n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Robert McKimson's 'Easter Yeggs' is an up and down cartoon that works in fits and starts. Crammed with ideas (perhaps too many), 'Easter Yeggs' pits Bugs against a lazy Easter Bunny, an annoying young child and his gangster family and a gun-toting Elmer Fudd. These threads are all drawn together with pleasing smoothness at the end but the jumping between them makes the cartoon seem a little lumpy and overstuffed. Another problem is the character of the Easter Bunny, who is whiney and entirely unappealing. Nevertheless, he gets the best moment in the cartoon when he makes an unexpected cameo in the middle of one of Bugs's heckles. Despite all it's flaws, I do like 'Easter Yeggs'. It's never going to be considered a classic by anyone but it is at least bright, colourful and inventive and there are enough decent jokes to counterbalance the dull spots.

Directed by the capable Robert McKimson, "Easter Yeggs" is the definitive Easter rabbit cartoon made at Warner Bros. The Easter rabbit in this case is quite shallow, always finding a sucker to deliver his Easter eggs for him every year. The sucker he found THIS time is - who else? - Bugs Bunny! As Bugs takes over the Easter rabbit's job, he skips merrily down the road and sings, "I am getting looney tooney, dashed in the head. This whole thing is gooney, I should've stood in bed!" The following are my favorite highlights from "Easter Yeggs." Without any doubt, the most hilarious scene in this cartoon is that of Bugs trying to show Elmer Fudd a magic trick by covering Elmer's watch with a handkerchief and then quickly smashing the watch with a hammer. Earlier, Bugs meets the brattiest of brats ("I want an Easter egg! I want an Easter egg! I want an Easter egg!" and "He bwoke my wittle arm! He bwoke my wittle arm!"), who terrorizes Bugs with all his might, starting with splatting an Easter egg in Bugs' face. After Bugs' painful episode with the kid, he does some more skipping down the road, but his happy singing voice is now angry and sneering! And when Elmer chases Bugs into the Tunnel of Love, they both emerge in a clinch."Easter Yeggs" is a super cartoon, and Bugs finally decides at the end that enough is enough, that the REAL Easter rabbit must pay the penalty for his lack of character.

Bugs is happily reading when he spots the Easter Rabbit (notice he's deliberately referred to as "Rabbit" rather than "Bunny"), worn out from his many years of egg delivery, crying. Bugs happily offers to deliver the eggs for him only to find out the hard way why delivering Easter Eggs has become such a chore for the Easter Rabbit.Being a late-1940s holiday-themed Bugs Bunny short, and a Bob McKimson one no less, we can logically expect that the holiday will be anything but "happy" for our favorite gray rabbit. As a matter of fact, this is probably one of Bugs's angriest and most cynical performances yet (again, this can be attributed to the cartoon's aforementioned director, who often portrayed Bugs as a blunt, impatient and almost mean-spirited character). Bugs's interaction with his two main antagonists, namely a redheaded bully and an angry Elmer Fudd, is great; as is his growing frustration with the lazy and selfish Easter Rabbit. What really makes this cartoon stand out, however, is its dialog. Particularly, Elmer Fudd's opening scene/line (which is quoted here for your viewing pleasure). Excellent punchline at the end, too (although just HOW that "bomb" got there is beyond me).Overall, despite some inconsistencies (which can probably be attributed to McKimson's inexperience directing Bugs Bunny cartoons), this is a great holiday themed short that every WB fan must see. The perfect escape from a sometimes overly joyous occasion.

I grew up on Warner Bros. cartoons, and thought I had seen them all. Somehow I missed this one until I found it on a laserdisc collection. It is now one of my favorites because it contains two of the funniest lines in all of the WB cartoons (see quotes).
