So first, I love the original film even if Roald Dhal didn't. Tom and Jerry too. I even seen the West End show in London, which wasn't great.

Now step off the high horses keyboard warriors, this is a nice movie for kids.

The best thing about this film is it brings the old songs from the original film with it. The animation was very good, at times yes you can get frustrated but then again, the movie is aimed at KIDS. If you have any children watch it with them, remember it's for them. You will like it even if you do hate it.

Saw 'Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' for two primary reasons. One being my love for Tom and Jerry.

Have vivid and fond memories of seeing all of their cartoons, with the classic ones (the Hanna Barbera years, the best of which among the best cartoons ever made, Chuck Jones' output was a mixed bag and most of Gene Deitch's were abominations and disgraces to cartoondom) being watched over and over, at my sister's late godfather's house at the age of six and have been a huge fan since. While not as good, most of their films have a lot of enjoyable elements and are not bad films at all.

Also to this day still have a lot of fondness for 1971's 'Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory', which as you can tell this film is very strongly indebted to. Sure "Cheer Up Charlie" is the mother of musical-numbers-that-slow-the-film-down and Peter Ostrum couldn't sing to save his life. However the rest of the songs are very good to timeless, the production values are deliciously colourful (especially when in the factory), it's entertaining, it's charming, Jack Albertson is a delight, the oompa loompas are scene stealing characters, the weirdly trippy and deliciously dark boat ride still dazzles and terrifies and Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka (and his iconic introduction) is a performance for the ages. Just to say, didn't care hugely for Tim Burton's version though it had its merits. Really did question the point of this film but with all the above considered, plus most of Tom and Jerry's other crossovers were surprisingly good, part of me was intrigued and hopeful.

'Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory', as feared, was a disappointment and is not one of the better Tom and Jerry films. If anything, to me, along with 'Tom and Jerry: The Movie' and especially 'The Fast and the Furry', it's one of the lesser efforts. Also had mixed views on 'Spy Quest'.

Does 'Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' have pros? Of course. The songs are still great, with the only one coming over as strange in arrangement and staging being "I Want It Now". The zesty "I Have a Golden Ticket" and the beautifully touching "Pure Imagination" particularly come off well. Some of the classic scenes are re-created surprisingly well, particularly the boat ride, which is both wondrous and frighteningly surreal, Willy Wonka's introduction and "I Have a Golden Ticket". Some of the dialogue sparkles and there is the odd amusing moment.

Some of the backgrounds are colourful and imaginative, especially once we get inside the factory, creating that feeling of affectionate nostalgia that one wishes translated into the storytelling. A few of the vocal performances are decent, the highlight being Jess Harnell's note perfect Grandpa Joe. JP Karliak's warmly twinkling and mysteriously enigmatic Willy Wonka is a close second.

However, there are a larger number of cons. Despite being close to personality and drawn well, Tom and Jerry themselves feel shoe-horned in in a story that is not a natural fit for them and most of the time (apart from bringing the golden ticket after being forgotten) they are pointless. Their shenanigans are overused, often distracting from the musical numbers, and little more than filler that pad out time in favour of other memorable parts omitted or toned down. The material is very bland and repetitive, due to a lack of sharp timing and having no originality or freshness. In their 'Wizard of Oz' and 'Sherlock Holmes' outings they served more of a point, added more to the stories, their comedy was funnier and better placed and there was a better mix of old and new, showing fidelity but having enough to set them apart.

Being faithful can be a blessing, the case of 'Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' it was something of a curse. The film suffered from being too faithful and being too closely indebted, and even with the addition of Tom and Jerry and other cartoon characters it added very little new. The only noteworthy fresh touches were the expansion of Slugworth's role (the subplot didn't always make sense but the character was interesting) and Veruca's father growing a backbone and actually scolding her.

Often the human character designs were horrible. The drawing is scrappy and static and the eyes and expressions look dead and with little warmth or joy, almost creepy at times. This is particularly in the case of Slugworth and most of the children. The rest of the voice acting is not particularly good, with the lifeless Charlie of Licoln Melcher and the excruciatingly irritating interpretations of Veruca and Mike from Emily O Brien and Lauren Weisman (meant to be brats but taken too far, the characters are insufferable here) being dishonourable mentions. It's all a mix of hyperactive, with rushed line delivery, and disengaged, some of it done in a monotone. Charlie's mother and the rest of his grandparents are utterly wasted, and excepting Grandpa Joe and Willy Wonka the characters lack their spark. Before one forgets great characters like Droopy and Spike are misused and add nothing and Tuffy is annoying and not just by a little (a talented voice actress like Kath Soucie deserved better).

On top of that the story generates very little warmth, heart, charm or imagination, tending too to be too rushed and hyperactive. Anybody wanting the nostalgia factor are best watching the 1971 film which is full of it whereas too much of this feels like a cheap carbon copy with differences that add little or distract. Instead, one is yearning for fresher material to stop the sense of complete pointlessness but it very rarely comes.

In conclusion, has moments but a purely unimaginative confection. Tom and Jerry and Willy Wonka deserved better. 4/10 Bethany Cox

Just... no.

Someone needs to be fired for this. I'd suggest they should be ashamed of themselves, but this is a shameless display as it is. Offensive to the source material and about as 'original' as someone taking the source material and making a cheap remake.

Oh wait; they did.

I really did not think the title would be harder to say than "Scrumdidilyumptious". Aside from the fact that it has too many "and"s for one title, it shows why Tom and Jerry and Willy Wonka don't belong together, yet somehow the makers decided to shoehorn them in together. Why? Money of course, but also because this was the late Gene Wilder's most beloved movie. This came out months after he passed away, and it upset the internet world, even more than Tom and Jerry's encounter with The Wizard of Oz.

I don't need to mention what the plot is: it's just the Willy Wonka story with Tom and Jerry in the background. But to shoehorn their importance in the film, the makers decided that Tom and Jerry should have a conflict with Mr. (Not) Slugworth throughout Charlie's visit to the factory and make him a misunderstood antagonist for no reason. Out of all the problems in the film, that one gets me the most irritated. Anyone who's seen the original (1971) version know that he's not a bad guy, so it makes no sense why he's chasing Tom and Jerry. And even if kids never saw that movie, it's still stupid. Because in the end they have an all out scene where Tom, Jerry, Tuffy, and Charlie confront (not) Slugworth, before Wonka reveals to them "He was my assistant all along." So if he was a good guy, what was he doing making his good deeds sound deliberately diabolical, and not telling Tom and Jerry, "Hold it, I'm on your side," or even Tuffy (the oompaloompa guide) recognize that he's not a bad guy?

What are other issues that bother me: The human characters look hideous, Charlie's voice actor speaks in a constant monotone (even when he's suppose to be excited), Willy Wonka's sarcasm is lost to monotoned acting and subplots, the famous lines of the movie are rushed out or glanced over, and every moment with Tom and Jerry feels phoned in and boring. Yes, somehow Tom and Jerry chasing each other feels boring now. Thank you, movie. Also, I hate Tuffy. He steals attention away from the Wonka story, speaks for Tom and Jerry, and his obnoxious goal is the same as in The Wizard of Oz: get taller. While it made sense in The Wizard of Oz for him to wish for height, it doesn't in this movie.

However, I still look for diamonds in the rough. What are the good stuff? Everybody's a good singer, and the guy voicing Willy Wonka sounds a bit like Gene Wilder (only when he sings, the rest is monotoned). Apart from Charlie and a kid or two, most of the other voice actors are good and try their best. Jess Harnell as Grandpa Joe is easily the best part of the movie. He just puts all his energy into the character and sounds like he's having a great time. Even the cringey song "I've Got a Golden Ticket" sounds fun with him singing it. I just want to eat up this guy! Also, the background animation does try to recreate the feel of the original factory, but does one thing better than the original: the river really looks like chocolate and not dyed water.

Personally the best thing about the movie was that it reminded me of all the hard effort that went into the original Willy Wonka movie and what a masterpiece it was. While it didn't always follow the book, it felt original, fresh, and new. This movie was a direct rip off to cash in on something beloved. Also, it makes me feel sad that Tom and Jerry are now reduced to direct to DVD movies where they have little to nothing to do. There's a reason they were seven minute shorts instead of ninety minutes, and this movie is one of many confirmations why.

It is two classics brought together in a loving, tongue-in-cheek delight. It's not perfect, but neither on their own was perfect. It's reminiscent and sentimental in all the right ways and has gotten short shrift by too many reviewers.

Not only the animation's horrible, it's pretty much unbearable to watch because of how it focuses too much on Tom and Jerry instead of the actual plot. When a musical scene starts, it focuses on Tom and Jerry's shenanigans instead of the song and it's pretty jarring.

This is a prime example of why two popular things doesn't work together all the time. If you like Tom and Jerry, just watch the cartoon instead! If you like the original Willy Wonka, just keep watching the original. This movie's not only bad, but it's a bit disrespectful considering it's paying tribute to Gene Wilder. He deserves a better tribute than this.

So save your money and don't watch this film! Just go buy the original movie and/or watch the original Tom and Jerry cartoons. They're worth spending your time than watching this atrocity.

My goodness! Who in their right mind thought this film was a good idea? I mean, I LOVED Tom and Jerry when I was little, and when I read about them doing crossovers with other franchises, I thought, ''This looks...interesting" But at the same time, I thought, what exactly is the need to do this?

Whoever thought it was a good idea to shoehorn these two TITANS of cartoon history into a classic film like Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, I pray that they are no longer working in animation. I mean, that I Want It Now song, it looked like a kid's version of Another Brick in the Wall!

Also the fact that the film was released shortly after most of the cast of Willy Wonka died comes across as a little bit INSENSITIVE.

In conclusion, no words can describe this piece of animated offal. In short, avoid like the plague!

So, after i saw a 2.9 on IMDb for the New Tom and Jerry Feature length Movie,

I was honestly a bit upset at IMDb,

not the first time I did not agree with scores posted.......

but still just because it was Tom and Jerry I decided to watch the Same to judge for myself if it were really true....

Could two Cartoon Characters, So Beloved by the entire world, really have an outing that wasn't good enough to score even a measly 3/10......(P.s at the time of writing this review it was 2.9/10)

My Conclusion - Yes and No !!!! Let me explain...................

I was one of the batch of the kids who were still being introduced to our Beloved Characters from the original Chuck Jones and Fred Quimbly - also known as the Golden Age of Tom and Jerry. Since then, Tom, Jerry,Spike and rest of the family has been revamped more than a couple of times and none of them to my liking, Buut i always filed it under "I guess I am too old now to get what the New Age versions are trying to portray." ......!!!.....!!!...

While the new age versions received a clear bump in the animation budget, the other aspects of the shows were either just grossed over or just neglected all together for the sake of budget....

and herein lies the main problem in the very Steep Decline in the Love and appreciation of Our Favorite Cat And Mouse Duo.................. This movie kinda suffers from the same problems....

Although the animation and the look of Our Furry Friends, has considerably improved from the very glitchy type of animations in the previous RE-takes of the famous classic....

......................The problem lies in THE MUSIC................

It was only after recently watching my collection of The Original Tom and Jerry (Mind you I am 26 Now), where i realized that the magic and the love that all of us felt for the show, was due to a Phenomenally Beautiful Sound Track and utterly simplistic problems that Our Furry Friends and their Families Faced... every one, everywhere could instantly relate with them and The absolutely Gorgeous Animation is also a Key Aspect...........................

Now compare That to Tom and Jerry going to Meet Willy Wonka,

for starters u lost a major portion of your adults right here, but still if by any chance an adult were to sit and watch this movie with their kid, they will find it very, very difficult to be drawn into the world that so many of us spent so much time watching, experiencing, loving and emotionally attaching ourselves to the Original Show.......................................................

IN conclusion

i think the studio is yet to understand no matter how much they make our NEW Versions Furry Friends run into different story lines, get animation Upgrades, Make them Talk to Humanize them all

it Never Was and I Doubt ever will hold up to the Beauty in Simplicity and The Absolutely Emotionally Driving Soundtrack is What made the Original So close to our hearts, regardless of age and nationality...

My mom is 55 and she still enjoys the Originals...Nuff Said !!!!

Over all nothing what you do not expect happens in the 2017 Movie, As i said the Animation HAD this glitchy, hyper Active feel to it, but this time round is better done and slightly resembles the Original

Unfortunately the soundtrack still suffers from _

Lazy Cartoon-ishly Stupid base soundtrack

that most of our minds will find it VERY DIFFICULT to get invested in.......

I don't think even most KIDS, in today's day and age will enjoy something like this when U have Johnny Depp and HIS version floating around and the Original Tom and Jerry Shows so readily available !!!

My kids, 7 and 9, grow up with Tom and Jerry, and they enjoyed this movie a lot!

Seriously, who in Warner Bros. thought this was a good idea? Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory is a legendary movie from my childhood. This abomination of a crossover, released almost a year after the death of Gene Wilder, the man who played Willy Wonka, was basically made on the influence of that Lickboot character's infamous line: We've got to have money.

Yeah, this DTV film is nothing more than Warner Bros. trying to milk money off a duo who has been long getting stale due to the many DTV movies being made with them (including other crossovers with movies like the Wizard Of Oz). This movie is basically a remake of the classic film, only with Tom and Jerry injected into the story, which is not good, as the film focuses more on their antics than Charlie, Willy, and company. And Tuffy as an Oompa Loompa? Basically another crossover that serves no other purpose than to milk money out of a classic film by adding two cartoon characters who have no reason to be in it other than to steal the spotlight.

Firstly, the DVD cover claims it's an 'original movie'.

Yeah, let's talk about that.

This is a huge recreation of the Gene Wilder movie, complete with the look of the movie, the look of the original characters, huge chunks of dialogue, the incidental music as well as the songs, the basic plot. There's the obvious addition of tagalongs Tom and Jerry (and a mouse who wants to be an Oompa Lompa), and a subplot of T&J trying to stop Slugworth when he seemingly sneaks into the factory during the Golden Ticket Tour, but really, 'original movie'? That's chutzpah.

The animation hurts. It's like some Eastern European ripoff that would have been made soon after the Gene Wilder movie. The voice actors approximate the original cast voices to varying degrees of success (I find it hard to criticise the voice actors, they're just collecting a paycheck).

I'm old, but I'm not so set in my ways that I can't appreciate a good remake - if the remake can bring something good and interesting to its interpretation. This, like that Gus Van Sant Psycho remake, fails that requirement. Though I suppose it will amuse the younger and less demanding demographic.

I still wonder why Tom and Jerry are the only animals in this world that can't talk. And why the makers didn't put a warning at the start to tell kids that chocolate is highly toxic to cats and mice and other animals.

It has been said the Roald Dahl absolutely HATED the original movie adaptation and insisted his name be removed from any and all packaging. I'm sure he would like this Tom & Jerry treatment even LESS. That being said, we should all put our poison pens away and try to realize this project was absolutely aimed at the pre adolescent set and be thankful for the 90 minutes of distraction it provides. After all, while the kiddies are engrossed in this, think of all the chores you can get done!

Tom and Jerry Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory is the worst movie of 2017 that movie was terrible, unoriginal, the villain is an idiot, the whole movie is what a little kid would do in a candy factory. The only scene I enjoyed in this awful movie is when Veruca Salt got her comeuppance when his father Mr Salt decided to put his foot down and give her daughter discipline for her actions that is right blueberries are better than bad eggs like this spoiled brat, good riddance that's what I say to that annoying good for nothing bratty child and by the way forget this movie and Wonka (2023) is better.

I'm a massive fan of Tom and Jerry as a kid and I'm still a fan to this day. So I decided to watch this movie and it was fun.

Positives for Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (2017): The adventure and journey that Tom and Jerry go in this movie is a lot of fun. All of the shenanigans that they're known for are still awesome and they do get a lot of laughs. And finally, it was cool to see these two iconic characters in the world of the 1971 original movie in animated form.

Negatives for Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (2017): This movie is almost exactly like the 1971 original classic only with Tom and Jerry. The voice cast in this movie are not as good as the cast from the original. And finally, the movie is very predictable when it comes to the Tom and Jerry side of the story.

Overall, Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (2017) is a fun time with these characters and the shenanigans in the world of Will Wonka.

I don't think there was a point to this film. It's just Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory with Tom and Jerry barely serving a role. It's just a way for Warner Bros to make a quick buck.

The only good part of the film was seeing Veruca and her dad escape the furnace and Mr. Salt giving Veruca a well-deserved scolding. Personally, if Tom and Jerry were to be inserted into the film, have them follow the bad kids after their elimination, see their survival, and the consequences to their actions their parents give to them with Tom ending up injured in the process. Tom ended up trapped in the furnace after Veruca, Mr. Salt, Jerry, and Tuffy escaped. Have Tom turned into fudge after Augustus is pulled out of the vat, squeezed and juiced just as Violet had following the 3-course gum, and stretched into taffy/gum just like Mike had to after being shrunken down.

It sounds better than Tom and Jerry chasing after Slugworth despite him being revealed to not be a threat. Plus, we would get closure on the 4 naughty kids after they were eliminated from the tour. Something the original 1971 movie lacked.

Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (2017) is a movie I recently watched with my daughter on Tubi. The storyline follows our two friends as they're adopted by a young boy named Charlie. Charlie hears news of the possibility of finding a golden ticket in a chocolate bar that if found grants him admission into a chocolate factory where he may win a bigger prize. Tom, Jerry and Charlie will stop at nothing to find the ticket and hopefully win a prize that could help Charlie and his family.

This movie is directed by Spike Brandt (Back at the Barnyard) and the voices are provided by JP Karliak (Boss Baby), Jess Harnell (Animaniacs), Lincoln Melcher (Mr. Church), Mick Wingert (Avengers Assemble) and Dallas Lovato (No Vacancy).

The animation is actually pretty awesome and it was fun to see Tom and Jerry in this format. Their injection into the storyline was fun but some of the characters weren't as well presented as they could have been. The settings and scenarios are very well presented and entertaining; but unfortunately, Willy Wonka was dry and a bit stale.

Overall, this movie is worth watching once but didn't hit its full potential. This could have been very good with a little better writing. I'd score this a 5.5/10 and recommend watching once.

Funny as usual.mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
