I never really liked "Porky" - maybe because I found cartoons much funnier when the slapstick antics were just scored. The squeaky voices attributed to the characters always rather put me off. This one sees our eponymous stage hand discover an ant in a cage. He releases it thinking he can toy with it, but of course this turns out to be a rare and ingenious pygmy specimen that's more than a match for his would-be trottered tormentor! I did quite like the last scene, a turn up for the books but for the most part there's nothing really memorable about this short David and Goliath style feature with a touch more audience engagement from his formicate foe.
