To me, this movie is perfection.
That was an excellent one.
It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Having once again realized he "should've taken that left turn at Albuquerque", Bugs winds up in Scotland where he already finds trouble when he mistakes a Scotsman in his kilts playing a bagpipe for an old lady being attacked by a monster and "kills" the instrument. From there, insults fly fast as the kilt-wearing man whose voice partially resembles Yosemite Sam challenges the rabbit to a game of golf. As with Sam, Bugs changes one word that makes his opponent accept one of his plays as a "hole-in-one" despite fifty-five tries! None of the stuff Bugs does would be acceptable in the golf rule book but they're pretty hilarious nonetheless! That last gag is a topper! Another funny outing from Chuck Jones and Michael Maltese.
Maybe "My Bunny Lies Over the Sea" stereotypes the Scots as kilt-clad, bagpipe-playing grouches, but it is a hilarious cartoon. After Bugs Bunny forgets that left turn at Albuquerque, he ends up on the bonnie banks of Loch Lomond in Scotland, where he and a local settle a dispute by playing golf. Needless to say, Bugs turns the whole thing on its head.Among other things, this cartoon makes one nostalgic for the days - which may have been well over 100 years ago - when golf represented Scottish heritage and wasn't just something that rich snobs did to waste time (especially given that Jack Abramoff took Tom DeLay and Bob Ney on the golfing trip in Scotland a few years ago). But mostly, it's a classic cartoon plain and simple. Or, to say it like they would in Scotland: Ay, 'tis a wonderful wee cartoon, ya blasted Englishman! I wonder if that was the Wallace plaid during the opening credits. As a descendant of William Wallace (Scotland's greatest patriot and the subject of "Braveheart"), I hope that it was.
In this early cartoon, Bugs Bunny forgets that left turn at Albuquerque, and ends up in Scotland, where he meets a Scot, and they have a disagreement. After finding that Scottish people don't play cards to settle issues, Bugs plays golf against the Scot. Once again, the rabbit's inventiveness baffles the foreigner.Warner Bros. released this on two videos and DVD, which is good news. Bugs pulls some funny stunts out on the green, and I like his impersonation of a Scottish landowner. There's a good auction spoof as well. All of it is funny, though not above the average Looney Tunes cartoon. Recommended.
When Bugs takes that oh-so-famous right turn when he should have went left, he ends up in Scotland instead of the Labrea Tar Pits. The best ever game of golf ever seen on T.V. against a Scottish bag-pipe player ensues. Definitely for any Bugs fan whose ever played a round of golf. I only wish i could pull some of those stunts on the links. 10 out of 10.
