Warner Dropped the Anvil - Coyote vs. Acme review by griggs
Warner Bros tried to bury this as a tax write-off, which is pretty funny given the villain is basically Warner Bros with an Acme logo bolted on.
Coyote vs Acme takes a silly premise — Wile E. Coyote suing Acme for decades of near-death experiences — and builds a real world around it. The courtroom setup is the smart move: years of explosions and cliff plunges suddenly become evidence, and the gags come from everywhere — background details, legal absurdities, Looney Tunes cameos.
Will Forte plays it defeated in just the right way, giving all the chaos something human to lean against, and John Cena shows up as a corporate lawyer built like a filing cabinet with fists.
It's stuffed almost to bursting, and nobody's leaving confused about what Acme stands for. Still, Wile E. Coyote refusing to disappear might be the most satisfying comeback cinema's handed us this year.
