Avis à la une
This time around Bugs is taking it easy in the city as Rabbit Season (DUCK SEASON!) is kicking off in the country. He hails a taxi to go for a cruise but ends up in the backseat of Rocky's getaway car.
Seconds later, Rocky has robbed a bank and is using Bugs as a hostage. Bugs a hostage? Puh-lease! He's got more wits and cunning in his baby finger than both Rocky and Mugsy together.
Very clever hijinks follow with a very funny ending.
My Grade: B-
It's just always great how the Looney Tunes cartoons played off of the popular culture of their era. Rocky was probably a parody of James Cagney, and Mugsy just seems to be a big excuse to be dimwitted. Anyway, it's a really funny cartoon, even if we have to wait a little while until Bugs does his usual stuff.
Hey! Wouldn't you know it!..... After doing his business at the bank, Bugs Bunny decides to hail a cab. And, as it turns out, he ends up taking a thrill-ride with the likes of little Mister Big-Ego, Rocky, and his pea-brained chauffeur/sidekick, Mugsy.
Well - Right in character, Bugs certainly knows just how to handle the likes of these 2 felonious thugs. Yep. He sure does.
And, after all is said and done - It's Bugs who ends up being the one who, literally, takes these 2-bit crooks for a royal ride that comes to a hilarious finale (that's a real heated gasser). Indeed.
Enjoyably entertaining - 1954's "Bugs And Thugs" was skillfully directed by popular Warner Bros.' animator, Friz Freleng.
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesNear the end of the film, Bugs' office has a sign that says "-Member- Detective Guild, Local 839". Local 839 of the IATSE was the Animation Guild, whose members made the cartoon.
- GaffesWhen Bugs gets a carrot out of his safe deposit box, there are no keys involved - and the box only has one slot for a key. Usually two keys are required - one held by the bank, and one held by the renter of the box, for security.
