Hey Good Lookin'

This movie has some of the best dialogue I've seen in an animated movie in a long time. It feels very natural and the terrible mic quality actually adds a special feel to the movie. Both the main two voice actors do such a good job at voicing a couple friends that I am convinced they shot their lines together in a studio The animation and tone of the film is very dirty, like most 70s/80s adult animated films so that's to be expected. But this really works on the darker aspects of the grease style film. There are many aspects of Italian/black gang life strewn in an the characters that would be associated and I really think it pulled together a lot of the 50s new york scene in an intersecting way I personally think it does a great job at romanticizing and vilifying the era.

Hey, Goodlooking is an intelligent, dark, and satirical look on the American youth culture of the 50's. Look beyond the poor standard of animation to a story of friendship, love and betrayal. And, of course, there are some great tunes. This film is truly a case of substance over style, which is unfairly dismissed by most people. If you can get past the early-80's, cheap techniques, as in Bakshi's LOTR, you'll discover a great film that works on many different levels.

Man alive -- this movie, aside from being in poor taste and unfunny (the poor taste would be fine if it were funny -- but its not), just doesn't go anywhere. I mean its shocking how parts don't even seem to make sense. The scene progression is just sloppy -- and the characters are just miserable and annoying.

I've watched "Heavy Traffic", "Fritz the cat", "Cool World" & "Coonskin", all of which were pure awful, just like this one. This film also had the lack of story line and super bad characters in this. Yeah it's about an ex gangster telling his past to a stupid dim witted prostitute. Really, it was just random, not exciting or interesting to hear about. That guy was a womanizer, a cheat and a dope. He's not that likable as a character either. After this, I'm not gonna bother looking at another Ralph Bakshi because really, I'm always disappointed in his movies. I'm not even gonna watch his 2015 movie, I'll probably wouldn't like I either.... I wouldn't recommend this film, it's pure stupid....

I sort of want to like this movie but it just doesn't have the panache of Bakshi's other work. I like the nostalghia for the 50s but unlike Fritz it isn't laced with cynicism or cultural commentary and is more of a personal drama. The jolty movements can get frustrating and the plot doesn't move very swiftly. The strange moments can even some quite incongruous. But I still find some ineffable charm to it. It's not the power house of emotion it thinks it is but as it usually the case with Bakshi, you won't forget it in a hurry.

O.K. I am a big fan of cartoon movies. with live footage. This one gets goofy in some spots but very watchable.. get it on video, and give it a good chance.

This full-length animated feature takes an amusing and often outrageous look at life during the '50s. Everything from street gangs to young love is given a satirical once-over. If you liked this you will love FRITZ THE CAT.
