Cool World

Often wrongly accused of being a poor man's rip-off of WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT one must understand COOL WORLD is a far different beast. Sure, there are similarities between the two but COOL WORLD is much more a slice for the adults. Like many films (how often do I have to say this?) I don't wish to give much of the story away as it's an enjoyable one and as such you will wish to see it unfold for yourself. What I will say is this is one of Ralph Bakshi's best films and if for nothing else is worth a watch just to see Brad Pitt running around calling folks a "wackadoo". Gabriel Byrne and Kim Bassinger raise to the challenge of a live action/animation crossover and comic junkies will love the homages Bakshi plays to some of comicdom and animation's best, especially Tex Avery. A good bit of fun action....just not for the kiddies.
