Reviews

Entertainment Weekly -
Ralph Bakshi's first feature in nearly a decade would like to be a down-and-dirty "Who Framed Roger Rabbit," but Bakshi isn't up to the task.

|
Washington Post -
Technically, Bakshi's work is uneven; some of the characters in his Cool universe are hilarious, while others are flat.
|
|
Christian Science Monitor -
Blending animation and live action, this ferocious fantasy is hopelessly vulgar in ways never dreamed of by "Who Framed Roger Rabbit."
|
|
Austin Chronicle -
The interfacing of the two-dimensional and three-dimensional characters is so shabbily accomplished that it makes you start noticing all the other technical glitches in the work.
|
|
Chicago Sun-Times -
Cool World is a seriously troubled film, so ragged I doubt if even the director can explain the story line.
