Animated sequences featuring popular music.

1/4 (Bad).

I liked a couple of the cartoons, and elements of some others. But the good bits are short. It also features some of the all-time worst Disney cartoons I have ever seen.

Some of these cartoons -- in particular the excellent "Pecos Bill" -- are quite entertaining, and others have pleasant shades of "Fantasia". But others are frightfully dull, as is the live action narration segment preceding "Pecos Bill". And unlike some of the earlier package films Disney made, this one makes no effort at joining it together with a frame narrative or thematic throughline.

It would seem to me that the main quality of "The Three Caballeros" is making "Saludos Amigos" look a lot better. It starts out pretty great, with an actually animated framing that actually has some measure of plot (it's Donald's birthday and he's been sent gifts from his Latin-American friends), and a quite solid cartoon of Pablo the Penguin being shown. Then it starts slowly but surely deteriorating, and by the film's halfway point, it's just endless music numbers with either no story at all, or one single gag (usually Donald drooling over various girls) dragged out for way, way too long. There are still some minor decent occurrences to be found in there, like the titular song number, but they get fewer and fewer as the film goes on. Finally, the last third of the film is (on purpose) an ever-increasingly nightmarish contentless soup of surrealist animation. Maybe some of it has some artistic merit, but as it has no plot or story relevance, it gets frightfully dull for me very quickly. And I suspect unless you absolutely love stuff like the final few frames of "Alice in Wonderland" or the Pink Elephant Parade in "Dumbo" and wish there was a lot more of this, but done centred around Donald Duck pining for a singing live action woman, you would think the same.
All in all, the film is an amorphous mess despite the (compared to its immediate predecessor) stronger premise and frame story it started out with, and for a compilation movie, it actually only ever shows a single straight-up self-sufficient cartoon (Pablo, in the film's first ten minutes). The rest of just slow-paced Latin-American sightseeing to music, or Donald dancing with or running after live action girls.

Donald Duck learns about Mexico and South America, and suffers a libido-induced psychotic breakdown.

What were the folks at Disney smoking? Did they even bother storyboarding this? And didn't someone sober have to approve it?
