Tom & Jerry

Always was a fan of the cat and mouse duo "Tom and Jerry" so for sure I watched the latest big screen movie, and must say it was really good and entertained as the way the animation mixed with live action and people characters was super great. Set in New York City the big apple the tale involves a wedding(only things get elephant like crazy!) And both the cat and mouse take up shop in the luxury loft elegant hotel and their chases entertain! Wrapped around it all is a young lady and hotel lobby worker Kayla(Chloe Grace Moretz) as all become friends and learn about the ins and outs of life! The music score and scenes are well done as it even has avid fans thinking back to memories of the old classic Hanna Barbera days. In the end things stay the same with the classic chase rivals only it's live happily ever after for others. Good tribute and entertaining movie of the classic cat and mouse duo.

Fun Fact 🌝 : Over the course of its original run, the -{ Madly }- talented animation duo of William Hanna and Joseph Barbera produced an Un-equivocally impressive total of One-hundred-and-fourteen " Tom and Jerry " short movies for MGM from 1940 to 1958. During this time, they won a Whopping -{ S E V E N 🙆 💥❗}- Academy Award in the 'Best Animated Short Film' category. Well, although that fact certainly helped -{ Motivate }- me to watch " Tom and Jerry " { 2021 }, it is 'in no way' meant to be a hint from me-to-you, that -{ This }- particular iteration of the world famous entertainment franchise is in any way worthy of a 'Best Feature' Oscar .

👉{ However }👈 , EVEN having said that, I want to make it clear that : ' just the very contemplation ' : of the " Genuinely Phenomenal Levels Of Imagination" that it must have taken the dramatically & -{ Comedically }- Fabulous 💎❗Chloë Grace Moretz { & a whole -Host- of other Principal-characters } to, well ...( basically )... perform -The Entire Picture- opposite their two " Leading Critters " who ( in-point-of-fact ), well... didn't really even EXIST-At-All ...leaves one in complete " Awe " of -not only- their collective Acting Prowess 💜❗, but also with a 'Profound' sense of -{ Respect }- for the impressively ambitious scope of the overall project, itself .

Summary : I -Sincerely- recommend enjoying this just as more of a casual, 'at home, sort of watch'..... { -Unless- , Of Course , you happen to be chaperoning 👉( Pre-Teens )👈 to the Movies ( & hopefully in a safe watching environment, at that ) } ...& -{ Not }- as a full fledged cinema-Event, especially for those of you who may tend to be financially conservative in terms of their big-screen movie watching habits, & more so at this time of ( general ) global hardship. You -{ Won't }- be remiss, watching it on a streaming platform, or on Dvd , -{ INSTEAD }- . A " Supportive , -{ Pandemic Considerate }- " 6.50 out of 10 😘 🐭 🐱 .

As someone who loved the original cartoon, this was so disappointing. Why did they think that we wanted to watch an hour of wedding drama and boring human subplots?

This would've been so much better if they just cut out all the human stuff, and stuck to what made the originals so great.

Also, the soundtrack has to be one of the most ill-fitting ones I've ever heard. Who chose all of those songs? It was completely jarring!

Overall, it was just tedious to sit through, and clearly missed the point of the show.

A good movie for the whole family, but the conversations of the people should have been less. More animations.

Animation quality was poor; an attempt to bring decades old flat almost 2-D animation into the present. Script also tried to be cool current w/ rap music & human personal issues as background. Result was a bizarre interfacing of animation & live action (actually non-action). Boring dog chases cat chases mouse interspersed w/scenes of humans in a hotel.
