"Jerry's Cousin" is an American cartoon from 1951, so this one had its 65th anniversary last year. It was nominated for an Oscar, but unlike many other T&J films, it lost, namely to Gerald McBoingBoing, even if probably hardly anybody knows him today anymore and world's most famous cat and mouse are still known to really many. Anyway, like most of the others it runs for 7 minutes, or slightly under, and is of course another Hanna Barbera production. Jerry has enough of it and he calls his cousin Muscles, the baddest mouse in town as we find out right away. Of course, Tom has no chance against him because Muscles may be talking more than Jerry, but he is certainly not all talk. Eventually, Tom has no other choice than calling some cat goons and this is what I was referring to in the title of my review. But can they really make a difference? And how come they have not heard of Muscles before and would just decline the offer. Anyway, the story here is fine, the comedy is as well and the animation is of course as good as in all the other T&J shorts. It may not be greatness, but it is very much worth watching. I recommend this entertaining short film. Thumbs up!

. . . was stolen directly from the "Mighty Mouse" series. The main point of JERRY'S COUSIN is to prove how worthless the feline race actually is. Granted, not every mousetrap works every time, but at least you do not need to buy litter boxes for them, or worry that they will scratch your furniture to shreds. Though some may get a chuckle out of the George Raft hench cat flipping coins on the side, the main point of this animated short lies not in its humor content but rather in persuading people NOT to drag a cat home from the pound.
