11/10/2020 It has a few laughs and slap stick jokes. Not one of my favorite Buster Keaton films. See more 09/27/2015 Not a bad slapstick silent short-film, but not consistently funny or hilarious either. Some good gags - especially with the canoe - but the bears & fish bit aren't great. See more 10/16/2012 Not one of Keaton's better shorts but still a few laugh-out-loud gags. See more 08/13/2012 Not his best but still had some good funny scenes . See more 04/23/2012 Buster Keaton has always been my favourite silent film star - his film have wit, charm, intelligent, and often surrealisitic humour that launch them into the stratosphere of greatness. The Balloonatic is one of those surrealistic films that is almost brilliant in its execution. The plot is simple, and rather sweet, and Keaton's genius shines through. To modern eyes it might appear rather hackneyed, but this really is a marvel of a film. See more 02/24/2012 Keaton vs the great outdoors. The scene with the bears was hilarious.
