An adventurous animated film, somewhat feminist in essence, which at the same time beautifully reminds us of the period of the migration to "the West", with the families in the covered wagons, the gold prospectors, the cavalry...

Beautiful drawings by the way, especially the landscapes, but it is also remarkable how the eyes of the figures can express so many different feelings.

A film in which feminism and gender identity indeed take a prominent place, in which a little girl rebels against the prevailing role patterns and culture. Girls should not ride a horse and cart. They should not wear pants either, let alone that they do not listen to what is imposed on them (by men). In a completely idiosyncratic adventurous way, little Martha makes her way through life. She will not have inherited it from her father, because he is a very obedient type without a backbone. "Calamity", the name says it all, wherever she goes, there are always fireworks, to the regret of those who envy it.

Furthermore, a very playful film with a good pace and a nice plot. Doesn't bore anywhere and can captivate both children and adults I think. The animations are beautiful with a lot of use of color. I thought the ending with that dubious lieutenant was rather quickly reeled off. I would have liked some confrontation more. I did think the part with the colonel and the sheriff/mayor (?) was successful.

Loosely based on the childhood of the legendary Calamity Jane. Fun for kids and entertaining from start to finish, but otherwise not terribly sensational.
