I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Just leaving a quick comment before reviewing the cartoon, It really bothers me when people give credits for Fred Quimby being the greatest man involved in these cartoons, when it was clear that it wasn't, all he did was steal credits from William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, in the Oscar ceremonies, he got the statues for himself and didn't even call them once for the ceremonies. This was the first cartoon that Hanna-Barbera did without Fred Quimby in charge, and you can see it, the cartoons got more experimental. Such as the unpopular "Blue Cat Blues", Tom and Jerry teaming up a lot in these cartoons, and other things.Moving to the Review, anyway, this cartoon got some really good sight gags, does a excellent use of the CinemaScope technology (A Thing that I wish that it was still on theaters today), the Music never disappoints, and the animation is really good, as always.The Story is that Little Quacker's Egg hatched under Tom, making him believe that Tom is his mother, and give him all the love, Tom doesn't correspond well, seeing him as meal instead, Jerry sees this, hilarity ensues. This cartoon got a really heartwarming ending and brought a tear to my eye in the end. It's really nice seeing Tom have a change of heart.I Recommend it to everyone that calls himself or herself as a Tom and Jerry fan.

My mum and I once rescued an orphaned duckling. I named it Ducken. It would sit in front of the fire. We gave it to one of those bird sanctuary places. Anyway-aww! This short is just too cute! I love it very much. Who ever couldn't? It's very brief, but so much fun it don't matter. For me all the laughter in this one comes from Quackers the duckling-or rather his hilarious and adorable voice, as provided by Red Coffey. There are several different opinions as to who does the voice, but that's what it says. I really love the humour of Quackers's homely attitude:"now you sit down, Momma, an gimme that spoon!" Three bits that make me laugh featuring him are when he indignantly refuses to believe who his mommy is and slams the book on Jerry, when Tom puts the little onions on his feet, and when he says goodnight to Tom just before he closes the oven door, and Tom pauses while he says it! Sometimes on things of this nature it's the little things that can make you laugh. All my favourites of this show have this particular look to them. Much more humorous than dramatic, although you would surely have to have a heart of stone not to feel a little pang at what the duck says just as he's about to dive into the pot. It's all very lighthearted. I suppose from an adult perspective certain things in this little yarn could be seen as being vaguely "dark". But no child would ever see it that way. The final line, which is also the title, always got a big laugh. The animation is colourful and as always lively and fun. It is only a mere six minutes long so there's not too much to talk about-but who cares about that, it's a classic. It's still as timeless and heartwarming as the day it was released. Fifty years have done little if anything to diminish the simple joy of That's My Mommy. Bye-bye.

I love Tom and Jerry, and I enjoyed That's My Mommy. And yes, I like Little Quacker, he is very engaging and cute, not annoying like some people make him out to be. The cartoon is perhaps too short at only 6 minutes, but it moves very quickly and is very satisfying. The animation is stunning, and the music is a deft touch too. The sight gags are consistently funny, and are delivered thick and fast, but I was most impressed by the ending. And not in a bad way too, it was so unexpected and such a sweetly sentimental way to finish a Tom and Jerry cartoon. Tom is crafty, Jerry is a lot of fun and Little Quacker is really cute I think. Overall, a delightful cartoon, with just the right touch of the funny and the sweet. 9/10 Bethany Cox

"Little Quackers," voiced by Clarence Nash, kills me. Yeah, I really laugh at the little yellow duck and love the material the writers use when he's in these Tom and Jerry cartoons. A lot of the humor, as in this one, is a dark humor and a little more subtle than the usual Tom-Jerry chase scenes. Sometimes I get tired of all the chases so the little duck provides a different kind of humor, although we usually see a similar storyline of Jerry trying to save Quackers from being eaten by Tom.When I say dark humor, I mean early scenes like the one here in which the baby duck hatches by mistake under Tom, thinks the cat is its mother and in seconds, is tied to a spit and being roasted by Tom.Throughout this cartoon, Quackers thinks "mommy" is being nice to him and the whole Tom is preparing him for dinner in various ways! In a way, it's a little sadistic but it's funny and you know Quackers will survive somehow.In fact, the ending is a shocker and just the opposite of the black humor - a real sentimental finish.Highly recommended: lots of laughs and a sweet finish.
