Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

TheLittleSongbird Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd have always been great characters, two of the best in the Looney Tunes canon, and they've always been enormously entertaining as a duo. The Wacky Wabbit is one of their earliest collaborations, and for me it's also one of their best and one of the best of Bob Clampett's Bugs Bunny cartoons.The animation is very good, especially for such an early Looney Tunes cartoon. It is true that Elmer and Bugs' character designs are very different to the ones we know them now by and admittedly first time seeing them in their early designs it took me a while to get used to Elmer's fatter and stockier (apparently more reminiscent of his voice actor) and Bugs' longer- particularly the ears- and more pointed looks, but they are still well drawn and move well within the rest of the animation and it is actually really interesting to see how these two characters evolved over the years. The colours are luscious and richly bold, if more vibrant-looking a short time later, and there is a huge amount of meticulous detail, fluidity and imagination in the backgrounds.Carl Stalling's music score, as expected, is superb. It is very characterful and often enhances the cartoon's energy (and The Wacky Wabbit is full of it, in the music, pacing and the gags), the orchestration is mellow and beautiful with very clever use of instruments, that perfectly match the gestures and expressions of the characters and the suspense and energy of the cartoon itself, and rhythmically it's non-stop liveliness and atmosphere. Love the use of Bury Me Not on the Prairie and especially the inspired Oh Susannah, the visuals are great in both especially the latter, the harmonies in Oh Susannah are lovely and the lyrics are very humorous. The dialogue is sharp and hilariously zany, the verbal interplay is such a joy, while the gags do show evidence of the wonderfully wacky style the Looney Tunes cartoons had (it's true that the style didn't hit full stride until mid-40s, but there is evidence of it in The Wacky Wabbit), the cutting of Elmer's clothes gag revealing a corset and his reaction is a particularly strong gag. The dynamite gags are great too.Bugs is every bit as wacky as the title suggests and even when meaner to Elmer than their later collaborations he is still the hilarious Bugs Bunny we know and love. Elmer may be unrecognisable from his more famous and to be honest more appealing appearance later on, but he is appropriately dim-witted and is equally as funny and as much a threat to Bugs (and vice versa), and one does feel a bit of sympathy for him. Their interplay and chemistry is as ever so much fun to watch. Mel Blanc and Arthur Q. Bryan do a characteristically terrific job with the voices.All in all, a wonderful cartoon, one of the duo's best and one of Clampett's best. 10/10 Bethany Cox

slymusic "The Wacky Wabbit" is a great Bugs Bunny/Elmer Fudd cartoon directed by a guy whose sense of humor could only be described as wacky: Robert "Bob" Clampett. In this film, and a few others, Elmer seems to have put on a lot of weight. This time around, he's not after wabbits; he's after gold! But with that wiseacre wabbit hanging awound, there ain't no gold to be found.Highlights: I always find it a real treat listening to cartoon characters singing, as Elmer & Bugs harmonize very nicely to the Stephen Foster tune "Oh Susannah" with humorously altered lyrics (and Bugs wearing a cow skull). When it is revealed that Elmer wears a corset along with his unglamorous polka-dot underwear, he looks directly at the camera and says, "Don't waugh! I'll bet pwenty of you men wear one of these." Bugs sings a jazzy rendition of "Bury Me Not on the Lone Prairie" as he buries Elmer in the ground. And Bugs creates pandemonium for Elmer with a stick of dynamite.In closing, Bugs Bunny truly is "The Wacky Wabbit"!

Robert Reynolds The major Warner Brothers characters, at least the early ones, evolved over time into the characters best known today. Bugs, Daffy, Porky and Tweety all started out looking quite different in the beginning. But perhaps the most involved and extensive changes were made by Elmer Fudd. He started out as Egghead, got a name change to Elmer and then a physical change of appearance not once, but twice! This is the early, more rounded Elmer. Probably one of the best of the early Elmers and an excellent short. Well worth watching. Recommended.

dimadick In this very good short Elmer Fudd is a gold prospector in a desert.He is constantly singing"Oh Susana".He has to face the hard conditions of the desert and also a certain Bugs Bunny out to demolish his every hope.One of my favorite shorts.Bugs and Elmer are real threats to each other.Bugs here is quite sinister too.Elmer doesn't even provoke him.The hopeless Elmer seems quite mad in the end when he laughs having taken his own gold tooth out.Serves to point how demented Warner Bros toons can be.Much better than today's sugary toons.
