured compared to other cartoons in the Golden age of Animation. The only thing people know them for is how James Tyer got his start a the studio, the peak-sickening cutesy cartoons in their Rainbow Parade series, and for blatantly ripping off Mickey Mouse. Circus Capers just so happens to contain the latter. The animation also looks very draft compared to everything else produced at the time, and there isn't really a plot to speak of. You're just better off watching Carnival Capers, an actual Mickey Mouse short, and a far better one, at that. 2/10.
