Synopsis

Wile E. Coyote unsuccessfully chases the Road Runner using such contrivances as a rifle, a steel plate, a dynamite stick on an extending metal pulley, a painting of a collapsed bridge (which the Coyote falls into while Road Runner passes right through), and a jet motor.

Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
MartinHafer I don't have any idea why, but this cartoon can be found on archive.org for free download and is listed as a 'banned cartoon'. However, after viewing it, I saw absolutely nothing potentially offensive about it and think this is a mistake. It's yet another brilliant Roadrunner cartoon from Chuck Jones--and the quality is as good you can get. While it would be pointless to comment on the plot at any length (you just need to see it), the Coyote once again tries many different Acme products in order to catch that darned bird--and, as usual, to no effect other than beating the tar out of poor Wiley Coyote! You'll see him don a bat-man outfit, ride a jet engine as well as paint a scene with the bridge being out (with predictable but very enjoyable results). The bottom line is that this film shows the characters once they've hit their stride--clever and funny all the way. I especially enjoyed the cute ending. Well worth seeing and you have to be dead no to enjoy this one.
DaniGirl1969 Another very funny and highly creative entry in the Road Runner series, in which even the opening credits are a hazard to Coyote. They're carried on the side of a truck which mows him down in the opening scene! And Wile E's day doesn't get any better, as he's blown up by an exhausted bullet, flattened by a flying boulder and falls into a chasm that was part of a picture he himself painted! Of course, there are the usual malfunctioning gadgets that the poor canine arms himself with, such as a telescoping arm that's supposed to deliver dynamite to Road Runner but instead slams the coyote into a rock wall, and delivers the explosive to him instead.. and the detonator plunger that refuses to go down while Road Runner is crossing the booby-trapped bridge -- but naturally it slides down all by itself once you-know-who tries to cross in pursuit. But "Gee Whiz-z-z-z-z" is best known for the Acme product that finally DOES work exactly as advertised: the Acme Bat-man Outfit!! After a few frantic moments, Coyote actually manages to soar majestically through the air! But Acme can't be held responsible for operator error! Likewise the Acme Jet Motor also works perfectly, until the silly coyote turns it off after he soars off the edge of another cliff. Of course, the Laws of Cartoon Physics say he won't fall as long as no one draws his attention to the fact that he's now floating high above a deep deep canyon (now who do you suppose would do that? hehehe) A wonderful cartoon -- with the cartoonist finally cutting him a break at the very end!
Lee Eisenberg More of Wile E. Coyote - aka Eatius Birdius - trying unsuccessfully to catch Road Runner - aka Delicius Delicius. Among his Acme devices are a Batman suit, a rocket, and a fake destroyed bridge. Sure enough, they all backfire on him. I guess that "Gee Whiz-z-z-z-z-z-z" doesn't really add anything new; although, they occasionally have Road Runner quickly turn around while Wile E. keeps zooming straight ahead...most likely off of a cliff.So, even if there's nothing new here, it's always great to see what happens to Wile E. Among other things, it shows that you don't need words to be funny. And it shows that the classic cartoons are the gold standard (the more recent Looney Tunes cartoons just can't reach the quality set by their forbears). So check it out. You're sure to like it.
movieman_kev In this, the eighth pairing of Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner, the highly memorable gag of the batman type suit was first shown. And in a delightful change of the expected the crafty coyote paints a bridge, but this time it's a torn down bridge and the Road Runner goes through the painting, Wile E. is the one to go into it this time around. And as always ANY short with Wile E. in it is so VERY much worth watching, as he's one of my absolute favorite cartoon personalities of all time. This animated short can be seen on Disc 2 of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 2. This cartoon also has an optional music only track.My Grade: A-
