Simply Perfect

Let's be realistic.

Don't listen to the negative reviews

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

This was a fun parody on the superhero genre, and Bugs couldn't have been a more perfect choice as the one and only "Super-Rabbit". The story is a nice one, not the best structured one there is, but it is never dull and moves quickly. The animation is beautifully done, and the music is top-notch. The supporting characters are careful not to overshadow Bugs while being effective on their own terms too. I loved the visual gags and the witty and razor sharp dialogue. And I too loved Mel Blanc's vocal characterisations, with Kent Rogers also great as Professor Canafrazz. Overall, a fun Bugs Bunny cartoon. 9/10 Bethany Cox

"Super-Rabbit" is a super-terrific, somewhat nonsensical Bugs Bunny cartoon directed by Chuck Jones, with an excellent music score by - who else? - Carl W. Stalling. Our long-eared hero a crime stopper?! Who would've thunk it? But it's true! Mild-mannered Bugs, after eating a super carrot, becomes SUPER-RABBIT! Just in time to match wits with that famous Texas rabbit hater Cottontail Smith.My favorite moments from this cartoon: As Cottontail Smith and his horse literally hop along the prairie, Bugs joins them and they assume some funny riding positions. We hear a rousing football march as Bugs plays basketball with a cannonball. I also like the various adjectives the scientist uses to describe his super carrot, and the upward shot of Bugs falling after he leaps over a tall building. Funniest of all is when Bugs suddenly becomes a cheerleader for Smith and his horse: "Bricka-bracka firecracker sis-boom-ba! Bugs Bunny, Bugs Bunny, rah-rah-rah!" Oh, how I loved "Super-Rabbit" when I first saw it during my high school days, and how I still love it today! Bugs Bunny is a true American hero, a tough guy with a generous heart, brainy rather than brawny, the kind of character who can get away with doing to his adversaries what we would all love to do to ours!

Still in his relative infancy, Bugs Bunny becomes a superhero out to fight an anti-rabbit cowboy. I really liked the scene of the two of them on the horse. Maybe the wartime themes make us cringe a little bit nowadays, but they're not vicious by any stretch (although I hear that some Looney Tunes cartoons were). Maybe this wasn't the greatest Bugs Bunny cartoon in history, but it's definitely worth seeing. Anyone can plainly see why the Looney Tunes cartoons from the '40s and '50s were some of the best cartoons in cinema history (I can't say the same for their modern cartoons; for starters, no more Mel Blanc). A real classic.

This was an extremely funny Looney Tunes. Bugs Bunny gains super powers by eating special carrots, dons a suit similar to Superman and goes after Cottontail Smith. There were a lot of funny and original gags in this cartoon. Probably one of the best Bugs Bunny cartoons ever. If you enjoyed this cartoon, I suggest you see Daffy Duck don the super suit in 'Stupor Duck.'
