Tom & Jerry au Far West

I sat down to watch the 2022 animated movie "Tom and Jerry: Cowboy Up!" with my 11 year old son. Sure, I had grown up watching Tom and Jerry cartoons on morning TV, so I figured why not watch this one for old times sake.

And while "Tom and Jerry: Cowboy Up!" was watchable, it just wasn't an outstanding animated movie. I will say that my son definitely enjoyed it a lot more than I did. But it was fun to watch the cat and mouse on the screen again, I will give them that much.

The storyline told in "Tom and Jerry: Cowboy Up!" just didn't really capture my interest all that much, so it wasn't a particularly thrilling or funny movie to sit through. But hey, it is all a matter of individual taste and preference, of course. So writers Will Finn and William Waldner just didn't deliver something wholesome for my liking.

The art and animation in this 2022 was good, no doubt about that. And it was visually pleasing on the eyes to watch "Tom and Jerry: Cowboy Up!". Lots of nice details.

My rating of "Tom and Jerry: Cowboy Up!" from director Darrell Van Citters lands on a five out of ten stars.

Absolutely terrible movie! I loved watching the classic Tom and Jerry as a kid and this is the worst one I've ever seen. The sounds are weird, the animation style is awful, the storyline makes no sense... would not recommend.

Bentley has come home to an old west town. He's not the success that he claimed to be. He and his sister Betty have to protect the family farm from wanted bank robber and forger August Critchley. August has been grabbing all the land around them. Bentley has brought along his cat Tom. There is Jerry the mouse and his three young nephews. There is also an underground city of prairie dogs.

I can do without the nephews. I would also like to keep the prairie dogs as background animals, only to be brought out for a climatic takedown of the villain. They also don't need a smarter cat. Jerry already has that role. He's the smarter 'cat'. I don't like all the villain cats. What they need is one Spike the dog. I still do love the Tom and Jerry interactions, but they've added so much unnecessary stuff around them. As for the human story, I guess the movie needs something to wrap around Tom and Jerry. It's not the best, but there is a need for it. As Betty says, this is too much.

It's one of the best Tom and Jerry movies and also one of the best movies ever , everyone can watch it , its great for all ages (including adults) 100% recommended.

If you watched Tom and Jerry in your childhood you will love the new movie!

Very nostalgic to see again my childhood favourite characters!

I recommend this movie!!!!
