Review: Mickey Mouse Shorts ‘Tokyo Go ‘

Mickey visits Tokyo!

This week, Mickey’s in Japan and of course this means a lot of things. Crazy long lines at the transit stations, sumo wrestlers, and high-speeding trains with a smart ass grin. Eventually, a Sumo wrestler shows up to try and throw down but Mickey’s able to escape and return to his place of business.

I am just learning now that there are probably a whole bunch more of these shorts on the way and that’s going to be pretty integral in trying to increase awareness for Disney’s fabled leader. I like the idea now of different countries (although I still think the Paris setting was a disaster) because it truly helps establish Mickey as an international sensation one that can transcend languages and customs and do one thing for the biggest entertainment company in the world…make money. More shorts like this, and it’ll work.

8.5 out of 10
