AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Brainsbell The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Julian9ehp Chuck Jones wins for Marvin and Bugs, using them freshly in this late cartoon. He wins against the horrible score by Bill Lava, even using it to advantage in the mechanical carrot scene. He wins against a limited set of backgrounds, and the wide-screen madness of movies in the early '60s. (Few pans, few camera movements, thick outlines for the characters.) He even wins against his own tendency for too much talk and too much exposition. He still draws well, he still has good writers, and he still has many good jokes. Even with the ending (no spoilers), which frightened me so when I was a child, I'd recommend this cartoon to almost everyone.

utgard14 Marvin the Martian is surveying the Earth through his telescope when he spots a rocket launch from Cape Canaveral. Sure enough, the rocket's headed his way and on board is Bugs Bunny. When Bugs crash lands, he finds Marvin is none too pleased that an Earth creature has come to "contaminate my atmosphere." This is the last appearance of Marvin the Martian in a classic era Looney Tunes short and it's an enjoyable one, if not particularly great. The gags are okay and the dialogue sometimes amusing. There's a lot of dialogue in this one, too. Good voice work from the incomparable Mel Blanc. The music is a little 'blah' and generic. The animation is nice and colorful. There's something off about the whole thing. I'll put it down to Jones having one foot out of the door, about to leave Warner Bros. The Bugs here is also more reminiscent of later Bugs than classic Bugs, too, which is part of the problem. Still, it's watchable and even fun in spots. Bugs fans should like it fine.

TheLittleSongbird This is a real shame, that this cartoon isn't a classic for while it is entertaining it has too many flaws for me to consider it a classic. While the animation is very well done and detailed, the vocal characterisations of Mel Blanc are top notch and the music is beautiful, what let it down is that it is too talky. It is good that there is dialogue and all that, but there is too much of it. Consequently the jokes don't work as well as it should. Also it may be just me, but I found the dialogue rather hit and miss. There are some good lines like "wait a minute, are you out of your CottonTail mind?" and "because rabbits are expendable that's why" but Marvin is given very little to do because his dialogue isn't that much to go on. Overall, decent but it isn't a favourite of mine unfortunately. 7/10 Bethany Cox

bob the moo Sent to Mars in place of a human, the expendable Bugs Bunny arrives to find Marvin the alien on Mars and not to happy to have the company and immediately greets him armed to the teeth with space age ray guns.It's been a while since I have seen a Bugs Bunny cartoon with Marvin and this film was welcome to me for that reason. However this film is not very good. The first half of the film seems to be mostly talk - Marvin explaining himself and then Bugs filling in the audience as to why he was put on a rocket by NASA. The problem is that this isn't very funny and it takes up half the time of the film!The rest of the film really only consists of two gags around the use of the ray gun, and these aren't that funny either. Bugs is also not himself - he isn't given the chance to do any real trickery and the punchline betrays his character totally. Marvin is OK and does his `that makes me very angry' line a few times, but he can't carry the short.Overall this cartoon is a shame because it is a missed opportunity - both Bugs and Marvin are funny and have made some good cartoons together; sadly this isn't one of them.
