Description

Porky and Daffy, the classic animated odd couple, turn into unlikely heroes when their antics at the local bubble gum factory uncover a secret alien mind control plot. Against all odds, the two are determined to save their town (and the world!)...that is if they don't drive each other crazy in the process.

    I unpretentiously watched this movie during a flight and regretted immediately not having watched it in the movie teather. this looney tunes meets dawn of the dead movie has duffy duck and pork piggy having to face an alien that turns most humans in their town into zombies. The movie is funny and duffy duck's dub artist did an outstanding job. the length of the movie goes very quickly and it's definitely worth watching.

    I saw this on my own in the cinema on Saturday morning, and that did make me wonder how relevant “Porky Pig” and “Daffy Duck” are to young audiences now, outside of the USA. There are really two parts to this story about a pair who have grown up together, imbued with a sense of teamwork and mutual affection by “Farmer Jim”. When a visitor from outer space relieves their home of a great chunk of it’s roof, they find themselves needing to find themselves a job for the first time in the lives to pay for repairs. “Porky” is the more sensible of the two, “Daffy” the more erratic and so their job-hunting isn’t without it’s incident. Then “Daffy” spots a zombified, green-eyed, scientist and next thing we know their chewing gum factory looks likely to be the base for a maniacal alien’s plans to conquer the world. Why? Well luckily our intrepid duo ally with the brainy piggy "Petunia” and she proves quite adept at finding a way to potentially save the day - armed with some rotten eggs, an old fire extinguisher, a children’s roundabout and some inspiration from “Armageddon” (1998). It’s a fairly action-packed animation that I felt could have done without the first twenty minutes, but then rattles along nicely with a baddie reminiscent of Charles Middleton’s “Ming” (1936) and an army of wind-up dentures. It isn’t really a cinema enterprise, but once it got going it managed the balance between slapstick, sci-fi and it’s messages of loyalty and friendship well enough and I quite enjoyed it.
