Reviews
BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Julia Arsenault (ja_kitty_71) This is another great Bugs Bunny cartoon directed by Bob McKimson along with "Acrobatty Bunny" from 1946, "Hurdy-Gurdy Hare" from the same year this short is made in - 1950, "Rabbit's Kin" from 1952 with Stan Freberg again as Pete Puma this time; "Wet Hare" from 1962.Mel Blanc & Stan Freberg were great as the two hillbilly brothers Curt & Pumpkinhead Martin. Not to be mean, but a hillbilly's speech impediment is funny to me. The best scene in this cartoon, is the square dance scene where Bugs makes up a hilarious square ditty :"Whomp him low! and Whomp him high! stick your finger in his eye!" Something like that. So anyway I really love this cartoon.
rbverhoef 'Hillbilly Hare' is a Bugs Bunny cartoon where Bugs is on vacation in the Ozarks. He meets two hillbillies, not that smart, with long beards. They are brothers and looking for some animals to shoot. Of course Bugs talks a lot before the two hillbillies will take a shot at him and of course he will not be the one who gets shot. It is the usual stuff here.The second part though is terrific. Bugs dresses up as a lady and asks the two brothers for a dance. The lyrics tell the dancing characters what to do so at one moment Bugs pulls the plug from the juke-box and takes over the singing. Now the lyrics make the two hillbillies do some crazy stuff which is pretty funny. The song is very good too, I must admit!
TheOtherFool Banned cartoon this time takes a swing at those southern red-neck hill- billies, who talk funny and aren't too clever.Bugs is being chased by two of these hill-billies, who happen to be brothers and are looking for some animals to kill.The first part of this short film is nothing special, but in the second part things all burst out into a song, sung in part by Bugs and it involves a great dance by the three characters. When Bugs takes over the song he makes the hill-billies do these crazy things like dancing with pigs and stuff like that. Very good song, check it out!Great fun, in particular in it's second part: 7/10.
Robert Reynolds This is a delightful cartoon, with hilarious dialogue moreso than visual gags. The squaredance scene alone is worth the price of admission, but my absolute favorite line, one that just busts me up every time. Bugs says to one of the Martins, "And who might you be?" to which his response is, "I might be Teddy Rooseyvelt, but I ain't!" So sue me! I think it's a funny line! Highly recommended.
