Northwest Hounded Police Audience Reviews

GazerRise Fantastic!
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
OllieSuave-007 Another Droopy cartoon where the dog is the calm, slow-talking, yet witty and is sharp as nails. He drives an escaped convict crazy, showing up in every place the convict tries to escape to, resulting in hilarious facial expressions from the criminal .It's non-stop fun and laughter, sure to bring smiles to everyone's faces. It's entertaining!Grade A
Hitchcoc As usual, the wolf (the bad guy) matches wits with a worthy adversary. In this case, it is Droopy, the slow talking hound who never seems to get flustered. As the wolf tries to make his escape, the little guy shows up around every corner. He's always one step ahead. In addition to the cleverness of this episode, we also have the great Tex Avery and his amazing takes by the wolf. When he sees the little Mountie for about the fifth time, his jaw drops, his eyes pop out, and he literally goes to pieces. The whole thing is just unfair. There are great sight gags all over the place. It is high speed animation at its best. I always looked forward to the Droopy cartoons before the feature films in my youth.
Seamus2829 This animated short is a remake of one of Tex Avery's earlier shorts for Fred Quimby at M-G-M (Dog Gone Tired). An escaped convict (here just known as Joe)who just broke out of 'Alka Fizz Prison' tries to keep one step ahead of Droopy (known here as Sgt.McPoodle of the Mounties),but always manages to run into him,one way or another. This is easily one of the most side splitting,funny shorts that rolled out of the M-G-M animation studio. It manages to get most of it's laughs from the shocked reactions Joe has whenever he encounters McPoodle (including some equally deranged sound effects-i.e..car horns,screaming,elephants,etc.). As with any Avery M-G-M short,frantic,kinetic pacing is to be expected (along with some nice, surreal sight gags-i.e.Joe trying to run away from McPoodle & actually running off the side of the film). Pop this one into your DVD player & laugh yourself silly.
gcl1969 This is one of the funniest cartoons I have ever seen. This cartoon contains some of my favorite gags used in cartoons, from the sign at Mountie HQ (Mounty County. "We aim to police"), to Sgt. McPoodle (Droopy) notifying the wolf he's on his trail with Burma-Shave style signs, to the wolf running out of the movie frame. Truly deserved of its spot among the greatest cartoons ever made.
