Daffy Duck and the Dinosaur is Jones's first use of Daffy, using the older, screwball version rather than the greedy grouch he developed in the 50s.
Chuck Jones's early cartoons usually suffered from poor timing and a more Disney-like approach, but this one is different. It revolves around a caveman that takes his brontosaurus hunting for Daffy. The comedic timing is a lot better than usual for his 1938-1942 work, probably the best out of that era.
The gags are actually quite funny, and the brontosaurus especially lent itself well to slapstick. The ending gag was also pretty creative, with the inflatable duck... But then Daffy gets so carried away with this that when the duck pops, he went down along with Casper and the brontosaurus.
