I can't believe that this got a theatrical release. The standard of animation is worse than direct-to-video and the ramshackle story is among the weakest and clichéd in this sub-sub-genre.
Most of the Tom and Jerry shorts from the 1950's were made in "Cinemascope" widescreen but this wasn't. Did the makers learn anything from the past. Clearly not as the short cartoon quality is far superior to this 90's effort.
The plot concerns the Cat and Mouse duo, who have been made homeless, helping a lost orphan escape from her evil aunt. These are all major clichés in kiddies cartoons. But guess what? Tom and Jerry become friends, so there is no combat or action. It's just all infantile slush.
If you really want to buy a cartoon movie for your kids or want to advise them on what to watch then direct them towards the new Scooby Doo movies and forget that this rubbish exists. After all, the people who made forgot what Tom and Jerry originally were.
