ThiefHott Too much of everything
Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Irishchatter I've watched "Heavy Traffic", "Fritz the cat", "Cool World" & "Coonskin", all of which were pure awful, just like this one. This film also had the lack of story line and super bad characters in this. Yeah it's about an ex gangster telling his past to a stupid dim witted prostitute. Really, it was just random, not exciting or interesting to hear about.That guy was a womanizer, a cheat and a dope. He's not that likable as a character either. After this, I'm not gonna bother looking at another Ralph Bakshi because really, I'm always disappointed in his movies. I'm not even gonna watch his 2015 movie, I'll probably wouldn't like I either....I wouldn't recommend this film, it's pure stupid....
Julia Arsenault (ja_kitty_71) Though, I usually watched family-oriented animated films. But I guess, I am like wholesome vs taboo. I first encountered Ralph Bakshi's films when I was a teenager; I don't know how old I was. I started with "The Lord of The Rings;" then "Wizards," that film became my favorite Bakshi film. And then I watched on YouTube : "Fire & Ice," "Cool World" (live action/animated), "Heavy Traffic" and this film "Hey Good Lookin'."Well anyway, this film takes on a gritty,outrageous look at Brooklyn, New York in the 1950s. But the film's story is about the gang-leader Vinnie, his gang called the Stompers; his relationship with his sexy girlfriend Roz and his "friend" "Crazy" Shapiro. And also the all-out rumble with the black rival gang called the Chaplins near the film's ending.I love the scene where we first meet Roz, it has a great homage to Tex Avery's "Red Hot Riding Hood" cartoons. I also love the part where Vinny screamed at the corpse buried in the sand and all the Sicillians that are on the beach, dogpiled and beat up Shapiro; that guy is TOO MUCH!
haildevilman When "Coonskin/Streetfight" caused a load of controversy and the technical specs caused difficulty, this one sat on a shelf for WAY too long.And it may be Bakshi's best.This was like "Heavy Traffic" but two decades earlier. Take away the 70's lingo and bring in the greasers. Ralph seems to be exorcising a rough past with his father here. Not for the first time either.The best part of this film is the wrecking of the 50's myth. It wasn't all great economy and capitalism. The poor existed. Gangs ran rampant. And the races were at odds. This film points that out. And points again...The autobiographical angle shows too. Both this and "Traffic" have the struggling artist character getting heat from all around him.This was like a JD flick but VERY serious. Getting lost in that shuffle was the worst thing that could happen to it.Go see it.
saint-21 O.K. I am a big fan of cartoon movies. with live footage. This one gets goofy in some spots but very watchable.. get it on video, and give it a good chance.
