SPACE JAM: A NEW LEGACY is pretty much what you'd expect for a film of this kind: it's little more than a commercial for Warner Bros. Property. At the very least it's still superior to the awful RALPH WRECKS THE INTERNET, although that isn't saying much. Still, this film does have its assets. The concept of being trapped in some kind of virtual service world gives the film some vibes of the likes of TRON and even SWORD ART ONLINE. But of course the real highlight are the 2D animated sequences. Bugs Bunny and his co-stars are always a pleasure, and while the animation here lacks some of the 3D shading in places, these scenes are still a delight, particularly in sequences like a chase through DC City and a MATRIX scene. That said the film did lose me a bit in its last hour when the Looney Tunes turn into CG characters (in all fairness, though, at least there is context to it). Going in with low expectations I liked the movie more than I expected to, but it can't be elevated to anything other than mediocre at best. Even so, the audience in the theater seemed to really enjoy it, and you could do a lot worse.
