Admirable film.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Most of Frank Tashlin's cartoons are hugely entertaining and clever, they deserve to be better known as does Tashlin as a director. And Daffy Duck is one of Looney Tunes/Warner Brothers' best characters. Plane Daffy is a classic for both. The animation is fluid and colourful, with expertly camera angles(always one of Tashlin's directorial strengths), and the music is both lively and catchy. The writing is fresh and fabulously witty, there is some brashness but also degrees of subtlety, and to call the gags hilarious is an understatement, very hard to pick a standout as they're all great in their own way. Plane Daffy is easily one of Tashlin's funniest, and with the sexual tension and the caricatures at the end one of his daring too, managing to do that without offending. The story is not exceptional from a premise point of view, but the breakneck pace, the fantastic humour and managing to not be afraid of being ahead of its time makes that not matter at all. Daffy is on top form, the femme fatale character is both beautiful and dangerous and the voice work from Mel Blanc et al is spot on. Overall, a classic. 10/10 Bethany Cox

Frank Tashlin's 'Plane Daffy' is a wonderful wartime cartoon which is very definitely aimed at adults. Aside from containing three suicides and possibly the most cigarettes in any one scene in animation history, 'Plane Daffy' is based around the character Hatta Mari, a leggy blonde nazi pigeon who seduces military secrets out of carrier pigeons. This makes for an extremely sexually charged cartoon, quite literally in one case! Similar in many ways to the excellent Private Snafu cartoon rumours (which was written by Dr. Seuss), 'Plane Daffy' tells most of its story in rhyme, until Daffy finally arrives and the wisecracks get a little looser. Daffy, despite having top billing, doesn't appear in the cartoon until it's more than half way finished but when he does, he knocks the action up a notch from witty setup to lunatic conclusion.Professing to be a woman hater (!), Daffy nevertheless succumbs to Hatti Mari immediately, resulting in the longest animated screen kiss I've ever seen. Tashlin, always the Warner director who owed the most to live action techniques, treats Hatta Mari as if she were a real life screen goddess, never missing a chance to present a titillating angle of her top-heavy figure! The sexual tension between her and Daffy adds a new angle to an age-old chase format and Tashlin's direction is extremely energetic. Special mention must go to Warren Foster's script, which not only features the excellent rhyming narration ("relaxes" is rhymed with "enemy axis", to give but one example of the unpredictable wit on show) but several absolutely hilarious gags. My favourites involve a military-secret-dispenser and a fridge light. There are also lots of subtler in-jokes, such as the fact that Hatta Mari is not only a spoonerism of Matta Hari but also an old fashioned slang term for a loose woman (you get her pregnant, you hatta mari her! Get it?). 'Plane Daffy' is the Warner animation studio at its bawdiest and also, frequently, at its funniest.

Slightly boring. A rare thing to find in a Daffy Duck cartoon, due to the narration of this cartoon. I don't like hearing a story be read out to me slowly and painfully. Although, everything else was just wonderful and funny.A man spills out all the secrets he know about the army to a natzi and then shoots himself in shame. Wow, real appropriate for a children's cartoon. That's sarcasm. Any who Daffy Duck the women-hater comes to the scene, but he soon falls into the woman's trap. But then he runs away swallowing the secret. A projector tricks the woman thinking she is looking at his note with an x-ray and that the note says "Hitler is a Stinker." Hitler and two other natzis see it and say, "That's not a secret. Everyone already knows that." Hitler gets outraged so they shoot themself. Horrible.I don't really recommend this to anyone do to the lack of censorship and patriotic propaganda.

Daffy Duck is a woman-hating military worker who must send a secret message but then he falls in the hands of the seductive "Hatta Mari", whom happens to be a big-breasted blonde buxom Pigeon.Entertaining and excellent WWII toon featuring Hitler as the second villain, the animation is pretty good for it's time and that Hatta Mari chick MAMA MIA! what a woman, this is definitely a cartoon for adults besides kids cause of Hatta.She makes men wanna drool and makes men wanna do it with her.10/10 ( a must see short).
