Review by TheLittleSongbird

First things first, I love Tom and Jerry. I love the animation, the characters, the music, the humour and the chase sequences. Haunted Mouse however is one of my least favourite Tom and Jerry cartoons. Granted, it is not as bad as those abominable Gene Dietch cartoons, but I have to say this is very predictable and bland even for Tom and Jerry. Starting with the good things, I liked Jerry's friend and the concept and the inside of the fridge was beyond cool. However, the animation is pretty bad, one of the worst-looking Tom and Jerry cartoons I think. The colours are okay, but the backgrounds are static and Tom looks really odd and his smile really creeps me out. The music is rather generic, and the sound effects are nothing great. But the biggest problem is that the story is very badly paced and so predictable that next to none of the sight gags work. Overall, disappointing, perhaps worth a look if only once but strictly speaking for the real thing watch the cartoons of the 40s and 50s a vast majority of those are classics. 4/10 Bethany Cox
