For having a relatively low budget, the film's style and overall art direction are immensely impressive.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

The Pink Panther is in an all-our war between his neighbor who seems to love borrowing garden tools from the panther without asking him first. From cutting down a tree limb to protect a property line to cutting down an entire section of a house, it's a cartoon that you would love to cheer the Pink Panther on, hoping he would get the best out of his jerk of a neighbor.Paul Frees narrates the story and is the voice influencing both characters to turn on each other. Does Frees have such a menacing and devilish voice in this one - absolute chilling.Not a very funny cartoon, or a very entertaining one. Just a lot of back and forth duels with not much humor or substance.Grade C

The next-door neighbor neglects to return the Pink Panther's lawn mower, an oversight the sinister off-screen narrator is only too happy to point out to the peaceful feline suburbanite. The insinuating voice pours poison into the neighbor's ear as well, and soon the two home owners are feuding over some hedge clippers and a tree limb hanging over the property line. Finally, the Pink Panther builds a brick wall to separate himself from his one-time friend, an act the neighbor considers to be a declaration of war.At the end, the two neighbors are donning combat helmets and exchanging cannon fire, but not even the interpolation of live-action stock footage, featuring real soldiers and tanks, adds much life to this tepidly comic morality play. The Pink Panther is ill-suited to this material. The feuding neighbor storyline has been handled better elsewhere, notably in the Donald Duck short, "The New Neighbor" (1953).

LOL... I thought that Paul Frees did an absolutely spectacular and inimitable job of speaking in a sneaky seductive manner ("Then YOU cut it off...") to create steadily building resentment and get both neighbors more and more incensed with each other... it sounded EXACTLY the way I'd have expected the little orange "devil" to speak who was constantly needling both neighbors and whom we finally see at the end of the movie ("You know... it might be a good idea to return that lawn mower YOU borrowed... hahahahahahahahahaha!!!")... it sounded to me as if Mr. Frees was actually enjoying his role here as the "devil's advocate"... it appeared that he was actually having FUN doing it.

In this cartoon the Pink Panther is relaxing in his hammock in the back yard. His neighbor mows his own lawn with Pinky's lawnmower. Pinky is rather unfazed by this until a voice-over narrator reminds him and provokes him into taking back what's his. He also does this to the neighbor to prepare him for Pinky's retaliation. And so the two of them resort to bigger and badder techniques over the war of the lawnmower (and hedge-clippers) until two armies (with humorously interwoven live-action stock footage) are facing off over the garden. Pinky is in a tank, this is where the Panzer of the title comes from.It's a simple cartoon but funny. As Pinky always is.
