Looney Tunes: Back in Action arrives as an animated adventure directed by Joe Dante, and its first strength is a clear sense of purpose. Brendan Fraser and Jenna Elfman give Looney Tunes: Back in Action a recognisable human centre before the larger mechanics take over. The central situation in Looney Tunes: Back in Action comes into focus without a long explanation: Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck team up with an aspiring stuntman and a studio executive in order to rescue the stuntman's missing father and locate a mythical diamond before the head of a major conglomerate uses it for his own wicked deeds. Across its 1h 31m running time, Joe Dante keeps Looney Tunes: Back in Action capable of strong moments without finding a complete rhythm.
