I don't know why this movie is X rated, its should be 18+ and movie is good, smooth and talks about cultural revolution at the time.

Ralph Bakshi is an interesting guy with an equally interesting catalogue of films under his belt. Nudity, gore, and social commentary is his bread and butter, and Fritz the Cat was the start of all that... Barely, considering this felt almost didn't cross the finish line due to all the lines it crossed, the frustrations of his fellow creatives, and the hatred of the guy who made the comic this was based on. The final result? Something truly unique, but also a little meandering. Yeah I weirdly don't have any strong feelings on this one. It's production history is like, twice as interesting as anything in here. The animation is pretty and the occasional insight on culture in the 70s is interesting enough, but it just as regularly finds itself getting distracted by boobs as much as the main character himself for any of it to stick for me. Its a decent watch with an interesting space in animation history, but I probably won't come back to it myself.

Fierce, ramshackle and psychedelic: this in a nutshell is Ralph Bakshi's first feature film in his transposition of Robert Crumb's comic strip of the same name, _Fritz the Cat_. Despite its many flaws (first and foremost, a jagged rhythm that is difficult to appreciate) this animated film is to be considered a jewel for its innovative power. The first animated film entirely dedicated to adults, _Fritz the Cat_ deals with some of the hottest issues of the US in the 1960s in an uncensored manner. While displeasing everyone (conservatives, progressives and the author of the stripes himself, Crumb, who distanced himself from the film) Bakshi managed to win an audience and a notoriety that would accompany him to this day from his first important work. A cult film destined to remain so for its unsettling, irreverent and adversarial power.
