Critics Consensus

The plot is a nonsensical, hyperactive jumble and the gags are relatively uninspired compared to the classic Looney Tunes cartoons.

Lessons of Darkness

Like a pop culture-gorged Hope-and-Crosby buddy flick hopped up on mescaline.

it's the closest we're gonna get to the golden age when Mel Blanc did the voices and the cartoons were directed by Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng and Robert McKimson

Audience Member

An energetic, fun film with plenty of Hollywood movies references. But the story lacks depth.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Charlie M

As a looney tunes fan, this is a major love-letter to the franchise. But unfortunately, the human actors (aside from Steve Martin) and maybe some of the storytelling bog this film down to a crowd pleaser at best.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
