The little Cheburashka is known to everybody in the former Soviet Union countries and even if his popularity has not really made it to the western world, it is still a cartoon worth watching for animation lovers, even or maybe because it is pretty different. This one here is the second from the series (after "Krokodil Gena") and it features Cheburashka as the title character this time, maybe because he had more cuteness and star potential than Gena. But Gena is also back here, so you will not miss him. Kachanov did a decent job with this one too and I believe it is at least as good as the first. I enjoyed it. Actually, you can watch all 4 of these cartoons in a rush as all taken together they aren't even 70 minutes long. I recommend checking it out. Cute and good story. Thumbs up. I am surprised this has not yet any reviews with the really strong rating and high number of votes.
