Film: Felix the Cat: The Movie (1988)


This review contains examples of:

  • A Rare Sentence:
    NC: So while Felix is chasing the magical, flying golden tear... (takes off his glasses to rub his face in anguish) Someone had to write that...
  • Call-Back: When the foxes are given a song for no reason, The Critic makes a new Randy Newman song.
  • Conspicuously Light Patch: Inverted when Felix encounters a pterodactyl-like monster with Glowing Eyes of Doom in the forest:
    NC: Look out! That's painted into the background so obviously it's not gonna move.
  • Deranged Animation: The Critic thinks this movie's animation "makes Yellow Submarine look sober".
  • invoked Nightmare Fuel: Calls the 3D head of Felix the Cat in the beginning of the movie this.
    Felix: Hi everybody! Glad you could make it!
    Critic: Aaaaand hundreds of screaming kids go running out of the theater.
  • Shout-Out: When the Critic rages about Princess Oriana not using such a powerful device as the Dimensporter for anything useful, he briefly acts like the Princess, claiming she only uses it to make hot chocolate. In Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie, robot Tom Servo remarks that he only uses his Interocitor, an equally all-powerful machine, for the same.
  • Swiss-Army Tears: The Critic is baffled at just how much a single tear keeps doing.
  • Take That!: Takes yet another shot at music composer Randy Newman, speculating if the random "Sly As A Fox" number was his doing.
  • Worst. Whatever. Ever!: The Critic makes very clear that this is one of the worst films he's had to review, panning it for being relentless in its obnoxiousness and nonsense.
