Having the opportunity to see this even on a television screen instead of a laptop really enhances a lot of the visuals, which are also extremely well done. With Mickey: The Story of a Mouse, the production level is a big step up from previous efforts, and it warrants this film to be seen on a big screen. None of these last documentaries have been bad, but the majority of them feel very formulaic and seem as if their only audience would be hard core Disney fans, which makes them perfect material for a streaming service. As soon as it started, I was proved wrong.

Having seen a lot of them, I was pretty confident that I knew what the look and feel of this documentary was going to be. This documentary tracks Mickey’s life all the way from the 1920s to today, showing how he has changed and shifted his personality to match what was going on throughout history.Įver since the launch of Disney Plus, there has been a large increase in the number of documentaries being produced about different parts of the Disney empire. From here, the character quickly became one of the most famous characters of all time over his almost hundred-year lifespan. Mickey: The Story of a Mouse starts with the initial idea of him from the legendary Walt Disney during one of the slow moments of his accomplished career. With my love of Mickey and Disney as a whole, I came into this documentary not knowing much about the beloved character besides all of the different films and shows that he is a part of. There’s a part of me that gets excited any time I see the notorious Mickey Mouse ears, and I doubt that is going to change anytime soon. Just like so many people in the world, Mickey Mouse was an essential part of my childhood.

Mickey: The Story of a Mouse is brimming with joy and that shows a genuine love for the famed face of the Disney Corporation.
