Titi et le Tour du monde en 80 chats

I will start off saying I really wanted to like this film. It sounded really promising, with a decent voice cast and Tweety, who while I prefer other toons I actually like. It was just the matter of a good story and script- sadly while Tweety's High Flying Adventure had its good moments there were some departments where it was sorely lacking.

ANIMATION: I am not going to lie and say it is perfect, because it is not. What I will say is that I have seen a lot worse, but I have also seen better. It lacks the sophisticated and beautiful backgrounds of those wonderful Looney Tunes cartoons made during the 40s-60s, but some of the backgrounds here did have a sense of colour and vibrancy particularly the London watercolours. Tweety's animation is okay, as is Sylvester's, though Granny especially looks deflated.

MUSIC: The best way to describe the music here is pleasant but forgettable. By all means children will lap it up, but adults and fans of the original cartoons are likely not to be as impressed. The lyrics are cute though and the melodies singable, but forgettable after a few days. "The Best Thing You Can Win Is A Friend" is surprisingly touching though.

STORY: I think this was the biggest failing here. Now I liked the idea, but the story structure was too episodic. There are parts where either little happens or there is a lot happening. Pacing will come under this as well, because there are parts that drag quite badly, but some of Tweety's adventures are rushed and sometimes underdeveloped and unexplained.

LENGTH: The film is too short, because of that we don't empathise with the characters that much.

SCRIPT: Kids like with the music will appreciate it, but being a teenage fan of the original cartoons, I missed the razor-sharp dialogue and the witty exchanges. There are one or two gags that are mildly interesting but somehow it didn't feel the same.

CHARACTERS: I love the Looney Tunes characters in general, but without the script and story being as good as it could've been, they felt somewhat stranded. I like Tweety a lot, I think he is cute, but as a lead even I have to admit he is pretty bland. Bugs and Daffy are much stronger lead characters, and some of my favourite Looney Tunes cartoons(ie. What's Opera Doc and Duck Amuck) have them in. It really is fun seeing these zany characters here, but that's the problem, they aren't zany enough, and there are some scenes where there are two characters put together and it doesn't work. Taz works better with Bugs, who can manipulate him easily, than with Sylvester, who works better as the toon who gave the laughs. Same with him and Yosemite Sam together. Plus I don't think the contemporary references worked well either, it felt quite jarring to be honest with you. Awooga, Tweety's girlfriend, is very cute and beautiful on the other hand.

VOICES: Pretty decent. June Foray is delightful as Granny, then again Foray is a brilliant voice actress who can act anything and do it well. Jeff Bennett does well, as does Jim Cummings, however Joe Alaskey was a disappointment. Don't get me wrong, Alaskey is a great voice actor, but he was over-used. If the producers had given him less to do, he wouldn't have felt so overwhelmed. And I have to confess, sorry, I miss Mel Blanc's fiery delivery that made the original cartoons so enjoyable.

OVERALL: Cute for kids, and pleasant to watch, but too rushed, episodic and bland to be any more than that. 4/10 Bethany Cox

I love this movie also the parts where Awoogah becomes an alarm clock. In the trailer, when the farm animals are cheering, I could only hear Miss Prissy saying "Go, Tweety!" and it sounded like Granny and Clarabelle Cow from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse (2006-2016). I believe June Foray or April Winchell voiced Miss Prissy in this movie because June Foray voiced Lucifer, Karen from Frosty the Snowman (1969), Cindy Lou Who, and Granny from 1955-2014 and April Winchell voiced Clarabelle Cow in Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Terk in The Legend of Tarzan. I believe April Winchell played Miss Prissy or maybe...June Foray.

Tweety's High-Flying Adventure (2000) is a straight-to-video Looney Tunes movie with Tweety Bird and Sylvester and it is the worst Looney Tunes movie I've watched so far.

Positives for Tweety's High-Flying Adventure (2000): Tweety and Sylvester are pretty good as the main characters. The character of Aoogah is kind of interesting with her loud scream. The slapstick humor is decent enough here. And finally, the movie is short and gets to the point very quickly.

Negatives for Tweety's High-Flying Adventure (2000): This movie has the weakest and most pointless story for an Looney Tunes movie and it is boring. I didn't care about the romance between Tweety and Aoogah. The subplot with the children's park felt tacked on. The animation for the various cities and locations looks poopy. And finally, the movie feels like it was a short that was stretched out.

Overall, Tweety's High-Flying Adventure (2000) is the worst Looney Tunes movie I've watched.

I have to admit, while this movie has bland animation and plotholes, I found this movie somewhat enjoyable. It is a breath of fresh air for Tweety to have his own movie when usually it's Bugs or Daffy that has their own movie. The songs were pretty good, the relationship between Tweety and Awoogah was surprisingly heartwarming, and Sylvester's determination to catch Tweety and the difficulties that came were amusing. The biggest flaw of this movie is that Tweety's adventures felt too rushed from going to Paris, Rome, Egypt, Tibet and to Australia all in less than 80 days and somehow getting the paw prints from all those cats which doesn't seem feasible. It also baffles me how Sylvester could be in all those places and knew where Tweety was going at all times. It also felt like the characters didn't get any development or enough screentime. One character comes and the other goes, like with Taz and Sam. Overall, this is a forgotten Looney Tunes movie that is enjoyable for certain audiences.

As another reviewer noted - with the jumbled cities in the different countries. This story missed a great teaching lesson to children on geography. It actually hinders a child's geographical knowledge. A real shame. The story skipped along too fast on more interesting scenarios in favor of less interesting ones that it seemed to drag on. The script wasn't sharp and up to feature length standards. So is more suitable for kids than adults.

I found it very annoying that so many of the flying scenes and even scenes on the ground showed Tweety without his passport which had to be with him at all times to have it stamped by the consul representative and of course the required 80 cat paw signatures. Terrible continuity on that. The passport appeared and disappeared at will so many times. Tweety just wasn't all that character driven - we didn't' see him flex his acting muscles as he does in his better cartoons. I'm an adult fan of animation. I would not view this a second time, barely held some of my interest.
