A Pantera Pinta o Sete

This is the first in a collection of Pink Panther cartoons, where the pointy nose man is painting a house entirely blue. However, the Pink Panther has something to say to that and slyly paints the colors over with pink paint. What results is a back and forth paint duel between man and panther.

There is not much of a plot in this cartoon, just a lot of painting around. However, there are plenty of laughs and some slapstick comedy you will get out of this cartoon short. The animation look kind of dated, but unique, and there is, like almost all of the other Pink Panther cartoons, no dialog - just sound effects and a funny sounding music soundtrack.

It's fun stuff for the entire family.

Grade A

This Academy Award-winning short was the first Pink Panther theatrical release (at least as a short subject) and is a winner on all counts. Hilarious, well animated, marvelous story and use of music-everything is wonderful. There wee other very good shorts in the series, but none of them even came close to equaling this first one. I've always felt sorry for the poor little guy in this cartoon! Most highly recommended.

I didn't often love the "Pink Panther" but I always thought Henry Mancini's theme with that seedy saxophone a piece of genius. This time, the painter is trying to paint things blue but the panther is having none of it. What was grey must be blue/pink; pink/blue - it's a war of attrition. It could go on for ever, or at least until one of them runs out of paint. Narked, the painter decides to deal with his pesky nemesis once and for all. Will it work? It's a bit repetitive, we get the gist after about three minutes, but it's still quite entertaining - especially the garden sprinkler. I didn't love the end, though.

This is clever right from the opening credits and, as I learned here at IMDb, was the first theatrical Pink Panther cartoon, and it won an Åcademy Award!

To be honest, I didn't laugh out loud at anything in here, but I throughly enjoyed this probably smiled throughout most of it. To me, the inventiveness of this cartoon was the attraction. How many interesting and humorous ways can someone paint over what another person has just painted? Well, this cartoon will show you. I liked the idea of no background but only the object being painted drawn in the cartoon. It made for some unique animation.

This set the tone for many enjoyable Pink Panther cartoons to follow, ones in which there is no dialog but the visuals so well done that none are required.

'The Pink Phink' is probably the best Pink Panther short. It is also the first one and it won on Oscar. In a building the pink panther sees a man paint everything blue. The pink panther liked pink more so he changes everything to that color. Where other Pink Panther movies become dull when it is the same joke over and over again this one stays funny until the end. The simple animation makes it even funnier.
