Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
mirosuionitsaki2 This isn't a cartoon you will find in a fairy tale book. This is Duck Dodgers, also known as Daffy Duck, when he is not a hero. Cut the crap, Duck Dodgers, everyone knows your secret identity! Duck Dodgers and Porky the Pig are on the search of a shaving cream atom known as Illudium Phosdex. Unfortunately, while searching on Planet X, an alien wants to get it first! Will Duck Dodgers get the Illudium Phosdex before the alien? The answer is, well. The whole planet destroys leaving only a little floating ball in space while everyone stands on it holding each other on the shoulders, trying not to fall off. Wonder why's that when before the planet seemed to have gravity because they could simply walk on the Planet and run away.I think this is a parody of the Planet X Jason Martell discussed about. Planet X is a planet claimed by some people to be a planet in our solar system we haven't found yet. X, I think, being a variable. It symbolizes a missing planet name, I think.I recommend this cartoon for Human children.
ccthemovieman-1 "No one knows his way around outer space like Duck Dodgers," proclaims Dafffy as he given the assignment to find a valuable material on Planet X (wherever that is, because they don't know here, either!).This parody of "Buck Rodgers" is a hoot to view, right from the start with the wild 24th century look to it and exaggerations of the future. The color in this cartoon is absolutely bold and brilliant.Duck's "eager young space cadet" is Porky Pig, who calls Daffy "Your Heroship, Sir!" Although our "hero" wants to take credit, it's the little assistant who points to way to Planet X. Upon arrive, "Dodger" plants a flag and proclaims in belong to Earth. A second later, we see the arrival of Marvin the Martian, who claims it for his planet!!!There's a lot more of this craziness, making this one of the better Daffy cartoons. This animated short is very, very entertaining. Cartoon historians label this as one of Daffy Duck's all-time best, and who's to argue?
bob the moo When the earth's supplies of the shaving foam atom run low, the scientific community turns to Duck Dodgers, the space travelling adventurer, to seek out a new supply. Dodgers travels to the unexplored planet X, rich in the atom, to claim it for earth; however a Martian is also on the planet to claim it for Mars. A battle ensues.For many people this is Daffy's best cartoon; it certainly seems to have stuck in many peoples' childhood memories, mine included. The plot spoofs the Buck Rodgers series of the period reasonably well and sees Daffy going to planet X and battling Marvin with a variety of funny weapons. It starts a little slowly but gets better when Marvin appears. The gags may not be brilliant but they have a certain imagination and energy to them that make it all work pretty well.I much prefer Daffy in his `crazy duck' personae rather than his later work, which is probably why I only enjoyed this film rather than loved it. Here he seems quite restrained and it is only occasionally when his character shines through the character of Dodgers. Porky has little to do but is reasonably amusing in his minor role, but it is Marvin that gives the best support in his rather one-dimensional role.It will stick in my mind because it is such a good little spoof but it isn't as good as perhaps it has been remembered. On top of that, I didn't see any of the Daffy I really love and that was a problem for me.
Kalaman Easily one of Chuck Jones and WB's top five best cartoons, "Duck Dodgers" is still hilarious and inventive after 50 years. Daffy Duck, always fun to watch, and his companion Porky have to travel to Planet X to discover a precious atom. They have to compete with the Marvin the Martian for the discovery of the atom and the planet. I have to agree with the below user-comment that the opening scenes are breathtakingly surreal and mind-blowing. The cartoon is best appreciated if you seen the other Looney Tunes starring Daffy Duck and Porky. A classic.
