Advertised as "X-rated and Animated," Fritz the Cat earned an impressive $25 million in 1972. Screenwriter-director Ralph Bakshi based the film on three of Robert Crumb's stories about a superficial college student who tried to seduce anything in a skirt. The gritty, often gross film shocked U.S. audiences accustomed to innocent flirtations and slapstick comedy in cartoons. Thirty years later, Fritz looks less shocking than puerile. The violence grafted onto Crumb's innocent stories feels gratuitous, and the racial imagery tasteless. As dated as a Nehru jacket, the film will interest students of animation history and American pop culture. Crumb detested the film: he drew Fritz as a decadent Hollywood star, who was exploited by caricatures of Bakshi and producer Steve Krantz--and murdered by a bitter ex-girlfriend. "Another casualty of the '60s..." --Charles Solomon

Ralph Bakshi fans everywhere will appreciate this movie - nothing subtle about the social satire delivered inherent throughout the story

Fritz is one funny seeker of Life = Sex. Director Ralph Bakshi has left us an almost forgotten hero of the huge social changes that were simultaneously happening during the Age of Hippiedom.
The animation and coloring is just as awesome as when I first saw it at the movies and fans of Robert Crumb will will really dig this. Whether you were there or not, this is a great flick.
Rating system was so new when the movie came out it got the "X" rating, heavy "PG" or "R" might be more appropo ... Read More

"Fritz the Cat", the very first X-rated animated feature, is a good, yet strange film that is not for everybody. There are reasons to watch it and to avoid it. I personally like it.
The film is about the adventures of a young hip cat (literally a cat) through 1960's New York. It follows him from his pot-fueled bathtub orgy to his brief association with a group of sadistic revolutionaries.
The film has many positive attributes. It is a hilarious, yet pitch-black, satire of the ... Read More

I remember when I saw the second Fritz the Cat movie, IT WAS HILARIOUS! I mean... the stereotypes, the drug trips, the impersonations of celebrities!!... It was great! XD
This one (the original), well... is also crazy and hilarious but COMPLETELY different to the sequel. This one is more about how Fritz is going around having sex, using drugs, metting promiscuous women and lowlife guys, being racist, violent, and rock n' roller. The movie is set on the 60's and it's all about how the 60's ... Read More

Fritz the Cat is based on a character created by underground comic book artist Robert Crumb and is written and directed by Ralph Bakshi. When it was released in 1972, it generated controversy for being the first X-rated cartoon. Crumb disowned the film upon its release and having seen it, it's understandable why.
Skip Hinnant gives some charming voice work as Fritz the Cat, a New York University student. Beginning in the 1960s, we meet Fritz while he eavesdrops on a few female cats talking ... Read More
