Featured review
A cult classic, right place and right time.
Basketball legend and global icon Michael Jordan is thrust into the world of Bugs Bunny and the Looney Tunes to defend their freedom in a basketball game against the maniacal Mr. Swackhammer and his team of Monstars who have stolen the talent from NBA Superstars.
That's all plotwise folks, it's no masterpiece and goes for only 87 minutes but it is original, funny and has a fantastic soundtrack.
Michael jordan is no actor but he's very endearing and he's backed up with the comedic talents like Wayne Knight and Bill Murray along with some other great cameos from the NBA landscape.
"Spacejam" is a good time for families and basketball fans alike.

Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaTowards the end of the basketball game, Daffy asks Bill Murray, "Exactly how did you get here?" Murray responds, "The producer is a friend of mine," referring to producer Ivan Reitman, who worked with Murray on Meatballs (1979), Добровольцы поневоле (1981), and the Ghostbusters movies.
- GoofsWhen Daffy Duck is strutting down the runway showing off his many different looks, his basketball sneakers are shaped like regular sneakers at the toe. In the next shot, they are shaped like his webbed feet.
- Quotes
Bill Murray: It's 'cause I'm white, isn't it?
Michael Jordan: No. Larry's white, so what?
Bill Murray: Larry's not white. Larry's clear.
- Crazy creditsAfter the credits, various characters quarrel over who gets to say "That's All Folks", then 'Michael Jordan' says "Can I go home now?" Then the Looney Tunes "That's all folks!" written text slides over.
- Alternate versionsDue to a two-hour time slot for some cable channels:
- The Stan Polodak deflation scene was shortened due to 9/11 attacks.
- The closing credits is in a black background and slide-showed, while omitting the "That's All Folks" post-credit.
- ConnectionsAlternate-language version of Супергерой Тунпура (2010)
