'Tom and Jerry': A Bland Cat-and-Mouse Chase

MOVIE REVIEW : 'Tom and Jerry': A Bland Cat-and-Mouse Chase : The formulaic story feels like a rerun and borrows characters from many other classics.

 

CHARLES SOLOMON, SPECIAL TO THE TIMES
"Tom and Jerry--The Movie" (citywide) feels like "Tom and Jerry--The Rerun," as every element in the film seems to have been borrowed from some other animated feature. The title duo is taken from the Oscar-winning cartoon series Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera directed at MGM from 1940 to 1958. All that's missing is the polished animation, razor-sharp timing and slapstick humor that made the cat-and-mouse team so popular.
