Grey the Dot’s review published on Letterboxd:
Yeah, I'll just kidnap this random street cat, he'll be my entire crew for the voyage.
I guess this also started the trend of putting Tom & Jerry into stories that aren't actually about them. Like, this is Moby Dick with Tom & Jerry dicking around at the sides. Making them side characters in their own series. Tho this isn't even close to as bad as later movies would be.
