SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
BA_Harrison A baby elephant falls from a moving circus train and rolls into a house, landing in Tom's basket. Jerry befriends the new arrival, disguising it to look like a giant mouse in order to terrorise Tom.In the world of Tom and Jerry, a painted pachyderm (its trunk rolled up and coloured black) looks just like a giant mouse; if you can swallow such a silly concept, then Jerry and Jumbo should deliver lots of laughs, the highlight for me being the classic 'mirror' routine whereby Tom runs to and fro past a gap in the wall, the mouse and the elephant taking it in turns to mimic the cat's movements.There are lots of laughs to be had as Tom tries to figure out what is happening, before the baby elephant's mother arrives and joins in on the fun, becoming an even larger 'mouse', all of which sends the poor cat completely off his rocker.
Robert Reynolds This is a short in the Tom and Jerry series from MGM. There will be spoilers ahead:The short begins with two elephants in an open train car-Mama elephant and her baby. The baby is inexplicably sleeping in the open doorway when he rolls right out of the car, down a slope and right into the home and bed of Tom the cat. The elephant hides and the fun begins, fun being the elephant spooking the daylights out of Tom.First, Tom climbs into bed on top of the elephant, now under Tom's blanket. Tom's startled by the elephant's trunk and while Tom is distracted, the elephant makes a hasty getaway. Hungry, the unknown house guest inhales Tom's milk from his bowl, further disturbing Tom.Tom goes investigating, finds Jerry and blames him for the disappearing milk. Just as Tom is about to bash Jerry, he's rescued by elephant suction power and the two join forces. There's a nice bit with a bag of peanuts which scatters on the floor which Jumbo makes march under the closet door, which tells Tom where they are.The meat of the cartoon is here. Jerry gets the bright idea to paint Jumbo up to look like a large mouse and Tom's nightmare begins. Tom gets pummeled, whacked, squashed and is put upon in general, all while trying to figure out just what's happening. Then Tom starts shooting at Jumbo and Jerry.Mama finds her baby and the stage is set for a beautiful ending. I actually felt sorry for Tom. There's just so much any cat can take!This short is available on DVD and is well worth finding. Recommended.
TheLittleSongbird The cartoon does start off a tad too slow, and the story is on the predictable side. But Jerry and Jumbo is a rock-solid Tom and Jerry cartoon, that is both hilarious and cute. The animation is really nice and colourful as these cartoons usually are, and the music is delightful. The sight gags serve their purpose well too, the best being the running gag of Jumbo sucking things with his trunk with such powerful force, and the ending is very unexpected in a good way. The pacing is in general brisk and efficient, and the characters are great, the best actually being the very cute elephant Jumbo. Overall, a rock-solid cartoon with a lot going for it. 8/10 Bethany Cox
rbverhoef A little circus elephant ends up in the home of Tom and Jerry. When some strange things happen Tom thinks it is Jerry who causes them, but in fact it is the elephant. When Tom gets mad at Jerry the elephant helps the little mouse and they start working together.The short starts a little boring but once the elephant dresses up as a mouse to give Tom a hard time it gets hilarious and I had a very good time.
