With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- A natural pick for anyone who enjoys a story that folds back on itself and people who need a good giggle. Pay attention early: the time-bending pays off later.
- The mood
- Light and funny, feel-good.
- The pace
- Paced for all ages, at 8 min. It jumps around in time, so stay with it.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1944: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
Failed hunter Elmer Fudd laments that he's never able to catch the rabbit (Bugs Bunny); just then a bolt of lightning strikes, and the voice of God takes him through a flash-forward to the year 2000. Elmer and Bugs, now both elderly, look back to when they first met as babies.
