Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Nonureva Really Surprised!
Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
TheLittleSongbird The cartoon does start off slowly, and the secondary characters are a little clichéd, especially the Irish cop. But it is very clever and funny, with Bugs excellent as usual and the gangster a nice little addition. Coupled with beautiful artwork, a good script, some funny gags-especially the oven gag- and nice music this really is worth seeing especially to see how Bugs outwits the thugs. By the way, the title of the short is a very effective touch, and Mel Blanc is stellar yet again.Overall, while a little slow and clichéd, this is clever and funny and compensated by the usual ingredients that make these cartoons so enjoyable. 8/10 Bethany Cox
tavm Bugs goes to the bank to get a carrot among many in his deposit box. At the same time, Rocky has robbed it and is about to get in his car with Mugsy as the driver when Bugs comes in first mistaking it for a taxi. When Rocky comes in with his bags of money, the rabbit at first thinks it's laundry. He wises up and attempts to call the police at a nearby gas station but is caught by Mugsy before he can complete it. It all results in one of the funniest police captures in cartoon history! This was one of my favorites as a little kid and seeing it today on The Looney Tunes Golden Collection, Vol. 1 brought back great memories of watching this on "Bugs Bunny and Friends" which aired every afternoon at 3:30 pm central time on WRBT-TV, Baton Rouge, La. (It's now WVLA). Kudos once again to Friz Freling.
movieman_kev Gangsters Rocky and Mugsy are first introduced in the short that has Bugs Bunny getting into the getaway car of the duo by accident when he mistakes it for a cab. The short is pretty funny, yet Bugs isn't really in the top of his form here. Still it's worth watching and contains a highly quotable line or two. The ending is a tad on the weak side however. It's still the best of the Rocky and Mugsy shorts (they were in two others I believe, but don't quote me on that). This animated short can be found on disc 4 of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 1.My Grade: B-
emasterslake This is one of the best Rocky and Mugsy Cartoons. The first of the 3 known Looney Tunes.This is Mugsy's first Debut. While Rocky appeared in 2 earlier Looney Tunes before this one.First was one with Daffy and a Golden Egg.And the other involves Tweety and Slyvester.They all have Bugs Bunny in them.This Looney Tune is very memorable. Has a lot of gags.And the best part is one involving a Stove.This is recommended to all the Bugs Bunny fans.Like one of the top 20 Looney Tunes that exist.
