NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Pluskylang Great Film overall

Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Julia Arsenault (ja_kitty_71) Pepe le Pew is my favorite character along with Pussyfoot & Marc Anthony and Hubie & Bertie created by Chuck Jones, one of my favorite animators. This cartoon is one of my favorite Pepe cartoons, because of its animation and design.In this short, a female wildcat had escaped from the zoo during the Paris Exposition of 1900. To avoid the animal control, she use black and white paint to disguise herself as a "king-size skunk de pew". But the disguise attracts Pepe le Pew, who thinks the wildcat is a giant girl skunk. And here comes the running gag (if you would call it), in which before fleeing from the amorous skunk, the wildcat mauls him.You know, I had looked on Wikipedia, that Pepe's quote after he first gets mauled: "I like it," has caused this cartoon much controversy for implying sadomasochism. Of course I didn't know that until now. Overall, I thought it was a good cartoon and that is all I have to say, except that it is another favorite starring Pepe le Pew.

Edgar Allan Pooh " . . . do not knock it," Henry the Skunk-of-a-runaway-husband-and-dad (a.k.a., Pepe Le Pew) says to conclude WILD OVER YOU. Obviously, this punch line is meaningless without knowing what the "it" is. What exactly is "it" here? "It" can be summed up in two words: Rough Sex. Pepe has tried to "close the deal" five times with an escaped wild cat who has painted itself up as a skunk to avoid recapture. (Since Pepe is nose blind, he never quails at his opportunities for inter-species trysts.) The Warner Bros. animators portray these five attempted rapes as cartoon whirlwinds--the representation you might expect if Bugs Bunny tried to get it on with the Tasmanian Devil. Pepe is somewhat ambivalent as he emerges banged up from his first four scrapes with the wildcat, but in the middle of his fifth attack (what he would call "Shooting Zee fish in Zee Barrel," as the pair are crammed into the basket of a rising hot air balloon), sadomasochist Pepe decides it's all good.

Lee Eisenberg I don't know who said it, but a really good quote says that an insane person does the same thing over and over and expects a different result (which can easily apply to the present state of US-foreign policy). But at the very least, we can apply it to Pepe Le Pew, who always tries to to get slinky with females but always repels them.In "Wild Over You", a wild cat - presumably a female, but they don't really identify the gender - escapes from a Paris zoo and paints herself black and white. Sure enough, Pepe sees her and his hormones go crazy. But this wild cat is a real fighter, and nearly massacres Pepe every time that he tries to hug and kiss her. Of course, Pepe never gives up.Probably what makes me laugh the most in this cartoon is how they play with the French language. Every sign begins with "le", and a paper boy shouts out "Read-ay vous all about it!" after the wild cat escapes. I can imagine that Michael Maltese had a lot of fun writing the screenplay, Mel Blanc had a lot of fun creating the voices, and Chuck Jones had a lot of fun directing. A really funny cartoon.

Angel-Marie Before I start this review, I would like to point out two things:1) There are/could be spoilers in this review.2) This review is dedicated to the men behind Pepe Le Pew, Michael Maltese (who created Pepe's fractured French and died in 1981), Mel Blanc (who lent a very realistic Charles Boyer impression to Pepe and died in 1989), and the last of the great WB animators, Chuck Jones (who created the character and died this year). May God rest both of your souls, you oh-so-talented men. Okay, on to the review...To the eye of someone who still thinks that Looney Tunes are children's fare, this cartoon is nothing more than your typical Pepe cartoon (cat gets painted, Pepe mistakes the cat for a skunk, Pepe seduces cat, cat runs off, hilarity ensues until the end). To the eye of someone who knows that Looney Tunes cartoons are not kid-friendly, this cartoon has a twist from the usual Pepe routine. Instead of the cat running off, the cat (here shown as a wildcat from a French zoo) claws Pepe half to death whenever he's near her.This unabashed cartoon made my side hurt the first time I watched it (and proved that Looney Tunes is not for children). I was never this overcome with laughter since "Cow and Chicken" (and believe me, their innuendo could make a Le Pew cartoon AND a Simpsons episode blush). Cartoon Network does air this somewhat frequently. GRADE: A+
