The other issue is simply these classic toons will never be the same again without good old Mel Blanc I'm afraid. Overall this is such a clusterfuck of ideas it just feels like a bombardment from many sources, but instead of narrowing it down they just use everything, throw it all into the pot, give it a good stir and see what happens. Adults may get a slight kick from some of the parodies and reasonable gags from time to time (much like the brief 'Pulp Fiction' parody in 'Space Jam'). I think kids will enjoy the film for its bright colourful visuals and the inclusion of all their favourite characters. Not a bad thing per say.I'm just pointing it out. The funny thing is Fraser is perfectly cast for this type of film, the guy the looks and acts like a cartoon, that's why he's in so many kiddie flicks. Despite every gag being predictable and unoriginal the whole thing does look really glossy and polished.īut seriously! I mean come on.we even get Indiana Jones jungles and lava flows plus outer space action towards the end! just stick em all in there, something we appeal to someone!. Its clearly much slicker than 'Space Jam' and the live actors are impressively responsive to their cartoon counterparts. One thing I must give praise too is the sharp animation of all the classic characters plus their integration into the live action. The plot just feels totally pointless, you don't really need the plot, just call it a montage movie. A film within a film, breaking the fourth wall, cute little in-jokes and product placements etc.yeah I know the drill, problem is its just really lame. I realise that's the whole point of the film, its a full length parody made up of various little moments or sketches where each character has a spot in the light to shine. Oh Dalton, oh geez I guess its a Bond spoof again everyone, how very original. I guess the casting of Dalton kinda gives the game away as what to expect though doesn't it. Lets just say the film spoofs/homages almost every flippin' film they can muster at various points throughout the films run time. There is an Area 51 sequence which of course leads to some familiar sci-fi creations popping up. There are sequences in Vegas which end up in a car chase which isn't too bad but that all leads to the inevitable Bond spoofing ugh!. The action moves from place to place including a wide range of gimmicks just to cover all the bases and try to appeal to everyone. ![]() This film feels so phony, such a product placement hack of a flick. Its the usual thing of Bugs and Daffy working together (well you know they don't get on right?) and teaming up with the fresh faced Fraser to thwart evil Steve Martin who is possibly the worst thing in the entire film, talk about over the top-over acting and not being funny at the same time!. All the Looney Tunes stars are crammed into the film given various roles which just feels forced and unnecessary. Well for a start the plot is a jumbled mess that tries its hand at various movie genres and not quite deciding which to stick with. Not quite hot on the heels of 'Space Jam' but clearly whipped out to try and garner as much success as said film, how could they fail?.
