Saturday morning cartoons were typically junk food. But a little is okay. For some kids, those cartoons were a fun way to kick off the weekend after a week of school.
Agent Fox reminds me of them. The acting and humor are broad. In fact, none of its elements--city setting, plot, animation, etc.--are outstanding in any way. They could perhaps have been amusing enough for a series of 30 min. TV episodes. So could the premise of a dishonest fox "agent" going undercover in a community of peaceful rabbits. But a movie, almost 90 minutes long? This isn't nearly good enough for that.
Although some parents will consider it to be a waste of time, many kids will get bored before the 87 minute mark anyway.
See if you can count the number of times they recycle the footage of the fox starting up his computer.
Gets another demerit for the way the characters go "Huh?...Huh?" all the time. Very weird dialogue tic. The fox, for instance, sneaks through a house to burgle it, going "Huh?" at every step. Later he burgles Town Hall; same thing.
