Critics Consensus: Fritz the Cat's gleeful embrace of bad taste can make for a queasy viewing experience, but Ralph Bakshi's idiosyncratic animation brings the satire and style of Robert Crumb's creation to vivid life.

Reviews

Gone With The Twins

Mike Massie

There's something unusually primitive about the artwork and the character designs; it's obvious that the artists aren't trying to craft a visually stunning masterpiece.

For a movie that's largely remembered for being "the dirty animal cartoon," Fritz the Cat is also a surprisingly biting socioeconomic critique of 1960s counterculture.

A singular, cohesive, and powerful vision, but it's also an alarmingly toxic one.
