The NAACP approved it. And it's not like Bakshi is a tone deaf white guy: he was born in Palestine and is an American immigrant. He might not 'get' the African-American experience, but he understands marginalization, social failure, a whole lot of things that affected and still affect African-Americans. He's a brilliant observer.

This movie was hilarious and great. Straight classic. Them weird adult animated films be the best piece of work.

I can easily say that this is not only my absolute favorite Ralph Bakshi movie but also one of my favorite movies in general I remember stumbling across this movie back in high school while browsing through KZread and had only read how controversial it is; but when I watched it I was very surprised by what this movie truly was A hidden gem that thankfully is getting the praise it absolutely deserves; now if I could have the full uncut version in 4K home media for my collection that would be great

Had to check my Roger Ebert rolodex. He gave it 3 stars, not 4. But even 3 was a lot for him. Yay. Now a moment of silence.

I'm 35. An aspiring filmmaker and i never heard of this! I saw a clip of it in Mr. Untouchable the Nicky Barnes documentary, and thought nothing of it. Finally, i saw it on dvd for the first time 4-23-15 at this dvd spot in Newark, which brought me here. Can't wait to cop it and see it for myself

beautiful animation! Saw this on VHS...can't wait to get the DVD!

A big inspiration in the animated field.

Been around 35 years since I saw this in college. One of a kind from a frigging genius.

Ralph Bakshi grew up in an impoverished black neighborhood, and did way more to represent black music and culture than most others at the time. He was by no means looking down on or trying to stereotype black people. He was simply representing the environment he grew up in, when others at the time would rather make happy-sappy Disney bullshit.

This reminds me of The Jazz Singer. It was a movie made by a white Jewish man and it about a Jewish character who is enamoured with Black culture and wants to sing jazz music to the disapproval of his conservative father. It also features the main character spending most of the movie in blackface. Thing is, I don’t think The Jazz Singer has the self awareness this does. Here the racist imagery is intentional, it’s meant to be shocking and upsetting and disturbing. In The Jazz Singer blackface is treated as a liberating symbol of blurring the lines between races, as a metaphor of mutual suffering. Al Jolson, the star of The Jazz Singer, is today known as the king of blackface. He performed in thousands of minstrel shows. He was also a fierce supporter of racial equality who read about two Black musicians being denied service at a restaurant and personally tracked them down to invite them out to dinner. They became lifelong friends. I don’t want to suggest that these positive things mean that these movies and others like them are beyond criticism. To do so is just as foolish, possibly more so, than dismissing them as racist without analyzing them further. What I want to convey is that this shit is complicated. There are valid reasons to love and to hate both of these works. What’s important is to actually engage with them.

It has lots of good style even I really loved Miss America. She's a hot babe, man. I adore Ralph Bakshi even his crazy creativities. I hope his movies will be on 4-K Blu-rays.

Please don't bring Sausage Party into this. Adult animation from the 70s and 80s was brutal, uninhibited, and masterful. Nothing was off limits, because things needed to be said. Nothing today would be the same, especially with purity police sjws trying to cancel everything that doesn't kiss liberal ass. Bakshi may be gross but he was an artist. Movies like Sausage Party marketed itself on being offensive for fun, instead of social commentary that happened to be disturbingly offensive.
