Harockerce What a beautiful movie!

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Baby Puss" is an American 8minute cartoon from 1943, so this one will have its 75th anniversary next year and it is from the dark days of World War II. However, Tom and Jerry were always really unpolitical back then, so you will not see or hear any references about the global political climate during these 8 minutes. They were perhaps also there to have people laugh and distract them from the more important events for a little while. Barbera, Hanna, Berner and Bletcher are all household names when it comes to (MGM) animation from back then, so the premise is there for a good film. But the eventual outcome just wasn't convincing enough. It hardly felt like a Tom & Jerry movie at times because in the center of it all were some alley cats and Tom was just there. Jerry even disappeared for almost the entire second half. And these cats also do not possess the same level of quality like other supporting characters in this universe, like Jerry's nephew. And even if this is still among T&J's most known films today, I can see why it did not receive any recognition from the Oscars like so many other cartoons starring the world's most famous cat and mouse duo. I myself also did not enjoy it too much. The best thing about it was perhaps the music, a whole lot this time, but the comedy simply was not good enough in here. Thumbs-down from me. Not recommended.

phgaynor1 One of the best Tom and Jerry cartoons ever made, enforced by the tribute to Carmen Miranda (who's she? Answer: a Latin American singer with a fruit bowl on her head and with amazing teeth....search her on the internet!!!) All our family get a laugh out of this cartoon and any time we watch it I say it's definitely the best episode out of them all. The facial expressions really set out who the characters are. The singing and dancing lighten the violence with the small cat being done just like the famous singer (Carmen Miranda; see above). Watch it and enjoy. it is a tonic!!!! If I was a teacher, I'd grade it A+++++++!!! (Just to tell you, I'm not a teacher).

BA_Harrison After he is forced to dress up and act like a baby by a sadistic little girl, poor old Tom becomes the victim of bullying by Jerry and a group of nasty alley cats.Tom is physically and verbally attacked for the entire duration of this cartoon by every other character, and, although the level of violence is not particularly any higher than in other episodes, Baby Puss seems more mean spirited than your average T&J adventure. The result just isn't as enjoyable as usual.There is also an overlong musical number which feels rather incongruous, and an unsatisfying ending which sees both Tom and Jerry getting a dose of Castor oil that makes them violently sick (I wanted Tom to turn the tables on his tormentors).

Mary-18 This is one of my favorite Tom and Jerry cartoons. There isn't much plot, but everything that happens is just so delightful, funny, and beautifully animated, it's hard not to love. Tom's bratty alleycat friends are always fun to watch, and Tom is definitely at his most helpless and adorable. For old music fans, Baby Puss features a dozen great old standards brilliantly orchestrated.
