Oh! How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning is a charming little animated short that captures the chaotic energy of military life through the lens of a cartoon army camp. The combination of Reis and Dunn alongside Betty Boop brings a lively musical element, and the bouncing ball inviting viewers to sing along adds a playful, interactive touch. The pacing is brisk, keeping you engaged while the visual gags and whimsical character antics unfold. Themes of morning struggles and the rigors of soldier routines are lightheartedly explored, making it a delightful watch for animation enthusiasts. The practical effects, while simple, really showcase the creativity of the era, keeping the atmosphere fun and lively throughout.
This short is relatively scarce in physical formats, with early prints being more sought after by collectors. It has appeared in various compilations and collections focused on classic animation and Betty Boop, but standalone releases are less common. Enthusiasts often appreciate it for its historical context in early American cartoons and the way it encapsulates the playful spirit of the 1930s animation scene.
