电影评论:怎么了,失败?动画与真人混合的《Coyote vs. Acme》本该留在货架上

电影《Coyote vs. Acme》被描述为一部笨拙而真诚的真人与动画混合影片,将个人伤害律师引入洛尼图恩的世界。

该片最初是1990年《纽约客》上的一篇讽刺漫画,讲述威尔·艾·科约特起诉阿克梅公司因其缺陷产品而展开的故事。

经过近三十年的开发,该片于2022年制作,预算约为7000万美元,但最初被华纳兄弟作为税务抵扣而搁置。

故事设定在阿尔布开克,展示了人类与动画角色共存的世界,类似于《谁陷害了兔子罗杰》。

情节围绕一名小型个人伤害律师和他的客户威尔·艾·科约特展开,后者对阿克梅产品在追捕公路跑者中的失败感到沮丧。
