"The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald: Scared Silly" is a 40-minute short film from almost 20 years ago and the title already tells us that this is just one of several movies. McDonalds obviously tried to turn their famous character Ronald McDonald also into a movie star. But it was not successful. These days, no such films are made anymore I believe. Maybe the character just isn't made for film. At least he is an icon in advertising and, of course, maybe you have seen him in "Logorama" too. The beginning and end feature a live action Ronald, while the large part in the middle is 100% animation and tells us a story when Ronald goes camping with his friends. It becomes quite a supernatural adventure. This film here is only worth seeing for relatively young audiences. There is not much cinematic value to it and the story and characters (that includes the animated Ronald McDonald) do not make a lasting impression. There are a couple good moments, but overall it is nothing special. I do not recommend the watch. The only somewhat decent aspect was the music.
