Do you mean the the writing was middling? What are you comparing it to, if so?
For my part, I feel like they knew what's for sale: visual gags, old school white face/red nose, callbacks, and a lot of really high polish old school animation. It was never going to be EEAAO.
I just thought it wasn't very funny, so yes, writing was middling and I'm not above enjoying kids movies. I had expected more genuine wacky stuff from a Looney Tunes flick. It needed more weird stuff like Farmer Jim, honestly.
Farmer Jim was inspired. My 6 year old liked it, but my wife did pass out during the show and I don't blame her. They played it a bit too safe for this kind of "last hurrah" project imo, but it was certainly better than any of WB's Space Jam stuff. It's a shame that Looney Tunes are a bit doomed under the current CEO.
