Wow! Such a good movie.

Intense, gripping, stylish and poignant

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

In this short film which came out briefly after World War II, Bugs goes against an evil scientist (where did he go in the end) and his giant, furry, sneaker-wearing monster. The director is Chuck Jones as always and the voice acting is Mel Blanc of course. Writer isn't Michael Maltese this time, it's Tedd Pierce. Jokes in here include manicure, a rabbit hiding in a lamp, a mechanical female rabbit, a painting and a Peter Lorre reference I would not have recognized if I hadn't read it in the credits. All in all, I enjoyed this short film and like the two antagonists. Quite a shame they do not appear in more of these 7-minute cartoons. Still, I wouldn't say it is one of the best Warner Bros. cartoons. Nonetheless, recommended.

What a wonderful Bugs Bunny cartoon! Apart from great production values and writing, this movie marks the first appearance of the cute giant orange hairy monster that will later appear in other Warner cartoons.Bugs is in an old creepy castle when he realizes that the crazy doctor (clearly patterned after Peter Lorre) is trying to kill him for his evil experiments. Bugs fleas and the doctor unleashes his secret weapon--a giant hairy orange monster wearing tennis shoes! He's really awfully cute, though also quite intent on capturing Bugs. Well, Bugs responds by using his cleverness to beat the monster and escape. A wonderful and funny cartoon. It especially excels when it breaks through the fourth wall--and involves the audience!If you liked this cartoon, try watching WATER, WATER, EVERY HARE (1952)--a follow-up to this movie.

I love the big hairy monster guy. He might not have any arms but you just want to hug him, even tho he won't hug back. The Doctor guy who owns him however, HE is scary. With a grotesquely over-sized head and massive eyes he makes Stewie Griffin from Family Guy look normal.There's always some insane reason for Bugs Bunny to wander into his castle and get involved in a chase and that's exactly what happens. However, in the end Bugs and the monster become pals and the evil doctor gets what he deserves. It's been done before and this cartoon is only one version of this same old plot but it's still very funny as anything with Bugs Bunny is. Daffy is still my fave tho.

Bugs Bunny is enticed out of his home by a mechanical girl robot, which he then follows into the castle of a mad scientist. Trapped in the castle, the scientist lets his monster out to feed, leading to a chase around the castle.Just before I watched this short I had the pleasure of seeing `Birth of A Notion'. Both cartoons have a character based on actor Peter Lorre. `Birth' has great animation whereas here that character is awful and the voice work is poor too. This is one example of it, but the animation here is quite poor – Bugs looks basic and the monster itself is about as easy to draw a creation as you could imagine! Happily this doesn't feed through the whole cartoon in a bad way. The material is better than the animation and it is actually quite funny.Bugs may look average but he does his usual stuff well here. The scientist character is poor and is happily not used very well, but the monster needed to be good and, sadly, isn't at all. It's just like having a ginger haystack in the movie – and it's never given more personality than that either!Overall this cartoon lacks imagination and spark. It's lack of real quality can be best seen in the animation but happily it doesn't ruin the whole thing. It may only be average but it is still Bugs Bunny and it is still pretty amusing.
