Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Aryana Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

TheLittleSongbird Was very fond of Woody Woodpecker and his cartoons as a child. Still get much enjoyment out of them now as a young adult, even if there are more interesting in personality cartoon characters and better overall cartoons.That is in no way knocking Woody, because many of his cartoons are a lot of fun to watch and more and also still like him a lot as a character. 'Pantry Panic', while not a Woody Woodpecker classic, is still very entertaining, yes even with some very corny (and in a bit too silly a way) puns, even for cartoons puns, and a fairly standard story. While there may be cartoon characters with slightly more interesting personalities, Woody is still at his best incredibly funny, never obnoxious and very lovable self, summing him up in one word it would be wonderfully nuts. His personality traits are still evolving, for example he is more vicious here in 'Pantry Panic' to usual, and while a few are different others are unmistakably recognisable.For so early on, the animation is great. Woody is much more appealingly designed even though still evolving, while the colours are rich and vibrant and the backgrounds meticulous in their detail.Another standout quality is the music. It's characterful, lushly orchestrated and is not only dynamic with the action it even enhances it. The writing is suitably witty and raises a number of chuckles, while the never less than amusing and beautifully timed sight gags are even more impressive.Especially, agreed, the ones with the ice cube and the moose, not to mention the ending. The cat is great support for Woody, and in a way you root for both but you're shocked at the vicious, but thankfully never overly-sadistic that it'll make one uncomfortable, lengths they go to against one another.Voice acting is good, though Woody's original voice actor Mel Blanc only does his laugh here.In summary, even with more of a vicious tone 'Pantry Panic' is still colourful and entertaining. 8/10 Bethany Cox

John T. Ryan THIS PRODUCTION CAME along when the Woody Woodpecker character was still in its embryonic stages. The woodpecker had not developed into what we consider his best and far before his being the victim of creator/producer Walter Lantz's preoccupation with having a "cute" Woody; instead of a truly funny and irreverent wise guy. (This latter stage happened to coincide with the Woodpecker's words being voiced by actress, Grace Stafford (Mrs. Lantz).THE ON SCREEN presentation of starvation and the struggles between a manic starving bird and an equally hunger driven cat is a hard backdrop for comedy presentation. After prolonged struggling, the two are shown finishing up a feast on a hapless moose; who just wandered into the story during this extended period of extremely arctic-like conditions.WE'RE OF THE opinion that the powers that be at Universal Pictures wanted Producer Lantz to come up with an answer to Leon Schlesinger's BUGS BUNNY over at Warner Brothers' LOONEY TUNES/MERRIE MELODIES. This is a status that would be achieved, if only for a short period, some several cartoons later.WOODY WOODPERCER at the time of PANTRY PANIC may have had the proper lunacy, but gave us precious little to identify and sympathize with.

Lee Eisenberg I saw some Woody Woodpecker cartoons when I was really young, but never took to them like I did the Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies cartoons. Now that I've seen "Pantry Panic" and am old enough to offer an analysis, I'll say that what it portrays doesn't look far off. Yes, it was probably intended as nothing more than a silly cartoon, as Woody and an unidentified cat try to devour each other. But the idea of being all cooped up during the winter? "The Shining" portrayed that (just imagine Woody doing what Jack Nicholson did). And because of the declining precipitation in the southwestern US, not only will there likely be water wars, but maybe food wars.But that's merely my interpretation. It's a pretty funny cartoon. Not clever in the sense of the Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies genre, but worth seeing.I never knew that Mel Blanc also did Woody's voice. And is it just me, or does the name "Woody Woodpecker" sound a little pornographic?

Robert Reynolds This short, also available on a great many public domain tapes under the alternate title of Pantry Panic, is proof that the difference between predator and prey is a matter of who is the hungriest. Entertaining but unexceptional. Fairly easy to find. Worth watching. Recommended if you like Woody.
