GamerTab That was an excellent one.

RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

utgard14 Fun Bob McKimson-directed Bugs short that has Bugs tussling with a Texas oil baron who bears a slight resemblance to Yosemite Sam. The plot kind of writes itself: the baron sets up an oil derrick right on top of Bugs' rabbit hole. Bugs has a problem with that and is promptly told to "git." This, of course, means war. It's a funny cartoon with a couple of interesting new characters - the clichéd but amusing oil baron and his silent valet Maverick. The animation is beautiful with well-drawn characters and backgrounds and lovely bright colors. Great voice work from Mel Blanc. Really a solid cartoon all around. Not one of Bugs' best but still good.

slymusic Directed by Robert McKimson, "Oily Hare" is a nice Bugs Bunny cartoon about an oil field in Texas and the frustration of a multi-millionaire just because one measly hole is not gushing oil. Well, it can't, because Bugs lives down there! Two scenes that I especially like: The millionaire's dopey, red-haired chauffeur Maverick bumps squarely into him when they first approach Bugs' hole. The oilman also has quite expressive eyes after he blows out his "birthday candles"."Oily Hare" is just another one of those Bugs Bunny cartoons in which the rabbit easily outwits his adversaries, no better or worse than any of Bugs' other pictures. The oilman's voice bears a resemblance to the cold, mean-spirited, hot-tempered Yosemite Sam!

ccthemovieman-1 Wow, the puns and the parodies, etc., are in full bloom right off the bat in this takeoff of Texas and it's oilmen and all their money.Bugs' even has his own address: "Deepinhola, Texas." Down there, in his semi-fancy hole in the ground, Bugs is first seen singing and playing the banjo. Here are some of his lyrics to the famous song "Home On The Range:""Oh, give me a home, where the billionaires roam, and the oil and the cattlemen play"With their gushing oil wells and their gushing hotels, and count up their money all day......"Well, you get the idea: this is oil country and tons of money The first real sign of that when we soon see the longest limousine in history roll up and we get the two other main characters of this story: two small dudes: the billionaire oil man and his chauffeur "Maverick."Since, as the little oil man states, there shouldn't be a hole in Texas that isn't gushing oil, they see Bugs' hole in the ground and want to convert that to an oil well. That's the theme of this story, and you know Bugs is not going to allow that!The oil man, in essence, was Yosemite Sam without the beard: same Mel Blanc voice, same stupid, obnoxious character and same foil for Bugs. The ending was good, with Bugs explaining to us how this improbable thing we see could happen.

smicalef In this decent Bob McKimson short, Bugs' hole is mistaken for a oil well in Texas by a rich Texan and his mute sidekick.One of the strengths of this short is the pantomime of the sidekick, Maverick. A decent character that could have been brought back on occasion, like Mugsy.Definite must see if you never have. 8/10
