Looney Tunes The Day The Earth Blew Up: Back In Action

Summary: Daffy and Porkie fight aliens and their own character flaws in a gum soaked adventure.

It was nice to see a return to 2D animation, it has been far too long, and seeing it reminds us all of the horrible soulless feel of CGI animation. More films should be made in this format.

It was also enjoyable to see these characters back, Looney Tunes as a brand might struggle with relevance amongst modern kids but it is still just as charming and appealing as ever.

The story was very much how you would expect it to be, an alien is trying to take over earth for a silly reason and the gang have to stop him, only to find out that that he was trying to save earth. Then they work together, but one does not watch a Looney Tunes film for the story rather that gags and the slapstick both things this film gives you in equal measure.

Overall, a good return to cinemas for the Looney Tunes gang.

3.5/5

Pros.

The animation

Seeing the gang back in action

It has a few funny moments

It is well paced

Cons.

Bugs absence is felt

Not all the gags land
