Diagonaldi Very well executed

Borgarkeri A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Yazmin Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

aefrench I just recently saw this Bugs Bunny cartoon, and it was one I actually had not seen before. This was part of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection DVD, and it is one of my favorite cartoons in the collection so far.Bugs is the conductor for a concert, and while trying to lead the orchestra, he deals with a plethora of distractions. There are some excellent sight gags throughout the cartoon's duration. For example, Bugs's ears are used to conduct the orchestra, among other things. What's more, there are no voice characterizations in this cartoon. Bugs is completely silent, so there are no one-liners from him. However, the sight gags provide a lot of laughs. This is a good cartoon. Catch it.

Michael_Elliott Baton Bunny (1959) ** (out of 4) This here has always been one of my least favorite Bugs Bunny cartoons but you can't expect anyone to bat a thousand. This time out Bugs is the guest conductor of the Warner Brothers Symphony Orchestra where he will be doing "Morning, Noon and Night in Vienna by Franz Von Suppe". There's not a single line of dialogue spoken in the film, which really wouldn't have been a problem had the action been better than it is. In all reality this is just a short for the ears as most of the visual gags are rather tiresome and none of them get any laughs. The bit with the fly doesn't work and this here seems to be the biggest attempt at humor. The music itself isn't too bad but in the end this is an interesting idea that just doesn't work.

movieman_kev Bugs Bunny is conducting an orchastra while contending with a pesky fly. That's the whole plot right there. And compared to other music-based Looney Tunes cartoons, this one can't help to come up quite a bit short.Pardon the pun, of course. But as I said in ealier review even mediocre Looney Tunes is still great compared to the slop we get in the present days. And as such I did still enjoy it, just not as much as usual. Hey, I just call them like I see them. Would you really want me any other way? I think not.This cartoon is on Disk 3 of the "Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 1" It also has a music-only trackMy Grade: C-

Akbar Shahzad (rapt0r_claw-1) This is an interesting and unique Bugs Bunny short, with nothing but visual gags throughout. However, despite my Looney Tunes bias, I shall admit that Cat Concerto, a Tom and Jerry cartoon, used a similar premise about thirteen years prior. You could be wondering whether Bugs could be funny without words, but this proves all the sceptics wrong! The hilarious methods that Bugs uses to convey the notes to his musicians (who obviously and miraculously know how to interpret the antics of this mad rabbit, since the musical score is very good) never get old. The cartoon illustrates a surreal Western story when Bugs conducts in a flurry, and the fly that annoys him is fantastic! Bugs finally cracks in the end, and you see he can be just as hot-headed as Daffy Duck. This sets the standard for how a conductor/musician cartoon should be. Good to see on VHS and DVD. Highly Recommended.
