What is Space Jam about?
The Nerdlucks have been dispatched by their ruthless boss Swackhammer, an owner of an intergalactic theme park, to get the Looney Toons for attractions. The Looney Toons (Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, etc.) demand a chance for freedom, challenging the short, little aliens to a basketball game. The Nerdlucks cheat, however, stealing the skills from Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing, Muggsey Bogues, Larry Johnson, and Shawn Bradley, which, consequently shuts down the NBA.

MOVIE REVIEW
Space Jam is one of the best cartoon movies ever! Michael Jordan does a surprisingly good job as an actor (of course, he played himself). Space Jam had a good story, excellent cartoon/computer graphics, and funny jokes! Bill Murray is stupendous, and, of course, the Toons are great! Full movie review »
