Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen

Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

danegem The looney toon shorts have always struck me as various sketches/ideas/caricatures which would often vary on whether they would cater to one's tastes or entertainment value. Like the Marx Brothers, Saturday Night Live, Steven Spielberg animated shows ("Animaniacs"/"Freakazoid"/"Tiny Toons"/"Pinky and the Brain") or any non-Disney animated Theatrical short, the Looney Toons do what they think is funny, when they think it is funny and how they feel it should be carried out. This short struck me as an intermission between two other shorts, or even as part of a feature length film tracking Bugs Bunny's adventures. It is simple: Bugs Bunny is in a barrel in the sea, and he is picked up by a motherless gorilla who wishes to have a child of her own. Deciding to play along and indulge her, Bugs goes home and is greeted with hostility by papa gorilla. The short ends with Bugs Bunny besting the Papa Gorilla in a "battle of wits". Honestly, nothing special goes on in here. They both bang each other on the head and chase each other around, but its not very funny; its just plain boring. The opportunities one could have with such a setup are limitless, and it just seems like there was lazy planning and a lack of potential gags and setups. This is one short I will only recommend you watch once, unless of course you are a die-hard Looney Toon fan.

slymusic Directed by Robert McKimson, "Gorilla My Dreams" is a wonderful Bugs Bunny cartoon in which the wascawwy wabbit is forced to pose as a baby gorilla for the big, burly, brutal Gruesome Gorilla and his wife. Mel Blanc supplies the voices of all three characters, and he is especially hilarious as the mother gorilla.Highlights: When Bugs' barrel (in which he set sail) is snatched by the mama gorilla, Bugs sings "Someone's Rocking My Dreamboat". Bugs and Gruesome dance to a conga beat while Bugs repeatedly kicks a coconut palm tree. Aided by Carl Stalling's music score, Bugs does his best monkey imitation when he is first introduced to Gruesome."Gorilla My Dreams" is a pretty good cartoon for a laugh or two. Catch it on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 2 Disc 1, with an optional commentary by animation historian Jerry Beck.

ccthemovieman-1 Bugs, floating in a barrel in the ocean but unperturbed by it all, washes ashore on "Bingzi- Bangzi - Land of the Ferocious Apes." After some beautiful artwork showing the jungle, we come across some apes lying around reading books with titles such as "Apes Of Wrath" and "Our Vines Have Tender Apes." That's one feature I love with these Looney Tunes cartoons: the writers loved puns, as I do.Like Moses in the brush, Bugs is picked up by a woman (in this case, gorilla) who is thrilled at the prospect of caring for a new "baby."This cartoon, which is part of the Golden Collection Volume Two, shows Bugs' "soft spot," as he puts it: dames crying, so if the female thinks he's hers, well, to keep her from crying any more, Bugs "goes along with the gag." What ensues is mostly funny, from the sight gags - Bugs in a pink baby outfit, and then pretending to be an ape - to his battles with the father ape "Gruesome." The only lame part was the ending. Actually, I enjoyed the fabulous artwork in here with amazing jungle drawings, best of all, along with the puns in the beginning.

Lee Eisenberg A female gorilla is depressed that she and her husband, Gruesome, haven't had a child. When Gruesome growls at her, she runs away crying and...you guessed it! She finds Bugs Bunny. When she takes him home, Gruesome decides to take Bugs for a walk, but then it turns out that the big guy wants to torment him. Naturally, Bugs has his own plans.I think that my favorite scene was when Bugs shakes a coconut out of a tree, and it falls on Gruesome like a football helmet. No matter what, you can always count on that "scwewy wabbit" to do something great. Maybe it was Mel Blanc's voices or maybe it was something else (I would assume that it was the former), but those old Looney Tunes cartoons were always the best.
