Pluskylang Great Film overall

Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

TheLittleSongbird Despite Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and his cartoons being popular and well received at the time, they have been vastly overshadowed over time by succeeding Disney characters (like Mickey, Donald and Goofy) and those from Looney Tunes. It is a shame as, while not cartoon masterpieces, they are fascinating for anybody wanting to see what very old animation looked like and what Disney animation was like before Mickey arrived on the scene.After the still pretty good 'Trolley Troubles', the third Oswald cartoon (his debuting cartoon 'Poor Papa' being very much rare) is an improvement, it's crazier, wittier, more inspired and takes more risks. Sure the story is still very limited structurally and Oswald's girlfriend is pretty annoying.Animation is not bad at all for a cartoon so old and techniques still in early days, it's crisp and fluid enough with some nice detail, sure there are some rough spots understandably especially with Disney animation becoming much more refined later. The added soundtrack and sound effects add a lot rather than distract, actually improving the cartoon's impact and making things easier to understand.Most of the gags work very well in 'Oh Teacher', the timing is more consistent and the humour is wonderfully crazy and witty. Oswald is an endearing protagonist and the Pete-like nemesis is every bit as fun, their conflict is the driving force of the cartoon and one of its high points.Overall, good fun. 8/10 Bethany Cox

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Oh Teacher" is a Walt Disney cartoon from 1927, still in black-and-white and it has its 90th anniversary next year. The star here is still Oswald the Rabbit and we follow him here how he gets in trouble with teachers and fellow students. I must say this was not really an interesting watch, but it's somewhat worth checking out because of how much Disney must have loved his cartoon rabbit as he also directed this short film. The glorious days of cartoon animation were still many years away, but you have to start somewhere and it was not a bad watch by any means. sadly, it was not a good watch either and overall I give this one a thumbs down. Not recommended or only for the biggest cartoon/Oswald fans.

MartinHafer I just watched the first two Oswald cartoons (directed by Walt Disney for Universal Studios) and noticed that this second one (OH, TEACHER) is a bit better than TROLLEY TROUBLE--mostly because it has a crazier and more rule-breaking attitude than the first. For example, when one character (the bully) has a giant question mark appear above his head as he thinks, he pulls it down and uses it to attack Oswald. And, when Oswald yells 'help', he uses this giant word to ride like a pony! Pretty weird stuff.The film begins with kids all going to school and catching the bus. Oswald and his girlfriend are also on the way to school when the bully steps in and steals the girl. The girl rabbit is pretty annoying, as she likes the bully because of this. By the end of the film, it appears as if Oswald has beaten up the bully and his lady friend once again adores him. What a screwed up and unwholesome girl!! Overall, this silent film has very good production values for 1927. The version I saw had added sound effects and music--something not originally available when the cartoon debuted. Oddly, however, the cartoon speed is a bit too slow and varies considerably--showing that perhaps they sped and slowed the cartoon to better synchronize with the sounds.

Coolguy-7 Before I comment on this film, I should probably tell some of you who are unaware of Oswald the Rabbit. He was created by Walt Disney in 1927 before Mickey Mouse. In fact, he may have been the inspiration for Mickey because he has similar physical characteristics. If you take Mickey Mouse, stretch out his ears, and give him a fluffy tail then you'll have Oswald the Rabbit. A year later, however, another animator took him away from Disney and that's when Disney came up with the idea for Mickey.Anyway, in this short, Oswald is taking his girlfriend to school in his scooter. He runs into Pete who has just missed the schoolbus. They crash into a lake and Pete attempts to save Oswald's girlfriend. At recess, Pete and Oswald get into a fight and Oswald's package that Pete threw up on the roof falls on Pete and knocks him out.Although Disney had Oswald taken away from him, he still had Pete. Pete is the oldest of the modern Disney characters who started off in the "Alice Comedies."
