Cat City (1986)
In the year 80 AMM (After Mickey Mouse) on planet X the crime-syndicated Cats try to erase the Mouse-population once and for all. A scientist of the mice, prof. Fushimishi seems to have found the weapon against the threat - so Intermouse calls its best (albeit retired) agent, Nick Grabowsky, to get the plans. As a distraction for the Cats, they also send a second agent - Seargent Lazy Dick - for the mission.

Good story, Not enough for a whole film
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
A good plot, exciting, and very imaginative, strong characters with the voices of the bests of the hungarian actors, and with very imaginative puns.It's not like an anime, or an animated movie like today's ones. The filmmakers were put their hearts to the cartoon, and made it living. It's like a James Bond, or Die Hard or some action hero movie, when The Guy survives the most dangerous attacks, and at the end of the film he gets the lady. However, everything is implanted to a very exciting cartoon movie, with a good selection of film music composers.I was about 8 when I saw it first, I went absolutely bananas :D Great movie! Watch it! :)
There is only bad thing about this film: you have to be Hungarian to really enjoy it, cause it's based on Language- humor. Maybe the English version is funny too, but the Hungarian... Anyway, you will enjoy it, mostly because of it's style, the caricature guns, the evil cats, the greedy rats, and a silent hero.Adult contents in family friendly style, I first saw it as a little- boy, I laughed a lot, but now, I grew up, I really understand it's humor.The speech between the rats, and "Ms Car-Help" (woman voice in the super-car) translated by me, I don't saw the English version :) -"How may I help you?(Ms. Car help) -Hi honey, we are stuck in a large abyss, and we can't get out!(rat boss) -Simple, just push the red button, and rest in peace..." (Dumb rat pushes the red button) -Wait!(Rat-boss) -Why? (Dumb rat)" BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
It's one of the best production I've ever seen! ( or is the best :) ) It's a forever classic! I've seen it approx. 20-30 times :), last seen many years ago, so it's time to see it again :)Unfortunately, this film can not be translated to any other languages, because there's a lots of word based jokes and typical Hungarian funny things in it.I think, You could not understand the most funny things in this film if You are not Hungarian and/or You are under 18. But I Guess, it's even enough funny for non Hungarians.Is there any good English translation of this? If it's not, We should try to make it. That seems to be very difficult or may be impossible. My English knowledge is very poor to try to translate this film, but a much experienced fan can make a good English sub. Maybe.Greetings to All!
Cat City was my first non-childrens cartoon. And I absolutely loved it. It was not a giant cornball cliche at all and it was funny as hell. The animation was super in that "A Wrinkle In Time" style and the story was terrific: The Evil Cats of Cat City hypnotize mice to service the evil deeds of the cats. Gumshoe, a Rat, is hired to stop them before it's too late. My favorite part is at the end when the little fat patrol mouse is caught in the jungle with the bats. And, instead of them feasting on him for dinner (or whatever designated mealtime it should happen to be), he serenades them with a swinging trumpet solo, to which the Mexican bats contribute to. It is most excellent. I highly recommend Macskafogo (aka. Cat City) for anyone looking for a good 'cartoonie' cartoon.
