Reaux, Reaux, Reaux Your Boat

About This Movie

So, 'Reaux, Reaux, Reaux Your Boat' is an interesting little gem from 1966 that leans heavily into animation and comedy. Clouseau, as usual, finds himself tangled in absurd scenarios, especially when dealing with Captain Clamity, a character that’s just as bizarre as his name suggests—imagine a clam with limbs! The pacing has that classic cartoon feel, quick and zany, which is a hallmark of the era. The practical effects, while dated, add a quirky charm to the underwater antics. It’s not your typical Clouseau caper. It’s kind of offbeat but carries that playful spirit that defines so much of the animation from the period. Definitely a curiosity worth collecting if you’re into the off-the-wall side of animated features.

This film has seen limited releases over the years, making original prints quite rare. It’s not often discussed among animation collectors, so you might find it slipping under the radar. However, those in the know appreciate its unique humor and distinctive animation style. Despite its obscurity, there's a niche interest growing for these quirky animated shorts from the 1960s, so it may be worth keeping an eye out for any newly surfaced copies.
