It's honestly incredible how dedicated this movie is, and by that I mean, completely ignoring the promise of its premise. All you need to do is put these two characters in a hotel with a bunch of pots and pans and sharp objects and you have a 90 minute classic, but the film consistently goes out of its way to try something different (and worse), with horrible results. Just watch the original shorts, or if you want a fun hybrid of live-action and animation, watch Looney Tunes: Back in Action.
It's ironic this was directed by a guy named Story, considering it was the worst aspect of the film.
If you have HBO Max and you watch this instead of the new Looney Tunes Cartoons you deserve to get an anvil dropped on your head.
I loved Tom and Jerry as a kid, who didn't? Watching a mouse constantly outsmart a cat was hilarious, and with the release of a new animated/live-action hybrid, fans of the franchise were understandably mixed on the idea but still excited nevertheless. However, despite director Tim Story's good intentions and the creative team behind it really trying their best, the film as a whole just doesn't work as well as they hoped.
The live-action/animated mix really doesn't work with both Tom, Jerry, and the myriad of other animals (most notably a very annoying singing pigeon) throwing you out of the film. But that's not exactly the problem here, it's the bland, predictable, and overused storyline that feels better suited to…
Y'know all of these people flexing they watched Cherry (2021) early, but none of them can say they watched Tom & Jerry (2021) early so beat that. 😏
Chloe Grace Moretz said that this movie made her a better actress. Sis, calm down. This movie will most likely earn you a Razzie nomination.
