Looney Tunes Back In Action (2003) 6/10

Starring : Brendan Fraser, Jenna Elfman, Timothy Dalton, Joan Cusack, Steve Martin
Director : Joe Dante
Running Time : 87 mins

Daffy Duck is fired from his job and decides to move in with one of the security guards (Fraser) at the Warner lot. Coincidentally, the guards father, a famous super spy (Dalton) is kidnapped and held hostage by the chairman of Acme Inc (Martin), who plans to take over the world by turning all of humankind into monkeys.

There are far worse childrens movies doing the rounds, but this one feels a little too forced at some points. Fraser seems at home among the cartoon world, having already made Monkeybone at this stage in his career, but despite the mix of live action and animation this is nowhere near being anything like a patch on Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
