A raucously fun cartoon that combines raunchiness, political satire and hip-hop to sometimes exhilarating effect.

The Hungarian cartoon feature The District! is a last-minute shoo-in for the title of 2007's most original animated film.
Matt Zoller Seitz, New York Times
Fresh
A tasty Hungarian goulash.
V.A. Musetto, New York Post
Fresh
Fifteen credited artists labored over the distinct animated style, a jerky collage in which cutouts of actors' heads are blended with animated bodies and surroundings; result is crude yet novel.
Eddie Cockrell, Variety
Rotten
Eye-popping as The District! is, the overarching geopolitical satire is a haphazardly lobbed grenade too dim-witted to be explosive.
Aaron Hillis, Village Voice
