Watch Pink Pistons For Free

the audience applauded

Such a frustrating disappointment

Fresh and Exciting

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The Pink Panther buys a puny little car, spray-paints it pink and goes for a joy ride. However, the car seemingly has a mind of its own and can kick and race like the speed of light as it pleases. As a result, while on the road, the car gets angry with the other motorists passing him and leaving a trail of dark exhaust, and tries to get even with them, including a drag racing granny! Pretty funny stuff here, and the Pink Panther surely didn't really get his moneys worth in this car. Pretty entertaining from start to finish, and you'll be left eager to know how the panther gets out of this predicament.Grade B+

The Pink Panther is one of my childhood favourites, and I do like a vast majority of his cartoons a lot. Pink Pistons is one of his better ones from 1966. It does run out of mileage at the end, with the ending being too predictable and abrupt. Everything else though is just great. The animation is very nicely done, simply designed but also elegantly so with colours that are very easy on the eye and look as though they were done with thought and care. The music from the incidental music to the theme tune is still as catchy and infectious as ever, succeeding in enhancing the gags and giving the cartoon a sense of life and energy while giving it time to breathe also. The gags and premise are among the funniest and most creative of the Pink Panther cartoons, they all make their mark and only the ending doesn't quite work. Pinky is cool and likable, and the Granny is hilarious and probably one of my favourite Pink Panther secondary characters.Overall, another great Pink Panther cartoon. 9/10 Bethany Cox

Just watched this vintage Pink Panther cartoon on YouTube as linked from the Saturday Morning Blog. In this one, the lead character goes to a used car lot. The first car he looks at, he checks the engine and suddenly it collapses! The next one, he checks its gadgets-of which one of them raises the seat the Panther sits on up high-and it seems to be a good fit for him so he buys it. It turns up the car has a mind of its own, however, as it coughs when his owner spray paints it pink or later on when it gets challenged to a drag race by an antique car granny...Directed by Friz Freleng protégé Hawley Pratt, this cartoon is quite inventively funny almost all the way through. It's just the ending that's a little predictable. Still, Pink Pistons is certainly worth a look.

Our pink hero is searching for used cars in a lot when he discovers a James Bond-type Aston Martin vehicle with all the gadgets. This little sports car intrigues and impresses him, so he buys it.As in other Pink Panther cartoons, an inanimate object turns to be human-like, so when our guy brings his new car back home and begins to spray paint the front of it pink, the car balks! It wants no part of this spray-paint job!The car - not the Panther - winds up in a drag race against an old lady, who turns out to be "Granny Flash: senior citizens drag champion."This was hilarious, thanks to Granny, and I hated to see it end so abruptly. They could have continued this for another full cartoon with the just race between the two cars.
