If you weren't a kid when you first saw Space Jam, you're a lot less likely to find it palatable. [Blu-ray]January 01, 2011
Live-action/animation mix is good fun for kids.March 24, 2008
Attempts to inject some hipness into the classic cartoon characters, not to mention some potty-mouthed dialogue, will enrage purists, but otherwise this pretty much scores a slam dunk with its under-five target audience.April 05, 2012
I'm certainly not a fan of Space Jam, but it's hard to deny its rich tapestry of questionable ideas.March 24, 2008
Cute, rambunctious, generally amusing rather than outright funny, this clever mix of live action, highlighted by the unequaled skills of basketball superstar Michael Jordan, and animated Looney Tunes antics will be a must-see for kids.December 04, 2016
A mindless, feature-length insult to the dignity and perfection of the Looney Tunes.March 24, 2008
Sufferin' succotash!November 14, 2015
It's about time Warner Bros. revived Bugs. He was the most irreverent, intelligent, sophisticated and appealing cartoon character ever to defy gravity.January 03, 2012
A silly, forgettable comedy...March 24, 2008
Simpler and cruder than Who Framed Roger Rabbit in terms of story and technique, this is still a great deal of fun, confirming that Jordan is every bit as mythological a creature as Daffy Duck or Yosemite Sam.June 24, 2006
Visually, it's a mess: the attempts to blend 2- and 3-D animation with live-action and computer-generated images produce scenes that are fuzzier than the storyline.November 15, 2016
Jordan's superstar persona and serious demeanor are well-suited for his role, essentially that of a straight man. His unruffled confidence and restless energy make him the perfect star and the perfect foil for his new 2-D teammates.
