The Adventures of the American Rabbit

The Adventures of the American Rabbit is a 1986 American animated film produced by Wolfkill Productions, Murakami-Wolf-Swenson Films Inc. and Toei Animation, and distributed by Clubhouse Pictures. The film focuses on Robert Rabbit, who turns into The American Rabbit (adopting a design that has the color scheme of the American flag, complete with the stars). When he discovers a city being taken over by the Jackals, the star-spangled hero comes in to save the city, only for him to find out that something more sinister planned by Vultor the buzzard is going on, and he needs more than his American strength to save the day.

The film was released on February 14, 1986 and was not well-received by critics and audiences during its two-month run in cinemas. Charles Solomon of the Los Angeles Times said, "Both the writing and the animation in The Adventures of the American Rabbit are so inept that the viewer expects the governor to interrupt the film and declare the theater a disaster area!".
