In the Pink (1967)
In the Pink Review
In the Pink is a 1967 animated short film from the Pink Panther series.
The Pink Panther joins a gym, but cannot manage to get into shape whatever he does. I liked the premise here a lot as it had great potential for this lanky iconic character. The appearance of the Little Man was also memorable, and the animation is terrific throughout and very charming.
However, the execution is very weak as the situations at the end of the day weren’t nearly as humorous as they should have been. The same goes for the overall plot and action. Some moments are fine, but it needed a longer runtime, better pacing and overall more interesting plot points.
In the Pink is well animated and with a good premise, but the execution wasn’t nearly as strong as the premise demanded.
