One of my favorite movies of all time for so many different reasons. Micheal Jordan did a great job and really made this movie. At the age of 19, I find myself wanting to watch this movie annually and experience times where I will randomly quote one of the characters. I will always remember "I can fly" and Micheal Jordan growing up as a little kid, and then being swept away by animated characters. Great idea for a movie and an obvious classic.

There are a lot of uncomfortable closeups of humans trying to look at what was probably a stick, but now is an infamous Looney Toon. Bugs Bunny has a case of the not-gays. Patrick Ewing reprises his role from The Exorcist III. Larry Johnson contractually mentions his grandma. Charles Barkley fits into a suit that doesn't look like a muumuu. Bill Murray delivers some laughs with little to work with. Foghorn Leghorn kind of steals the show whenever Wile E. Coyote hasn't already.

This movie is a bloody travesty. No, the Looney Tunes characters will not play a friendly game of basketball with Michael Jordan. They hate each other. They want to kill each other. I was 10 years old when this movie came out and even then I could recognize complete bullshit.

Mistakes - 1) When Michael is wrestling with Charles the dog, he has his bag over his arm. But after finishing wrestling, the bag is gone. 2) After the Looney tunes challenge the aliens to a basketball game, the aliens change position when they all yell "All right, basketball.". 3) After Wile E. Coyote crashes into the auditorium, Daffy steps on his nose. On the very next shot, Daffy is walking in the aisle, but Wile E. is not visible behind him.

Space Jam's been thoroughly memefied, but it's useful to go back and say: Wow, yeah, it really is that bad. It doesn't manage to be a sports movie *or* a wacky comedy, nobody involved knows how Looney Tunes humor works, Lola Bunny isn't a character, Michael Jordan can't act, there's no arc or structure, I Believe I Can Fly is in there three times but they don't even use the Space Jam theme itself right?! This is a pile of hot garbage, remembered only for a high concept and a good soundtrack.

I will never be able to separate this film from my nostalgia. Michael Jordan may, possibly, be the worst athlete actor I have seen. Perhaps this is because I have seen Kevin Garnett in "Uncut Gems" recently, and am judging unfairly. Bill Murray, not surprisingly, is the one breath of life in this film. The biggest crime of this film is that it made me believe that Shawn Bradley was a great player well into the 2000s.

This team-up between post-Golden Age Looney Tunes and Michael Jordan (two visibly past-their-prime entities) made me feel bored and embarrassed for everyone involved. It feels like Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue with "don't do drugs" replaced by "buy all the Looney Tunes/Air Jordan merchandise you can find." I love that the film's central message of "you had it in you all along" gets flatly contradicted by every other character in the film, including Jordan himself when he plays baseball.

It looks weirdly good and they at least do something with the concept of real world actors being put in a tune world. Otherwise? It's a film full of weak gags, zero charisma by Jordan, and a lot of awkward ideas. What gets me is how much everyone in the film simps for Jordan; 90% of the movie has everyone practically groveling for MJ's approval in a way that often makes no sense. If there was character to MJ or any punchline to this it might be amusing, but it just comes across as ego boosting.

If nostalgia were all that mattered, SPACE JAM would be a masterpiece. It's not--not even close--but it holds up better than I thought it would. It's got energy to spare, and it's generally funny (though the writing is awfully uneven), and while it's not as technically accomplished as ROGER RABBIT, it's quite workable. Where it falls short is the Looney Tunes themselves, who often feel like an afterthought; aside from Bugs and Daffy, they have very few opportunities to individually shine.

To combine sports and animation is not necessary the best kind of choice. Okay I understand, they wanted to have the top sport players in, but com'on, they are players, not actors! Story is nothing special and actors mostly lame (including DeVito). Did not like much the animated chacaters either.

There is a bizarre charm to Michael Jordan's horrible acting, the weirdness of the human cast, the baffling gambit of jokes that would go right over the heads of children, and the confused and unintentional themes of slavery.
