ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.

Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Eric Stevenson Robert Crumb hated the movie version of "Fritz The Cat" so much he ended the comic by killing Fritz, but they made a sequel anyway. Pity Ralph Bakshi wasn't involved as the first film wasn't great, but it was at least serviceable. This movie features Fritz imagining eight other lives while being yelled at by his wife. It's just so weird to even see him with one as he was so promiscuous in the first film. Honestly, I'd like to see how he even got a wife, but it's never touched upon. My main complaint is the Henry Kissinger segment.It goes on for nearly 20 minutes and makes up a fourth of the film! In a movie that's only 77 minutes long, that's a big problem. This is the last ever appearance of Fritz the Cat in any media. So how does it end? His wife simply kicks him out and he presumably becomes a bum or something. I was always intrigued by the orange cat and tall mouse like woman that appeared on the poster and it turns out neither of them are even in the movie. **1/2

FilmOtaku I think that I went into this film expecting something completely different from what the film actually represented because I was expecting something completely raunchy and funny. While I appreciated the animation, I was left pretty flat by most of the social commentary/satire. There were images and messages that I of course understood (Hitler, Kissinger, etc.) but the majority of the subject matter was fairly relevant to the present time.Unfortunately, especially during the bizarre psychedelic freak out moments I found myself looking at the clock which is actually kind of sad considering the film was only just over an hour to begin with. Having said that however, I am glad that I finally saw this film so that I know what it was actually about, and I give the filmmakers a lot more credit for having created something that transcended novelty smut.--Shelly

1bilbo It is always a good idea to watch something all the way through before writing about it.This film has some excellent sideways kicks at society and anybody who does not have the education to understand or concentration span should switch off after ten minutes.BTW. The word "boob" means mistake what women have are breasts. To apply that word boob to a woman`s body is sexist and what one would probably expect from a redneck.This film does not have the cutting edge of the original and although some very good moments does tend to lose its way. However, these two films were landmarks and the satire has not been equaled via cartoon until South Park arrived.

gkmt50 I woke up at a strange time and was flipping channels. I found NINE LIVES OF FRITZ THE CAT on the Showtime FAMILY channel. Anyone who reads this, please go to www.sho.com to complain. I'm no prude, but to imagine a 5 year old tuning into this is horrible.Anyway, I only watched 5 or 10 minutes of this film. The animation is good for it's era, but the comedy & satire is worn and dated. Here's what the first few scenes entailed. A "big mama" cat with huge boobs is yelling at a stoned Fritz cat, telling him he's good for nothing, goes out all night looking for love, and she doesn't know why, 'cause he's bad in bed. Then we flash over to Fritz walking down the street, grabbing his crotch, lets out a fart and offends Juan, the stereotypical Hispanic Cat. Juan won't talk to Fritz because Fritz farted in his area. Fritz makes a lame comment about why doesn't Juan speak English so he can understand him? They talk about Fritz's plight to cash his welfare check. A few seconds later we see some black "thug" cats outside Fritz's house, talking about robbing this house in 'this' (white?) neighborhood. Fritz is sitting on the couch (yes, he's back home now, I guess? Flashback to earlier years?) about to light up a joint, and he's staring at his little sister's kitty butt. He's trying to get her high so he can "get with her." She smokes some, and we get a psychedelic menagerie of images that tries to be creative, but really, someone needs to take some lessons from "The Wall"'s animators. It was a stupid sequence. Flashback to the big mama cat yelling at Fritz again. Now that I read a few other reviews, I suppose the the whole time Fritz is supposed to be listening to big mama yelling at him, but zoning out to these different places while she's yelling.Anyway, my description of this is probably as funny as the cartoon itself. I didn't waste anymore of my time, I don't recommend you waste your time either.
