Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

. . . Mexicans, Bugs Bunny warns 21st Century America in another prophetic Looney Tune from the Mid-1900s. Though Bugs' final word in his HARE-WAY TO THE STARS animated short might strike the casual listener as "Martians," the Giant Green Geese to whom Bugs is referring clearly have much more in common with the flood of rapist murderers Leader Trump has informed us is streaming across our Southern Border than the handful of microbes discovered so far on the Red Planet. Obviously Warner Bros. is warning us that the tide of green or red wet ones starting to percolate up from U.S. sewers as HARE-WAY TO THE STARS climaxes is hardly benign. Looney Tunes was established with the Prime Objective of alerting America to its impending Calamities, Catastrophes, Cataclysms, and Apocalypti. Bugs is simply echoing the Book of Revelations when he says that we'll have Aliens or Blood running down the street shoulder high UNLESS we build the Great Wall or Trump. By Golly, America, heed Bugs' warning and let's Get Cracking, before the Final Trump Sounds!

First I'll say that Marvin and Bugs are very good in this Looney Tunes episode. Secondly I'll say that I did not like the other parts of this cartoon nearly as much. Stuff that I liked were the two main characters, the quotes and I thought the plot was quite good. The jokes are - in places - mediocre, at least the farce and slapstick ones are.Personally I prefer "Mad as a Mars Hare" a slightly similar cartoon also featuring Bugs and Marvin. This particular cartoon is more for people who like the slapstick and farce in Looney Tunes, although this for people who like Bugs Bunny as well - at least to watch once, anyhow. Planktonrules submitted a good point in his review: Why is this cartoon banned? I had not heard it was until I read his review and I think the reason may be something to do with the idea of "exploding the earth" and perhaps the fact that it is set in a demolition site may be something to do with it. These are complete guesses, but it's something to think about while you watch this cartoon.Bugs Bunny, having had carrot juice and radish juice mixed, feels absolutely dreadful and is having a sort of hangover. Due to some circumstances (that you have to watch to understand properly) Bugs climbs into a space rocket and finds himself in space, on a comet and in some sort of space station where a little alien is very excited.... I recommend this to all Bugs Bunny fans, people who like space Looney Tunes and people who like farce at least a little bit. Enjoy! :-)

Occasionally I like to browse Google using the search term "banned cartoons" as many of these suppressed films are interesting--especially from a historical point of view. With most of these cartoons I can understand why Disney and Warner Brothers have decided to withdraw them from general distribution, as they have some horribly insensitive and hurtful portrayals of minorities. However, SOME of them are excellent entertainment and aren't the least bit offensive to anyone other than a humorless corporate executive. Now why THIS PARTICULAR one was removed from circulation is beyond me and I wonder if it has NOT been pulled by Warner--especially since it features the ever-popular Marvin the Martian. Was, perhaps, someone offended because it made fun of aliens? I doubt it and seriously think this film was never repressed and someone labeled it "banned" incorrectly.Now as for this cartoon, this is one of the most famous Warner toons and has been very popular with audiences over the years. Bugs accidentally gets shot into space where he meets Marvin--who is about to blow up the Earth since it obstructs his view of Venus!! Very funny stuff and featuring the best Chuck Jones-inspired artwork.

Badly hung over from mixing radish juice and carrot juice the night before, bugs staggers up his stairs and accidentally into a space rocket that has been established as a launch point directly above his home. When the rocket reaches his destination, Bugs stumbles into a plot by an alien to destroy the earth - a plot Bugs has no option but to try and foil.This film is one of the many that started to cash in on the whole sci-fi scene and saw the creation of the alien character who has faced up to several of the usual characters. The plot here is too simple for my tastes and doesn't create that many funny sequences. The overly silly setup is happily put aside as soon as it can be to create a battle of wits between Bugs and alien. Sadly this chase is full of daft looking monsters who are easily outwitted by Bugs - but only in one amusing sequence. Before you know it the film is finished (and with a whimper at that).Bugs is good and the alien is funny if you like him; the problem seems to be with the material, which is uninspired and lacking in real imagination or spark. Bits of it are still pretty amusing but mostly I found it to be quite lacklustre considering the characters involved. Overall, it is worth seeing because all Bugs Bunny films are, but it would have been nice if the material had ran to a few more sequences with more laughs.
