Oswald the Lucky Rabbit travels by camel to a Middle Eastern city. There he observes the local snake charmers and rescues a veiled maiden in this funny but ill-focused Lantz cartoon.

Some of the gags are very funny, especially the snake-charming sequence, but the first half of the movie seems like it is just one gag piled on another, as if some one said "Let's do an Arabian cartoon' and some one pulled the jokes out of a file. The second half is a standard chase, with a decent mix of cartoon and slapstick gags, but Oswald is largely reduced to a supporting character in his own cartoon. This happens frequently in long-running series; no one objects to the occasional focus on a supporting character or using a well established star to introduce a new character, but there comes a time when the second bananas get all the laughs. This looks like the process is underway.

Oh, well It's still funny. Take a look.
