A poor lad and a prince exchange lives while the captain of the guard tries to take over.

Charles Solomon

The Prince of the Pauper is certainly entertaining, but it goes by awfully fast. It's really just the beginning and end of a story.

The delightful short is a double treat with an effervescence that belies Mickey's age (62).

Rated: 3.5/4

[The Prince and the Pauper] is satisfying because something of value we thought was gone is back, restored and good as new.

Rated: 4/4

The movie doesn't make any impact. At full-length, it probably would have.

Any excuse to get Mickey on the big screen is OK by me, but despite some beautiful backgrounds, this short, too, is something less than magical.

Rochester Democrat and Chronicle

The animation is colorful and richly textured, and the tale and its cast are naturals. Opportunities are missed, however, to flesh out the tale.

Rated: 3/4

A spectacle of sets and costumes, all richly detailed. A story already well known, but fun to watch with classic Disney characters. Too bad the studio still took a while to invest in more productions with them.

Bem bonitinho, o livro é fantástico, uma crítica social necessária e rara a época, no mundo Disney, simples, eficiente e fofo, apesar de não ser fã do Mickey, o Pateta sempre rouba as cenas, é o mais divertido…
