The Day The Earth Blew Up is classically constructed. Weaving personal arcs into an external conflict, its stakes are clear. Forming running gags, puns, slapstick, and absurdism, the jokes are properly built through setup/payoff. There are even peripheral themes of trust as well as self-acceptance. Centered around an odd couple of contrasting protagonists, the characters are distinctly motivated. It constructs steady tension, a satisfying climax, and tidy resolution. The acting recreates famous voices, complete with comedic timing, committed range, and chemistry. Consequently, The Day The Earth Blew Up isn't groundbreaking, but it's a proficient tribute to timeless humor.


Technically, The Day The Earth Blew Up is heightened to maximize engagement. The cinematography is proactive while often being aesthetically composed. Though manic, its editing remains structured with sharp pacing plus dynamic set pieces. Exaggeration, genre elements, stings, and smash cuts enliven the soundscape. Its music combines melodramatic needle drops with retro scoring. The production design puts Looney Tune iconography inside theatrical settings. Despite lacking fame, its cast has fitting experience. The hand-drawn animation is refreshing and contributes heavily to the film's homage nature. Overall, The Day The Earth Blew Up is delightful even if it's fleeting.
