Wonderfully offbeat film!

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Pinkfinger is perhaps not among Pink Panther's best, but it is still a good fun cartoon, which is what matters more. Phrases like "old boy" and "good show" in the narration are overused to annoyance, some of the character designs are lacking in smoothness and while amusing the alligator gag has been done before in cartoons many times so the outcome wasn't all that surprising. However, the colours and backgrounds are beautifully done and look very Fritz Freleng, it's simple but effective in that sense. Henry Mancini's main theme is iconic, you can still hear why and the rest of the music accompanying the action is just as catchy. Pinkfinger is more amusing than it is hilarious, but it still entertains. The cartoon's biggest laugh easily comes from the "blast him" gag, if there was one part that was hilarious it was this. The story fun, well-paced and different somewhat for the Pink Panther, nothing comes across as predictable or derivative. Pinky as ever is subtly cunning, and has considerable enough to carry the material. Paul Frees and Dave Barry's vocals are very nicely done. All in all, not Pinky at his best but still worth the viewing. 7/10 Bethany Cox

The Panther is reading his "Secret Agent" and hearing a voice coming from somewhere, sort of a narrator and he's asking the PP if he'd like to be a hero, getting spies and all that. They are all over the place, just a stone's throw away, according to the voice. The Panther grabs a stone, throws it out his window and suddenly hears some angry Russian curse. So, he takes the voice's advice and goes outside to be a spy. The voice, with an annoying British accent, follows the Panther and instructs him on what to do. There are tons of "I say," "good show" and "old boy," etc. It sounds like David Niven back in the '50s and '60s. All I can say is "bring back the no-dialog Pink Panther cartoons; they are far better than this sort of thing. The dialog is not only not funny, but it detracts from the sight gags which made this cartoon so clever and popular.

The Pink Panther reads a book called 'Secret Agent' and fancies himself as a bit of a Spy. Luckily for him an offscreen narrator informs him of a gaggle of Ruskie spies conspiring in a building a few yards away. Pinky now takes it upon himself to see what they're up to. Cue sight gags and mishaps as nothing Pinky seems to try works and he'll end up with his fur blown off or something. It's all funny and director Hawley Pratt and producer Friz Freleng use their Looney Tunes experience to bring a familiar sense of anarchy to some of the gags. But don't ask me to explain that last joke, coz I just don't get it.

Cartoons starring the Pink Panther do not belong to my favorites. They always have one or two funny moments but compared to the cartoons from Disney and Warner Brothers they are not good. 'Pinkfinger' is no exception, unfortunately, although it is a little different from other cartoons starring the Pink Panther.The Pink Panther is a secret agent and communicates with a person off-screen. With the help of that person he tries to catch some of the bad guys. Things do not go as planned, of course.All things that go wrong with the Pink Panther in this cartoon could be really funny but it gives us only one or two laughs. The first moments are pretty good as well, the ending saves this one a little. Still, not recommended.
