Featured review
Scrooge's clone trouble
When younger watching animation, there was so much to like about it, not only because of so many good qualities but also how it helped me feel better during bad times. Whereas as an adult, where my love for animation was even stronger, with more knowledge was garnered of behind the scenes and of the different studios, animation styles and those involved and more components were noticed through adult eyes as well.
'Ducktales' was a personal favourite growing up, and actually like it even more. That is very high praise when some past favourites have not held up as well. To me, 'Ducktales' is funnier, even more entertaining today, finding even more to like and from getting much more the references, humour and dialogue, not admittedly always the case when younger. That has been the case with many animated shows re-visited recently, with prime examples being 'Animaniacs', 'Pinky and the Brain' and 'Tiny Toon Adventures'.
"Send in the Clones" is a fine episode with so much to enjoy, though not one of my favourites of the show.
The animation is lively and colourful, though with an occasional lack of smoothness in the drawing in busier moments. The music again shines, dynamic, beautifully orchestrated, never jarring with the action and full of energy. Disney had many theme songs that were difficult to resist and were very catchy to the extent one doesn't forget them, and that for 'Ducktales' to me was one of the best.
As one expects, the writing has wit and is very smart. A good deal of funny moments here, including one of Burger's best ever moments when he squeals upon Magica, and a nice job is done with the domestic aspect/the importance of family and Scrooge's moral dilemma during the climax. A climax that is a thrilling way to cap a story that compels all the way through.
Characters drive "Send in the Clones" beautifully. Scrooge is always interesting and it has always been great that 'Ducktales' excels so well in providing distinct personalities for Huey, Duey and Louie that it's easier to tell them apart than when partnered with Donald previously. But it's the villains that steal the show, the Beagle Boys as ever are enormous fun to watch (especially Burger) and Magica has always been one of my favourite recurring 'Ducktales' characters. Their crossover chemistry is rich in tension and entertainment value, even if an opportunity was missed in providing more contrast between them. The voice acting is very good, headed by June Foray.
In conclusion, fine episode. 9/10 Bethany Cox
