NipPierce Wow, this is a REALLY bad movie!

Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

Inadvands Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

TheLittleSongbird I certainly count myself as a fan of Pinky, and I like Pink Ice a lot. The diamond breaking like ice I agree doesn't make much sense, but that one nit-pick doesn't take away from Pink Ice's enjoyment. Everything else is done very nicely. The animation is simple in look(which actually has always been a part of the Pink Panther cartoons' charm), but also elegantly drawn and colourful. The music is also terrific, the theme tune is one of the best and most iconic theme tunes and the scoring accompanying the gags is memorable and unobtrusive. The story is efficient in pace and with not a dull or lame moment, while the humour is very strong that it makes Pink Ice one of Pinky's funniest. I also just loved Little's Hitchcock impression. Pinky is a very cool, clever and funny character, and while there is only one other cartoon where he speaks this is not at all distracting and actually added to the interest value.All in all, lots of fun and I doubt fans of Pinky will be disappointed. 9/10 Bethany Cox

ccthemovieman-1 The DeBoors Diamond Mines Ltd. and the Panther Diamond Mines Ltd. are right near each other. Guess which one is the big company and whose has a shack for a building? At least the PP has a tunnel directly underneath his shack, and we see him walking through it and carrying out a huge diamond and putting it in his huge vault.Soon we discover the men next door are digging underground and stealing the Panther's diamonds. Our hero thinks it is gophers, and goes next door to ask his rivals if they have seen any gophers. They reply by shooting him!!By the way, this is another PP episode in which we get dialog which usually means a poor cartoon, but it's fine here. It's still odd to hear the PP's voice, although it's done by famous voice-impersonator and star of American TV in this era: Rich Little.The funniest thing in this cartoon might be Little's impression of Alfred Hitchock! He gives one of the villains, "Devereaux," Sir Alfred's voice. It's very good, and I'm surprised no one, including IMDb, has commented on that. Overall, the humor was on the light side. Looney Tunes does a much better job at this sort of thing. However, since it was only one of two cartoons in which the Panther talked, it's worth having in your collection - and the Hitchcock imitation is priceless!

Shawn Watson In this cartoon, the Pink Panther has his own diamond mine in South Africa. As he locks a huge gem in his vault a man from an opposing mine (called Deboors) tunnels through and nicks it. This sets off a chain of events in which Pinky plays tricks and gets revenge on the Deboors mine, while making off with their stash of diamonds.It is rather funny how Pinky dupes the men into shooting each other and reversing the traps they have set for him back against them, keeping his cool the entire time. But why do the shotguns only cover them with black ash instead of killing them. A silly message to give to the kiddies. I'm all for gunplay in cartoons but as long as they are semi-realistic. If the Deboors miners got blown to bits and were whole in the next scene it would be a bit better.That silly moan aside, it's a very funny cartoon and features one of the rare occasions when Pinky actually speaks.

Michael DeZubiria The title `Pink Ice' refers to a hilarious competition between two neighboring diamond mines, one of them operated by our hero, the Pink Panther, and the other one operated by a team of greedy geologist type men and, as is the tradition in cartoons, one of the men is a tyrannical leader and the other is a more easy going type but is also a complete moron. Some things didn't make a lot of sense in the film, such as the way that Hoskins falls and drops the diamond that they had just stolen from the Pink Panther, and it breaks like glass. On the plus side, at least he now knows that it was worthless, because it's no secret that no diamond in the world would break from falling like that. It is particularly amusing to see that when the Pink Panther goes over to the competing diamond mine (called `DeBoors Diamond Mines'), he is dressed exactly like Hugh Hefner. Besides being made up of the traditional series of encounters between the two opposing forces in the cartoon (the Pink Panther and the two men), Pink Ice also displays one of the other stereotypes of relatively mature cartoons - shotgun blasts that, instead of blowing the target to pieces as they would in real life, merely seem to cover the subject with ash. But despite these weaknesses, Pink Ice is still one of the better one of the short Pink Panther cartoons. It is especially amusing when the Pink Panther turns the two men against each other and then, while thy are blowing each other away with their ash guns, he makes off with a tremendous diamond, mentioning the moral of the story, that the rolling stone gathers no moss. Also notice the unusual prevalence of spoken dialogue.
