That was an excellent one.

Absolutely amazing

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Was very fond of Woody Woodpecker and his cartoons as a child. Still get much enjoyment out of them now as a young adult, even if there are more interesting in personality cartoon characters and better overall cartoons.That is in no way knocking Woody, because many of his cartoons are a lot of fun to watch (almost all of them being in his prime era of the 1940s through to the mid-50s) and more and also still like him a lot as a character. For Woody Woodpecker cartoon from the late 60s-early 70s era and directed with Paul J. Smith, 'Coo Coo Nuts' turned out to be better than expected. There are far better Woody Woodpecker cartoons certainly, but to have a halfway decent mid-late-60s Smith-directed Woody Woodpecker cartoon was really refreshing seeing as many at this point were less than average and mostly actually very weak.It's not a perfect cartoon by all means. The animation is not great at all, or even good. Time and budget constraints shows in a lot of the animation, which is very rushed looking in the drawing and detail wise it's on the simplistic and careless side like many of Woody's cartoons from this period continuing through to the 60s.Gags-wise, some are funnier and better timed than most of the cartoons from this period but there is a lack of variety and a few are not as well-timed, the coconut jokes are sometimes groan-worthy and there is an overuse of them. The story is very thin and although with a few more surprising touches than most cartoons from this era it's sometimes derivative and repetitive as well as cheesy.However, Woody is portrayed with a lot of energy and charisma and he is not as toned down as he tended to be from the late 50s onward. With this being said, he has had much more manic energy, especially in his glory days when there was far more risk-taking, and his material is still a bit too safe.Robinson Crusoe is not one of Woody's best foils, but for a foil from this era in the series (most of which were either bland or annoying as well as derivative of more interesting past foils) he was a serviceable one that was amusing and served as some kind of conflict. The chemistry between the two is pretty good.'Coo Coo Nuts' has some amusing moments, if never hilarious, and the pace is surprisingly lively, having more of the frenetic energy one expects from Woody Woodpecker that was generally missing in this particular period.Further standouts are the music and the voice acting. The music is bouncy, energetic and very lushly orchestrated, not only synchronising and fitting with the action very well but enhancing it. The voice acting is typically solid from particularly Daws Butler.In conclusion, decent but not great, better than most Woody Woodpecker cartoons than this late period. 6/10 Bethany Cox

If this was a Warner Bros. cartoon, this would probably receive two or three stars simply because I expect better from a Warner Bros. cartoon. But because this is one of the few Walter Lantz cartoons from 1957 and onward that I tolerate, it deserves a higher rating. There is not too much that I can comment about this cartoon. The animation in it, for a theatrical cartoon, is pretty poor, but is still better than any animation produced for television today. The story is pretty cheesy as well. Woody Woodpecker ends up on an island inhabited by Robinson Crusoe, who has somehow managed to survive for years eating nothing but coconuts. Crusoe decides to eat Woody, and then there are about a thousand lackluster coconut jokes. The writing in this cartoon isn't terrible, but it is not very good either. By 1970, the year of this cartoon, Woody's heyday was over. If you want to see some great Woody cartoons, watch his films from the forties or from his short-lived cartoon renaissance in the early fifties. I advise people to pass on this one unless they want to see every single Woody cartoon. Otherwise, just skip it.
