This is not a bad Pink Panther cartoon - cleverly done with plenty of surprises, twists and fun. Here, he sneaks into the home of a magician after he steps out, and finds himself the brunt of magical tricks, courtesy of the magician's rabbit.From disappearing doors to crooked rooms, and from the rabbit changing in sizes to odd mirrors, it's a cartoon short that's chock full of tricks and treats. Too bad I didn't find it too funny, and it seemed the panther gets the brunt of all the misadventures.Not a bad Pink Panther, nonetheless.Grade B-

Pinky is wandering a winter landscape when he happens upon Zammo the Magician's house. He sees through the window that Zammo is leaving for the day and has left his fire burning. Not content with being a mere peeping tom Pinky then indulges in some light breaking and entering in order to warm himself up but soon discovers that Zammo's house of tricks is out to get him.The humor is smart and Pinky's pratfalls entertain but it lacks any truly memorable moments. Writer Jim Ryan went on to script childhood favorite Scooby-Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf before disappearing off the face of the Earth.

Most of the Pink Panther cartoons are good but The Hand is Pinker than the Eye- what an inspired title!- is one of the best/great ones. The animation is some of the most colourful and most inventive of any Pink Panther cartoon, while it is wonderfully wacky the simple elegance is still maintained too. The music is still infectious and it has a jazzy nature that appeals even now and works/ed wonderfully within the era too. The story is one of the more original ones of the series, and has great wild pacing that doesn't feel rushed and matches the wackiness of the gags and visual style. The gags are clever and hilarious too, The Hand is Pinker than the Eye personally has always stood out as one of the more consistently funny Pinky Panther cartoons. Pinky as you'd expect is likable and is a cool character with comic timing that comes across as very natural. The scenario does well for him. In conclusion, wonderfully wild, colourful and hugely entertaining, one of the best from the Pink Panther. 10/10 Bethany Cox

This is one of the best Pink Panther-cartoons. Not because it is funnier than the others but because it is inventive with its animation.The Pink Panther enters the house of magician Zammo the Great because he is cold. Too bad for him the house itself knows some kind of magic and a lot of surrealistic images is what follows. We have a strange mirror, a rabbit that pops up everywhere and kisses the panther over and over again, a painting that seems to be also a room of the house and a lot of other fun gadgets.Normally I am not a big fan of the Pink Panther-cartoons, although I liked them when I was a kid. This one was good and entertaining the entire time and therefore I think it is one of the best out there.
