... View MoreThere is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
... View MoreIt's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
... View MoreThe Wabbit Who Came to Supper by all means is not my favourite Looney Tunes cartoon but I did find it very entertaining. The cartoon does start off slow and I too found the closing gag on the weak side, I just found it abrupt. However, the animation is great especially on DVD, where the colours are so lush and the interiors of Elmer's house really nicely done. The only minor disappointment animation-wise is that Bugs occasionally looks odd. The music as always from Carl Stalling is energetic and quirky, the dialogue is witty and funny and the sight gags are clever especially the premature New Year gag. I also liked it when Elmer had Bugs in his arms singing to him and when Bugs tries to pettily dupe him out of a nickel. Bugs is great fun, rascally yet likable, while Elmer while dim-witted is really quite endearing. Mel Blanc and Arthur Q. Bryan once again are stellar with the voice work. The story isn't exactly original, but it is good, and overall, this cartoon is entertaining. 8/10 Bethany Cox
... View MoreWhen Elmer Fudd's Uncle Louie bequeaths him 3 million dollars on the condition that he doesn't hurt any living creatures, Bugs Bunny exploit's the situation by moving into his house and taking over his life. Friz Freleng's 'The Wabbit Who Came to Supper' is a fun take on a classic, much used storyline which was probably best realised in the Tom and Jerry classic 'The Million Dollar Cat'. Freleng's take on the tale is also very fine, overcoming the odd pacing problems with some very funny moments. My favourite bit is Bugs's petty duping of Elmer out of a nickel. Also notable is the famous premature New Year routine and the early take on the "Don't go down there, it's dark" gag (perfected in 'Hair Raising Hare'). This is a very early Bugs Bunny cartoon and you can occasionally tell by the odd look of the characters. Aside from the obese version of Elmer (an early experiment that was quickly abandoned), Bugs occasionally looks extremely weird, never more so than in the scene when he examines his teeth in a mirror. Nevertheless, it's a joy to watch Bugs and Elmer alternately turn the tables on each other resulting in a great climactic chase. The closing gag is a little weak but by that time 'The Wabbit Who Came to Supper' has done more than enough to endear itself to the viewer. While it falls short of classic, 'The Wabbit Who Came to Supper' never fails to entertain with its fast paced, well-timed antics.

... View MoreBugs Bunny found his best antagonist in Elmer Fudd and "Wabbit Who Came to Supper" is one of my favorites. This idea was revisited with Yosemite Sam, and it still is quite funny. As with most Looney Tunes, they remain funny no matter how many times you watch them. Since this is not as good as the Barber of Seville one (the name escapes me, although I commented on it earlier), I gave this an 8.L.R.
