Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Terrific Bugs Bunny cartoon, directed by Friz Freleng, with Yosemite Sam as the cutest pirate you're likely to ever see. While burying his treasure on the beach, Sam disturbs Bugs in his rabbit hole. What follows is Bugs and Sam fighting it out on the high seas in hilarious fashion. It's a wonderful short with the legendary Mel Blanc having a blast doing the voices of Bugs and Sam. He even gets to do a Charles Laughton impersonation. The animation is beautiful with rich colors and well-drawn characters and backgrounds. The music is energetic and fun. It's a classic, plain and simple. Anybody who enjoys Bugs and Yosemite Sam will get a kick out of this one.

This is a Bugs Bunny short directed by Friz Freleng. There will be spoilers ahead:This short is an incredibly funny and well crafted cartoon. If I were to sum it up in a sentence, that sentence might well be, "HOO-WHEE, that blowed up real good!", because of all the explosions. Yosemite Sam (aka, "Redbeard") is the perfect foil in this one.Sam is a pirate burying a treasure chest and he happens to try to bury it over Bugs. Sam should have stayed in bed. There's a solid bit with a series of four doors and a running gag involving cannons which ultimately takes the wind out of Sam's sails.Here's a tip-gunpowder and matches make for an interesting combination. Sam tries to call Bugs's bluff, but he's not bluffing. The looks on Sam's face as Bugs tosses one lit match after another into the hold are priceless.This short is available on a number of DVDs and at least one Blu Ray (it looks very good on the Blu Ray). The short is well worth watching. Recommended.

Before I first watched this Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam episode, I already expected some of the jokes, because I had watched the remake, "Captain Hareblower". The remake is quite funny and very slapsticky, but not quite as good as "Buccaneer Bunny" which includes slightly better jokes among the slapstick and farce.Anyhow, in this episode, Yosemite Sam, starring, as he phrases it, "The best buccaneer on the Spanish Main", is digging a hole to bury a trunk-full of treasure. However, it turns out he has dug into the burrow/warren of Bugs Bunny, who, from another supply of treasure buried before, is adorned in expensive earrings, necklaces and bracelets: in other words, jewellery. The buccaneer is not pleased with having this bunny before him, especially as Bugs tells him he will know where Sam will bury his treasure. Cartoon chaos ensues...I like this episode because of the animation and the jokes in it, even some of the slapstick ones are quite funny and good to watch. Bugs Bunny is as good as he usually is, tricking Yosemite Sam a great deal of times.I recommend this episode to people who like/ do not mind cartoon slapstick, Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam. Enjoy "Buccaneer Bunny"! :-)

Yosemite Sam is in his element here, playing a pirate called "Seagoin Sam." He describes himself as "the blood thirstiest, shoot-'em-firstiest, doggone worstiest buccaneer as ever sailed the Spanish Main."Most of this cartoon takes place on a big ship where, by the way, there is no crew - just Bugs and Sam. Where is everyone? Anyway, we get one chase scene after another, like a Tom and Jerry or a Roadrunner cartoon, and most of the gags are good and Sam gets blown up time after time. Along the way, Bugs does an imitation of Charles Laughton doing "Captain Bligh," while also taking care of the stool pigeon "Polly."Good laughs, all around and, once again, Warner Brothers has done a beautiful restoration job on this cartoon. The colors in here are tremendous.
