4/10
From scientist to anti-terrorist fighter

"Haredevil Hare" is a 7.5-minute Warner Bros cartoon from 1948, so this means this wasn't political anymore as World War II was over. Instead, people's minds were on the exploration of space and this includes Maltese, Jones and Blanc as well. Bugs is shot up to the moon and he finds dangerous creatures very quickly when he runs into Marvin the Martian, his dog and their plan to blow up the Earth. So Bugs, even if he says initially he does not want to be a hero manages to prevent the catastrophe, even if he is allegedly safe on the moon. He probably cared more about the millions of carrots that would get destroyed and not about the human (and rabbit) lives. I thought this cartoon lacked real moments of greatness and would not count it among the best Looney Tunes. Interesting for its historic context, but the story is forgettable. Not recommended.
