Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Freaktana A Major Disappointment

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

BA_Harrison Jerry gets a letter and a parcel in the post, while Tom gets absolutely zilch. Curiosity getting the better of the cat (dangerous, considering the old proverb), Tom peeks inside the parcel to find a copy of a book titled 'Life With Tom', which details all his failed attempts at catching the mouse in the past. It seems that the book is a bestseller, written by Jerry, a fact that doesn't please Tom one bit, at least until he reads the letter that the mouse also received…Oh no, it's another dreaded compilation cartoon consisting of clips from previous Tom and Jerry shorts; thankfully, the material that has been chosen is so good that Life With Tom isn't too painful a watch despite the laziness of the format. If anything, it makes me want to revisit the originals—the older Tom and Jerry cartoons were always the best.

TheLittleSongbird Although a lot of the material is recycled, this is still a very entertaining cartoon. Plus, the recycled material thing really isn't a problem seeing as the material used is so good, "Cat Fishin'", "Kitty Foiled" and "The Little Orphan" are some of the better Tom and Jerry cartoons in my opinion. The artwork is stunning here, and the music is an absolute delight to the ears. The concept is also great, Jerry writing a book about Life with Tom is a truly great idea, and the sight gags are a lot of fun. To top it all, the ending was really quite nice, and the whole cartoon moves along very quickly. Overall, a very entertaining cartoon even with recycled material. 9/10 Bethany Cox

ccthemovieman-1 This is mostly "flashbacks," which mean re-hashed or retread materials, clips from previous Tom and Jerry cartoons. I hate it when that happens, whether it's The Pink Panther cartoons, or The Three Stooges short films....whatever....it's a lazy way to make a "new" animated or short film. For devotees of that particular character or characters, it's a total waste because we've seen this stuff before.In this cartoon, the "angle" to use this old material is a new book that Jerry has published called "Life With Tom," a play-on-words of the late 1940s film, "Life With Father," perhaps. Anyway, as Tom thumbs through this best-selling book, we get some of Jerry's favorite stories of the two rivals going at each other. A fishing trip comprises one story; a Thanksgiving Day is another is the day Tom tied Jerry's to some miniature railroad tracks. It's all good material, unless you've seen it before. The ending - which at least is new - makes Tom change his mind about the book.

Cwerner88 I LOVE this. I have seen it sooo many times. Tom finds a book in Jerry's mailbox and it is all about the times Tom and Jerry have spent together. Well, the times that make fun of Tom. It is very funny and it is a classic with and ending that will surprise you. I give it an A.Chris
