Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Alistair Olson After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . into a Real Life witch's oven, Warner Bros. dressed up Bugs Bunny in drag as Gretl, Brunnhilde, or some other fairy tale German chick to cavort in the Black Forest, playing footsie with top-ranking Nazi Hermann Goering. After joking around with "Fatso" Goering's take on Sigfried, Bugs decides to add a Josef Stalin impression to his Stylings on Adolph Hitler, so that all the European Front's Villains-in-Chief are covered during HERR MEETS HARE. Warner Bros.' Looney Tunes Animation Division taught America that there's always a silver lining in even the grimmest of situations. Following in Bugs Bunny's paw steps, a New York City-area mattress store recently ran a TV ad for its September 11 Fifteenth Anniversary Sale featuring two "towers" of mattresses toppling down! Not to be outdone, a European-raised Quarterback-of-Color has responded to the spate of Cop Killings in places such as Dallas and Baton Rouge by initiating a post-Olympics gymnastics event in which he and many of his athletic peer group compete to see who can contort themselves in the most disrespectful manner as our Star Spangled Tribute Hymn to the World War Two KIA's, space shuttle, and 9-11 victims is played. Surely Bugs Bunny would die laughing to see THAT!

TheLittleSongbird Not one of my favourite Looney Tunes and Bugs Bunny cartoons by all means, with some of the material being of the time (also prefer cartoons with a wittier touch rather than a propaganda touch) and younger audiences may find some of 'Herr Meets Hare' goes over their heads or a touch heavy-handed.That's understandable, because the references that 'Herr Meets Hare' has are less than subtle. Again though this is part of the fun (and to be honest the people that are referenced are as far from subtle as one can possibly get), and the cartoon did have balls for doing this when World War II was still very much happening, with the Nazis still terrorising innocent people and Hitler still in power.'Herr Meets Hare' has beautiful animation, colourful, meticulously detailed, rich and very smooth and fluid. It's lusciously and energetically scored too, and it was great to hear the Venusberg theme from Wagner's 'Tannhauser', pre-dating one of the greatest cartoons in history 'What's Opera Doc' which used the same music to iconic and even more memorable effect. The music not only adds so much but enhances the action too.While not as hysterical as other Looney Tunes efforts, the dialogue is fresh and witty and the gags are no less than very funny, the best bits hilarious. The vulture and the scene with Hitler do raise some quite big laughs, but even funnier are Bugs' brilliant if obvious disguises (always amazing that his opponents nearly always fall for them so easily), especially the Hitler and Brunnhilde guises.Bugs leads the cartoon brilliantly, such a charismatic and funny character, and Goehring is a very worthy and effective opponent. Mel Blanc does impeccably as ever with the vocals, is there anything this enviously talented man cannot do? All in all, very entertaining cartoon if not one of my favourites. 8/10 Bethany Cox

slymusic Directed by Friz Freleng, "Herr Meets Hare" is a fine Bugs Bunny cartoon released at the tail end of World War II. Specifically, this cartoon makes a hilarious spoof of Field Marshal Hermann Goering, nicknamed "Fatso" in this film. Fatso is the epitome of mental retardation as he pursues Bugs Bunny in the Black Forest.My favorite moments from "Herr Meets Hare" include the following (DO NOT read any further if you have not yet seen this cartoon). I love Bugs' Hitler disguise and mock German dialect as he gives Goering a verbal dressing-down and rips off all his medals. Bugs is also really funny with his Stalin disguise at the very end of the cartoon. AND watch for Bugs' Wagnerian Brunhilda disguise (predating "What's Opera, Doc?" [1957]) and his subsequent dance with Goering (as Siegfried)."Herr Meets Hare" was supposedly unseen from the time of its theatrical release until the time it was released on DVD (the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 6 Disc 2). But unless my memory deceives me, I DO recollect seeing this cartoon on TV during my high school days (early 1990s), because I distinctly remember Bugs Bunny's lame Hitler disguise. Maybe he paraded as Hitler in other cartoons besides this one.

Lee Eisenberg In one of the many WWII-themed Looney Tunes cartoons, Bugs Bunny misses that left turn at Albuquerque for the first time and ends up in the Black Forest, where he meets Nazi official Hermann Goering. One scene in particular in "Herr Meets Hare" reminded me of Charlie Chaplin's "The Great Dictator", where Bugs starts ripping Goering's clothes off. But probably the most fascinating scene is when Bugs rides in dressed as Brunhilde, as he later would in his all-time masterpiece "What's Opera, Doc?". As for the end...well, I assumed that Bugs was going to pull something, but I didn't predict that one! I just always love how they poke fun at the Nazis, in this case making Hitler say "Heil me!". Bugs Bunny is just the greatest.
