Michael Jordan slams, Bugs Bunny jams and the Looney Tunes stars hoop it up in this rim-rattlin’ roundball romp that’s one of the funniest animation/live-action capers ever made. Jokes fly as the Tune Squad takes on the Nerdlucks in a hard-court game to decide if the Looney Tunes remain here … or become attractions at a far-off galactic off-ramp called Moron Mountain. The Nerdlucks have a monstrous secret weapon: they’ve stolen the skills of top NBA stars like Charles Barkley and Patrick Ewing and become Monstars. But the Tune Squad’s secret weapon happens to be the finest player in this or any other universe. He’s outta this world. So’s the fun.
