VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Steineded How sad is this?

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

loraleejessome This was a reminder how most 80's cartoons that weren't by Disney or Don Bluth were just hilariously awful. A lot of things don't get resolved in this movie. Why do we never see or hear from Rob's parents after he leaves? Why didn't Rob turn into the American Rabbit so he could save Panda-Monium when he had the chance? Do the protagonists ever rebuild Panda-Monium? What happened to the Jackals? Why does the Statue of Liberty look human in a world full of talking animals? Maybe it's the Animal-pocalypse, I don't know. Rob Rabbit is a real wimpy character which is understandable because he's basically Clark Kent in rabbit form, but he's just as pathetic as a superhero. There's racism (species-ism?)in the movie in the movie as well because although it's said several times that not all jackals are bad, we never see any good ones at all. I guess 5-year-old kids might enjoy seeing Rob's flashy transformations into the American Rabbit. But then again this movie must have been written by 5-year-old kids.

darkshadow-80016 I've seen Bobsheaux (a reviewer on YouTube) do a riffing video and it was really funny.The Adventures of American Rabbit is kind of like a "so bad that it's good" movie. What I mean is that you should get all your friends, family, and their friends, sit down with some snacks, and just riff the heck out of it. But on a serious note, this movie is ripping off Superman's theme, Captain America's design (only a little), and even the Star Wars theme and I'm surprised that no one who watched it even noticed. It also doesn't help that this movie has basically every superhero's problem when they first get their powers. The villain threatens the lives of their friends/family and innocents alike if the hero doesn't do what the villain wants and needs a pep-talk to get back in the game. But other than the many jokes you can make out of this film, I recommend it because it has Peter Vankman's (Ghostbusters cartoon) and Garfield's 80's voice actor in it. And that's really it. The other problems are: the hero is lame, the villain is even lamer, the old rabbit in it just comes off as creepy like Herbert from Family Guy, the hero's friends are completely useless to the plot, and speaking of which, the plot twist, involving the villain, close to the end is just....dumb. But if there's three nice things that I have to say about the movie it's this: the jokes you'll make, some kids might like it, and...well, let's just say that all the jokes I made were because it took place in San Francisco. Hint Hint.

ravsten428 At its finest people! This movie should be used in the classroom as an educational tool about how America tries to fool us. This film was made to promote extreme patriotism.This movie is an assault on how we view other countries government systems. Yes communism isn't viewed as good in America but other countries are allowed to use their own systems as long as they don't bother us. We don't need to run the whole world!This short little cartoon actually reminds me of how McCarthy thought. Anyone who was even remotely against American politics but not America itself, was called out as a communist. I would hope that this kind of garbage wouldn't be pumped out today, especially in a kids cartoon. Shame on whoever came up with this garbage!

the amorphousmachine When you were nine years old, it was perfectly believable that a rabbit Wizard would assist a young rabbit to be a patriotic hero who will save other rabbits and animals. Yep, totally legit! However, revisiting this film as an adult induces frequent groans at the dialogue and the silliness of the story- not to mention our hero is called American Rabbit which suggests patriotism is important for the rabbit population.Okay, I remember 'The Adventures of American Rabbit' being released at the cinemas back in the 80s, and it disappeared during the 90s. Admittedly, I had fonder memories of this forgotten flick, but I guess I was so enamoured by the trailers at the time, that I may have forgotten my disappointment. This is not a great animated film by any standard- especially upon a re-watch! It is worth noting that voice-great in Lorenzo Music (Garfield) was the voice of Ping the Gorilla, and other than that, this film is pretty lame. When the bad guy kidnaps the Chocolate Moose to control New York, this film had good from bad to worse. Hard to find a good quality version of this movie, and that is probably for the best.** out of *****!
