"The Hasty Hare" is a 7.5-minute cartoon from 1952, so this one will have its 65th anniversary next year. The star here is Bugs Bunny this time and he is not against Daffy, Elmer or Sam in here, but against the Martian, a fairly popular cartoon from the Warner Bros. franchise, who was not as frequent as some of the others though. I personally like the way he looks, but this character is one of the very few cases where I am not too big on Mel Blanc's voice acting. In my opinion, his approach does not fit the character. The Martian is a pretty simple guy carrying out orders for his boss in this little movie and despite his lack of intelligence and mostly thanks to his weaponry, he manages to get Bugs on board of the space ship, but of course in the end the bunny has the last laugh. Not the audience though. There were some fine moments with Bugs getting quickly on board when he sees the armed power of the Martian and the straight jacket scene was fun too, but as a whole it wasn't really entertaining. i give it a thumbs-down.
