Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Scarlet
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The Pink Panther does home improvement and decides to heed a narrator's advice to get off his duff and work around the house. This leads one funny mishap after the other, from a runaway buzz-saw to a light that comes on and off automatically in the basement. Classic and funny facial impressions from the panther will serve up some laughs and his tactics in trying to fix stuff, from putting tape around the shower door to accidentally sawing one third of his house off.Very funny stuff here. It's non-stop entertainment and laughs - great for the whole family! Grade A

That is a shame as I love the Pink Panther and his cartoons. Shocking Pink is hardly bad, but I couldn't help feeling disappointed(though even a disappointing Pink Panther cartoon is more watchable than animation nowadays in comparison). It has things to like about it certainly. The animation is very nicely done, it's simple but colourful and smooth, and Pinky is drawn well. The iconic music is still catchy and infectious, never irritating in that respect. The ending is fun and so are one or two of the gags like the one with the shower. For all the good assets seen though what didn't work for me were issues that I just couldn't ignore. The canned laughter track had absolutely no point being there and I do agree with the commentator who felt as though they were being forced to laugh, I did get that feel as well and I shouldn't be feeling it with Pink Panther as he and his cartoons are funny all on their own. Aside from the odd moment, the humour wasn't particularly funny, much of it was predictable and lacking in energy. The canner laughter didn't things at all, and neither did the omnipresent narrator, who was decent enough to start with but quickly became irritating. The biggest disappointment though was how little Pinky properly got to shine. He is a witty, cool and clever character, but you only see this in the ending, the rest was him being irritated by the narrator and the DIY and he just seemed out of sorts. All in all, not great, not bad, kind of mixed here. It looks good, the music is still great and the odd gag is fun, but the canned laughter and narration didn't add very much and Pinky's personality didn't come through enough. 5/10 Bethany Cox

An annoying narrator and - worse - a laugh track begins this cartoon on a sour note. The narrator is chastising the Pink Panther for lying around, not doing anything. He suggests going to the basement, getting some tools and making something. There is some unfunny gag with the light switch and then the Panther saws part of his house off as a buzz saw goes out of control. The Panther pouts lies down on is bed, but once again is chastised. This time, the aggravating narrator suggest fixing leaky shower facet rather than spending big bucks hiring a plumber. Of course, that doesn't go right, either.Having a laugh track on a cartoon, for cryin' out loud, is ridiculous and an insult to every viewer....as if telling us when we should laugh. Worse, this cartoon wasn't funny in the first place. This might be the worst Pink Panther animated short I've ever seen.

Pink panther cartoons are certainly consistent. At their worst they are at least watchable. At their best they are, well, watchable. This is an average one.A disembodied narrator tells PP to stop lazing around and get on with some odd jobs around the house. The results are predictably worse than leaving well alone, but every time PP gives up that little voice starts nagging at him again...
