Another fun Road Runner & Wile E. Coyote short from the great Chuck Jones. As with all the shorts in this series, the plot's as simple as they come: the Coyote chases the Road Runner and tries to catch or kill him through various means. He never succeeds, of course, but we love to watch him fail. There are some funny gags in this one, including a fun bow & arrow gag and a recurring one with these little dart bombs. The animation is crisp and colorful with some nice backgrounds. There's a little bit near the beginning I love. One of Wile E.'s ears bends and scratches his head, then his eyes turn into light bulbs as he gets an idea. It's a nice little Jones-ism. A solid Road Runner cartoon I'm sure most fans will enjoy.
