Elevated by Daffy

Well, this was an enjoyable cartoon. Yes even with the predictable story and the odd obvious gag. It is hugely enjoyable though, it does have some nice animation with colourful backgrounds and crisply drawn characters, and the music has a lot of energy to it. I also liked the witty dialogue and the clever sight gags, and the ending was a very good surprise. Percy the Bulldog is a good character and is used well, but it is that wonderfully manic Daffy Duck who elevates this cartoon to a greater level with his rapid fire delivery and crazy ideas. Overall, enjoyable, clever and funny, with one or two problems but there are a lot of compensations. 8/10 Bethany Cox
