Tom and Jerry (2020)
COMING SOON TO CINEMAS15 April 2021
Chloë Grace Moretz, Ken Jeong, Michael Peña and Colin Jost (Saturday Night Live) star in this live-action/animated feature that serves as an origin story for the classic Hanna-Barbera characters.
When a new family moves into the house in which Jerry - a small mouse - has been living, Jerry finds himself vying for dominion of his territory with their newly adopted stray cat, Tom. But when an outside threat presents itself to the owners of the house (who both Tom and Jerry are very fond of), the new rivals are forced to work together to protect them.

The New York Times
A sad, desperate attempt to make Tom and Jerry the one thing they never were: cool.

Will fail equally for adults who grew up on Tom and Jerry, and their kids who have never heard of these characters.

Rolling Stone
The actors got cheques. The cat and mouse got to relive their glory days one last time, and no one called them Itchy or Scratchy, not once.

You know you're in for trouble right at the start, when the pigeons begin rapping.

Los Angeles Times
If you're in a mood for this flavour of cartoon violence, you're better off hunting down the classic shorts or episodes of Tom and Jerry's past TV shows.
