The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

The Pink Panther is a secret agent looking for enemy spies in this funny cartoon short, where a background voice narrates the story's every element and talks to the panther, guiding him on his secret mission to catch the crooks.The spies attempt to detonate a series of black-ball devices around the city and the panther tries to stop them, only to see himself hilariously being counterattacked by guns, crocodiles and cigarette bombs. Lots of slapstick comedy and moments that will make you laugh-out-loud.Grade A

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.
