January 4, 2012A very entertaining tribute to classic Looney Tunes cartoons and a very diffeent take on them too of which they are all just animated actors. The effects are well done and although the toons steal the show it's still a really fun ride and will bring a smile to everyone's faces bi... read more

May 20, 2011The bad plot and the excited, but terrible screenplay, don't made this movie a good thing to the filmography of Looney Tunes. With the nonsense gags based in old cartoons, Larry Doyle and Joe Dante does another damm motion picture that gonna make the audience think twice, before ... read more

March 23, 2011Ok, the Looney Tunes are cool and funny. But thats just because, well, ITS THE LOONEY TUNES!!! The plot, actors, and settings ar boring, horrible, & couldve been done better. The comedy is pretty good though, but as I said, its only cause its The Looney Tunes.

September 19, 2010What starts out as promising, quickly turns to cinematic crap once Steve Martin shows up.

December 4, 2009Good this Movie is not bad, I rather stuck on those Looney Toons Cartoons. I use to love to wake up early saturday mornings just for this tiny guys as a kid while my parents were still snoring. lol
There is nothing comparing to those Saturday Mornings Cartoons my Friends. -
July 2, 2009Really not my type of thing at all and I have to admit to skipping through most of the last half hour, but it was kind of clever how they had the cartoon and live action bits at the same time and some of the jokes in it were actually funny. Also a shocker to see Steve Martin act... read more

December 29, 2007Cute movie a bit like Who Framed Roger Rabbit? where tunes and humans mix together. Good cast with lots of cool Looney Tune characters.

November 7, 2007As someone who pretty much enjoyed Space Jam ten years ago I wanted to check out this as well. The movie's problem is that it tries to please all ages. The goofing around of the cartoons is only funny for kids, the movie quotes and references for adults. The best moments are the ... read more

The film's appeal is universal, much as the appeal of the Looney Tunes characters is universal. Full Review

David Edelstein, Slate
A nutty, zany, wacky, unruly, spastically hilarious hodgepodge that hits at least twice as often as it misses. Full Review

Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
... a cheerful and self-referential romp blending animation with live action in a non-stop quest for silly laughs. Full Review

It's not a disgrace, but it is a missed opportunity. Full Review

Desson Thomson, Washington Post
Has its funny moments, but all too often it's a corny, lackluster film in which humans pretend (not always convincingly) to interact with cartoons.

It's one of those films that, as they say, 'has its moments,' but that doesn't really come together as a fully realized whole. Full Review
