Review
It has been a long time since I've mentioned Looney Tunes (#007 - Looney Tunes: Back in Action), but here I am. This was the first theatrical Looney Tunes film, released 6 years before Back in Action. In a weird way, this is a surreal experience. Try saying this sentence "Michael Jordan tries to act in a film with Looney Tunes characters" without thinking "What the heck are you talking about?" Needless to say, the film does have its moments and its odd bits, but it is mildly entertaining to say nonetheless. While Jordan isn't exactly acting (He acts more confused and bewildered, though that may have been the point), the film at least tries to do something with its time to assure that this is not just Michael Jordan: Ego Trip. And with that, that's all folks.
Overall, I give it 6 out of 10 stars.
