Review 4K Movie

It's a bit of a miracle just to be able to watch Coyote vs. Acme after everything it's been through just to get a theatrical release and that journey only enhances the message of a pretty funny and heartfelt underdog story about never giving up even when the game looks like it's rigged against you. The mix of a traditional courtroom drama alongside classic Looney Tunes shenanigans works surprisingly well and the relationship between Wile E. Coyote & Roadrunner is given real weight.

Will Forte is the ideal leading man for this in the same way that Wile E. Coyote is the perfect character to be the film's driving force. Will Forte feels like he's fully committed even when his character is completely tapped out and he has a solid rapport with his animated co-star, who's 4th wall breaks and sign gags are some of the best jokes. John Cena is a highlight because he knows how to seriously commit to a comedic role and Lana Condor is really good by bringing plenty of enthusiasm.

Dave Green's energetic direction comfortably matches the kinetic nature of Looney Tunes in live action, delivers a few genuinely exciting action set pieces and the merging of animated elements in a live action setting mostly looks good. Brandon Trost's cinematography also has a lot of energy which is a natural fit for a film with this much winning slapstick as well as a nice amount of visual gags. Steven Price's score is another element that works by committing to the stakes wholeheartedly.
