It may not look the way classic animation fans want it to look. Still, *Coyote vs. ACME* is worthwhile for its ingenuity in both its homage to old cartoons and its clever storytelling, and seeing where your favorite *Looney Tunes* character fits into this wacky universe. https://bit.ly/WileEAcme

Come to think of it, I'm surprised that in the super-litigious US of A it took almost a century for anyone to cotton that "ACME" products were rubbish! Well now "Wile E.

In fact, in my view, most of today’s headache-inducing animation is overly manic and overly silly, releases that pale in comparison to those classic old school offerings. For those who agree with me, however, there’s a new release out there…

The Acme Corporation has finally met an adversary it can’t flatten with an anvil: a courtroom, and the result is an unexpectedly charming Looney Tunes comedy in *Coyote vs. Acme*. The premise is inspired: after yet another Acme product goes spectacularly wrong, Wile E. Coyote takes the company to court with the help of a down-on-his-luck lawyer. It is exactly the kind of ridiculous escalation that feels appropriat…
