A short, pointy-nosed safecracker intends to rob a safe in a building, but he doesn't realize that the safe is occupied by the Pink Panther, who has made the safe his home. When the safecracker tries to blast the safe open with explosives, the Pink Panther returns each of the thief's devices just before they explode, with the thief taking all of the blasts. Finally, the Pink Panther decides to let the persistent, little man have the safe, which the panther has rigged with a bomb.

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
OllieSuave-007 This is a great, slick Pink Panther cartoon - one of his earlier ones - where he outsmarts a bumbling robber who wants to take away the panther's safe in his apartment.From constantly having the safe fall on him from being blown away by a bomb, the robber hilariously falls for the panther's slick tricks.There's no dialog or laugh track in this short, and the music score is perfect - classic Pink Panther that what makes these earlier cartoons funny, exciting and full of substance.Overall, great little cartoon. Wished all robbers could be outsmarted like this.Grade A
TheLittleSongbird There is much to love about the Pink Panther cartoons. He is a very iconic and likable character, and his cartoons make for at least amusing viewing. If you love Pink Panther, you'll love Dial "P" for Pink. The story isn't much of a surprise but at least it's never dull. And it helps that the gags are so great, all of them especially the ending range from funny to hilarious. The animation is simply designed, especially the background art, without being too simplistic. The colours are very nicely done. The music is the epitome of cool and catchy, the main theme is the most memorable and irresistible themes. Pinky still is a very likable character, while his foil matches him very well.Overall, great and any Pink Panther fans will enjoy it. 9/10 Bethany Cox
Stephen Holloway In 1965, this short was released. The picture features the music from Shot in the Dark and was done wonderful by William Lava as well. In the film, the Pink Panther tries to sleep in the safe. However, an would be thief tries to rob the safe. No matter what the thief does, the panther always finds a way to have the thief fail. Eventually, the thief uses his head to carry the safe like an balloon but, the panther pops the balloon and dropped it on the thief. Next, the panther tricks the bandit into taking an exploding safe. Which at first the thief thought was an bomb but then thought it had money and reclaim the safe. I highly recommend the picture for the ending and the gags between the thief and the panther. It's was available on DVD so, if you can find the DVD, watch it and you'll enjoy it as well.An 9 out of 10
ccthemovieman-1 These first Pink Panther cartoons all had the same thing: the panther driving someone nuts! In this case, it's a second-story burglar. Just inside the window is a safe and the little man is there to crack it. Unfortunately, the Pink Panther is inside. Why? We have no clue, but the fact is that he's there and he drives the totally befuddled thief insane by constantly changing locks, opening the top door and pushing him back out the window, etc.For all but the last 50 seconds of the cartoon, the burglar doesn't know the Panther is inside the safe. When he discovers, some really strange scenes occur. It's amazing how many gags they produce in less than a minute!
