The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie

When I heard there was a horror-comedy involving Looney Tunes and an alien invasion, I thought it would be either brilliant or a total mess. Luckily, it turned out to be the former. This film is wild, ridiculous, and surprisingly terrifying. Watching Daffy Duck and Porky Pig try to save the Earth from mind-controlling bubblegum was both hilarious and genuinely unsettling. There were scenes where the body-horror elements made me squirm, especially when characters turned into alien zombies. What impressed me was how well it balanced humor with horror-it never felt too silly or too dark. It's a clever homage to 80s horror classics while still being unmistakably Looney Tunes. Honestly, it's one of the weirdest and most creative films I've seen in a while.

I really liked the movie. The story is a bit, well, crazy, but what else would you expect from the Looney Tunes, but Daffy Duck and Porky Pig works as a movie. However, I have to say that the action was very exaggerated. Sure, we're talking about the Looney Tunes here, especially Daffy Duck, but still. Then the joke fell a bit short for me. There were some funny moments, no question, but this appropriate wit and humor, that defines the Looney Tunes, was either missing or rare. But otherwise I can recommend the movie for an hand drawn animated movie in modern times.

This review comes from Germany, where the movie has already released.

I went and saw this in theaters expecting it to be good, it ended up being GREAT! The jokes had me laughing it up, the animation is great as it is nearly 100% hand drawn meaning lots of hard work went into it! And it shows. The story is great despite what you might think from looking at it, it ends up using the characters to their near fullest and it works amazingly and surprisingly well.

The music, and the sounds are well made, even better than most movies on streaming. Some jokes even some of us adults can enjoy! If you are just looking for a great movie to watch, this movie is just right, especially if you're a Looney Tunes fan. This movie is great for both Adults and even Children. Please do watch, and remember... Animation, is not just for kids!

I thought this was great, I loved being able to see a looney tunes movie in 2025! Don't stop with this idea, pump it out for all it's worth! Many of us still love looney toones! I loved how much adult humor there was, I was busting up laughing. Can't really be negative about the plot, because you have to know what you're watching. It was charming and cute and they are everything you remember. I went in not sure howbi would feel, and i left with a big smile on my face. Admittedly I went to paddington in peru after this movie, and that movie probably seemed worse to me because this was so great.

Watched at AMC on 3-18-2025.

Feels like a good toe-dip back into theatrical 2D animation. It's no blockbuster but it's a nice looking 2D animated movie in theaters in 2025. I'll take it. Good voices, good and great animation, beautiful painted backgrounds, fun music and sight gags that call back to classic Looney Tunes...The story is a little strange and feels a tad restricted, but thems the ropes. Lotta talented names in the credits so it was good to see that people got work. Kids will enjoy the colors, low brow humor and characters while adults will enjoy most of those three things but also the nostalgia and artistry on all fronts that went into making this. Long live 2D animation!
