Featured review
A surprisingly mediocre early 1940's Bugs Bunny cartoon
One thing I disliked about this cartoon was the slowness of it. The jokes were slow (not necessarily bad, just slow), the plot moved along slowly and even the animation was slow (in most places, anyway). This was the main thing I found mediocre.
"Bugs Bunny and the Three Bears" has an odd mix of humour. On the one hand, you have very funny and witty verbal jokes, funny Bugs Bunny acts and you have almost "cringey" slapstick and primarily unfunny sight gags. There is a great deal of originality in the cartoon (for those days anyway), which was very entertaining, fun and interesting to watch. On the whole, I thought it was an unusual Looney Tunes cartoon in quality of the different aspects, never have I had the same opinion of each aspect in a LT cartoon before (at least in my memory).
Anyhow, in this cartoon, we meet a small, grumpy father bear, a mummy bear and an utterly impossibly-biologically over-sized baby bear (he is bigger than either of his parents). The father bear is thinking of something or other, while baby bear waits impatiently for breakfast. They eventually decide to do the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Unfortunately they do not have porridge, so they have carrot soup instead. Not surprisingly, this attracts the Bugs Bunny rather than Goldilocks... Cartoon capers commence...
I am not sure whether I will watch this cartoon again, but it was perfectly pleasant at the time. I recommend this to people who like unusually slow Looney Tunes cartoons and to people who like Looney Tunes slapstick. Enjoy "Bugs Bunny and the Three Bears"! :-)
7 and a half out of ten.
