Our take
The Day the Earth Blew Up is Porky and Daffy versus an alien gum plot. You get cartoon chases, flavour-explosion gags, and a naked-duck joke that is just Daffy without clothes in the Looney Tunes way. Fine for most young kids who already watch these shorts. Very sensitive preschoolers may find the aliens loud
Uplifting themes
Two misfits try to save their town anyway
Story (may spoil tone)
Porky and Daffy, the classic animated odd couple, turn into unlikely heroes when their antics at the local bubble gum factory uncover a secret alien mind control plot. Against all odds, the two are determined to save their town (and the world!)...that is if they don't drive each other crazy in the process.
