Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

ccthemovieman-1 This is a Robin Hood story about Jerry and his pal Tuffy getting their famous pal (Robin Hood) out of a jam. The authorities had caught the famous bandit and were going to hang him, but the little mice are determined to save Robin. Two things you see and hear grab your attention right off the bat: the beautiful, lush Sherwood Forest painted on the widescreen CinemaScope format and Tuffy speaking "the King's English." Expressions such as "blooming" as in "let's crash the blooming party, eh?" sound funny coming from Tuffy. By, the way Tuffy does all the talking; Jerry says nothing in the whole cartoon. Tuffy is a bit rough with all the "blooming" this and that (six times) along with a few other marginal exclamations. His dialog was funny at first, then got annoying.That fine artwork, by the way, continues with some of the best I've ever seen in a Tom and Jerry cartoon, maybe even the best.Most of the story is Jerry and Tuffy trying to break Robin Hood out of jail while Tom, the guard, does his best to thwart them. The main gag is Tuffy trying to get the key to the cell out of Tom's stomach.Overall, this is decent. It certainly was different enough, regarding the normal Tom and Jerry cartoons, to be almost a curiosity piece. It wound up being the final one in the recently- released "Tom and Jerry Spotlight Collection Volume 3" DVD.

benjamin_380xd As was the case with most cartoon studios in the 1950's, Robin Hoodwinked shows obvious and dramatic cost cutting. If you notice in the credits, only Ken Muse is the animator from the glory days. Not to slam the other fellows, but when compared to the 1940's and early 50's shorts, this one falls down in terms of style, animation quality, and overall appearance. Its a good story though and its been done countless times both in animation and film. As would be the case with future HB efforts, this one has dialoge. Lots of it. This would be a hallmark of HB in the 60's onward as the animation quality was in a state of irretrievable decline. Keep in mind that a T&J cartoon from the 40's cost nearly 60K to produce! Obviously with the advent of television and the decline in movie attendance, MGM was not keen on shelling out big bucks to produce these cartoons. Thus, when Fred Quimby left in 1955, HB took over both direction and production. Faced with declining budgets, animation quality suffered. Still, this cartoon is entertaining. The faked English accent gets a bit unnerving and Jerry is reduced to a bit part role in this outing. Its quite a departure from the earlier cat vs. mouse conflict that served T&J so well. In later shorts such as Tot Watchers, we even see T&J buddy up as a team. Again, the formula would work if only we hadn't known T&J from a bygone era.

Robert Reynolds This cartoon features the little mouse who was initially named Nibbles, a name that was changed to Tuffy at some point (probably when he became an action hero or shortly thereafter) by the powers that be. Nibbles (excuse me, Tuffy) speaks a great deal here, in order to move the plot along, but, while the dialogue is often funny, after a while, you wish the part had gone to Marcel Marceau. Failing that, at least elocution lessons would seem to have been advisable. Cute cartoon along the lines of the Mouseketeer series, one which has a cautionary warning on the dangers of strong spirits, which may lead the consumer to break out in song at inopportune moments, as well as neglecting to be aware of their surroundings. Well worth watching. Most recommended.

Antzy88 Jerry and Tuffy get news of Robin Hood's capture and imprisonment in a castle where Tom is on guard. The two mice head off to rescue him... This was the last of the Tom & Jerry series to feature Tuffy, and he talks a lot in this one. His voice did grate a little, but one scene involving a drink is hilarious!The cartoon itself may have been the penultimate in the Hanna & Barbera period of the series, but the artwork's not too bad for a cartoon made in the late 1950's. Pretty good cartoon, too...
