Absolutely amazing

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Love animation, it was a big part of my life as a child, particularly Disney, Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry, and still love it whether it's film, television or cartoons.Also have much admiration for Tex Avery, an animation genius whose best cartoons are animated masterpieces and some of the best he ever did. Generally like the Droopy cartoons and the character himself a lot, his best cartoons are classics and among Avery's best. Both these distinctions, of it being one of Droopy's best and Avery's, are true for 'Northwest Hounded Police'. It is only Droopy's fourth cartoon and he is already a character so well established in personality and manages to be both lovable and very funny.The Wolf is a villain that has menace and great comic timing, with brilliantly animated and priceless reactions, whether it's the facial expressions or his body language, some of the best in the whole of animation definitely. 'Northwest Hounded Police' is yet another endlessly inventive and hysterically funny cartoon in a way that is unmistakably Tex Avery.Avery does a wonderful job directing, with his unique, unlike-any-other visual and characteristic and incredibly distinctive wacky humour style all over it as can be expected.'Northwest Hounded Police' is deliciously wacky, it is also incredibly clever, imaginatively creative and full of inspired visual gags, play on words and hilariously droll asides and deliciously corny puns. It's essentially a one-joke cartoon but has so much variety and imagination that it never becomes repetitive.It is no surprise either that the animation is superb. The character designs are unique, Avery always did have creative character designs, and suitably fluid. The music, courtesy of Scott Bradley, is lushly and cleverly orchestrated, with lively and energetic rhythms and fits very well indeed.Voice acting is very good from Bill Thompson and Frank Graham.Overall, an animated masterpiece. 10/10 Bethany Cox

As usual, the wolf (the bad guy) matches wits with a worthy adversary. In this case, it is Droopy, the slow talking hound who never seems to get flustered. As the wolf tries to make his escape, the little guy shows up around every corner. He's always one step ahead. In addition to the cleverness of this episode, we also have the great Tex Avery and his amazing takes by the wolf. When he sees the little Mountie for about the fifth time, his jaw drops, his eyes pop out, and he literally goes to pieces. The whole thing is just unfair. There are great sight gags all over the place. It is high speed animation at its best. I always looked forward to the Droopy cartoons before the feature films in my youth.

Come on. Anyone who doesn't understand the greatness of this here cartoon should be kicked off any critic's panel. They should not be allowed to be heard, because they obviously have no sense of humor whatsoever. Anyone who does not love this here animated cartoon directed by Tex Avery should be chained to a chair and forced to watch "Huckleberry Hound" episodes for 20 years straight! The takes and double-takes by the Wolf in this cartoon are the finest examples of this important past of comedy that have ever been captured on film. Tex Avery should receive a posthumous Academy Award for this cartoon. It's the best.

This is one of the funniest cartoons I have ever seen. This cartoon contains some of my favorite gags used in cartoons, from the sign at Mountie HQ (Mounty County. "We aim to police"), to Sgt. McPoodle (Droopy) notifying the wolf he's on his trail with Burma-Shave style signs, to the wolf running out of the movie frame. Truly deserved of its spot among the greatest cartoons ever made.
