Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

2freensel I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Superior Duck" is an American 6.5-minute cartoon from 1996, so this one is already over 20 years old, and it falls into the time when Warner Bros' Looney Toons had a bit of a revival. There is no Bugs in here, but at the center of the story is Daffy in superhero costume who basically can do nothing but fly though. As a consequence he gets beaten up by Foghorn Leghorn, is in danger to get eaten by Vile E. Coyote and also constantly argues with the narrator's comments on his not so super status as a superhero. This film is quantity over quality though. The characters are all there, but the material is just too weak. I am a fan of the aforementioned Foghorn Leghorn, but with the exception of his comment on old vs. new he was really disappointing. Taz is another character I like, but his presence alone is not enough either, even if it's maybe better than the Martian's or Tweety's turns. All in all this film directed and also written for once by the legendary Chuck Jones may not be a failure, but it is a disappointment mostly as it lacks the charm of the better old WB works. Bit of a pity, but I have to give this one a thumbs-down. Not recommended as this is never close to being as funny as I wanted it to be.

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . Wile E. Coyote's sign reads during SUPERIOR DUCK as he begins to chow down on Daffy. The Tazmanian Devil gets some licks in, too (which prompt him to become vegetarian). After being disintegrated by Marvin Martian, there's only enough Salt Water Daffy left to reconstitute him housefly size. Foghorn Leghorn had told Daffy that he'd be taken down to bullet stature, which apparently is tinier than the smallest speeding pullet. Speaking of wee, Tweety Bird calls Daffy the P-word here, which is pretty daring to place in front of the noun "duck," the latter term--of course--rhyming with the F-word. (Thick-headed viewers should try to repeat Tweety's sobriquet for Daffy out loud 10 times as fast as they can, and they'll hear the problem.) With Porky Pig, the Roadrunner, and even Superman himself making cameo appearances here, one half expects to hear from the Kitchen Sink. But that would be entering BEAUTY AND THE BEAST territory, and we all know that BEAUTY is strictly a Disney product.

jmak_2002 This cartoon short starring Daffy Duck is rather good. I saw it for the first time yesterday. It's one of the bonus features on the new DVD release of "Daffy Duck's Quackbusters". I liked the cartoon and it's satire on the Superman style, right down to the mangled announcing purposely did for comical intent. By mangled announcing I mean playing with the trademark lines in the Superman opening's of "faster than a speeding bullet..." and at one point "pullet" is said instead of "bullet" which brings out Foghorn Leghorn.I felt the voice acting was good...I've never really been too fond of Frank Gorshin's take on Foghorn Leghorn but his Daffy impression was right on. Bob Bergen on hand as Porky is a plus. The cartoon being a little less than 5 minutes, give or take a minute, though, made for a rushed delivery. It's almost like the people involved wanted to get the cartoon finished and screened and perhaps thought with a short cartoon there's not much time for restlessness with theater goers. After-all, modern-day movie goers aren't familiar with the theatrical cartoon experience and might wonder what's going on when a cartoon pops up on the screen. So, that's my theory why the later cartoons during the 1990's were super short by comparison to the classics from the '40s and '50s.I give it 6 out of 10 stars...if you're not too familiar with these characters like I am, the distinct change in voice in Foghorn Leghorn will not stand-out perhaps. But, given that I'm a big fan of Looney Tunes, it doesn't stand up next to the classics but this doesn't mean this "Superior Duck" isn't any good. It still has Chuck Jones' imprint all over it.

Akbar Shahzad (rapt0r_claw-1) This cartoon is fantastic. Featuring verbal jokes mainly, like the narrator's hysterical goofs. With cameo appearances from nearly every Looney Tunes character, even Wile E. Coyote! Porky returns as the ever-faithful Space Cadet, and Daffy seems to have dumped his old disintegration-proof vest. He doesn't have much luck with the new one either. It has two main focuses: one on a single character amid a forest of cameos and determinedly trying to succeed; the second on the unlucky and quite dim superhero. The animation is brilliant--Chuck Jones manages to create the same effect with all-new animators. With the theme of the fall-guy superhero desperately trying to make do in a cruel world, few beat the hilarious story of Superior Duck.
