Absolutely brilliant

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Personally I like the Sylvester and Tweety cartoons, though if I were honest I prefer those of Bugs and Daffy. Tweety and the Beanstalk is for me one of their better cartoons, along with Hyde and Go Tweet. It is basically a fun little twist on the timeless Jack and the Beanstalk tale, with a size reversal between Sylvester and Tweety. The animation is crisp and colourful, while the music is bright and lively. Both Tweety and the Giant have some great dialogue, my favourite was the one in the title of this review, while some of the cartoon revolves around Sylvester's ingenious(or not so ingenious) traps to capture Tweety. Tweety is good here, while Sylvester and the Giant are even better, and Mel Blanc is excellent once again. Overall, simply great. 10/10 Bethany Cox

"Tweety and the Beanstalk", directed by Friz Freleng, is a fast & funny Tweety/Sylvester cartoon in which the slobbering feline finds himself as the main character in the familiar Jack & the Beanstalk story. Thus, Sylvester is tiny, even tinier than Tweety! "I tawt I taw a itty bitty putty tat!" My favorite moments from this cartoon: I love the way Tweety says, "Ooh, dat itty bitty putty tat, he up to no dood!" as Sylvester unscrews the bottom of Tweety's birdcage and gets flattened. I also laugh at Tweety's Asian stereotype at the very end; yes, I know it's wrong, but it's very funny.You can catch "Tweety and the Beanstalk", among numerous other Looney Tunes fairy tales, on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 5 Disc 2.

Maybe I am in the minority here, but I thought this Tweety-Sylvester cartoon was terrific. It was very inventive and reminded of a good Roadrunner cartoon. Here, Sylvester uses his wits to come up with some really good plans to get Tweety but - like the coyote who never could get the Roadrunner - always comes up short.That's the angle of the story, too: "short." Sylvester climbs Jack's giant beanstalk and winds up somewhere way up in the clouds in a magic kingdom and more specifically, in a huge castle where everything is gigantic compared to him. Tweety is there and it is he who incorporates some of the words in the subject head here when he says, "I tawt I saw a little itty, bitty puddytat!" The rest of the cartoon is Sylvester coming up with ingenious plans to get the giant (to him) bird and then, at the end, battling the human "Giant."Good stuff and very clever material.

For the most part this is fairly typical Sylvester and Tweety material except that there's "acres and acres of giant tweetybird". While not as clever as Bugs and Daffy in "Beanstalk Bunny", when Sylvester's attempts to get Tweety finally arouse the giant, he enters with one of my all-time favorite lines: "fee fi fo fat, I tought I taw a puddy tat".
