It's alright

I was really interested in this movie because Tom and Jerry was my childhood!

I've watch the movie from start to finish and I got to say, it's alright.

At the start, it features Tom and Jerry searching for something to eat. They meet Charlie Bucket, a boy from a poor family. They later come across a wonka bar delivery driver, who turns out to be Spike, who later turns out to be a minion of evil chocolate factory owner called Slugworth.

The movie basically follows the story of Roald Dahl's Charlie and the chocolate factory, but with the Tom and Jerry skits going on in the background, which I didn't really have a problem with. Tuffy is also in this movie, as an Oompa Loompa, and a few cameo scenes of Droopy as a Mexican stereotype? Ok.

They were a few goofs as well. The animation was great but the facial expressions were a tad bit odd. Second, a part of the film didn't really make sense. Basically, Slugworth was the villan, trying to steal a gobstopper from Wonka's factory in order to make his business bloom. But after Tom, Charlie and Jerry got rid of Slugworth, he shortly returned as a good guy and a friend of Wonka. Why he was being evil all along was because he was just looking for a heir and was afraid Tom and Jerry would INTERFERE with his plan... I mean, they did? Didn't they?? Aaaargh, confusion.

Anyway, the voice acting was ok I guess, but felt like they didn't even try. Even Willy Wonka seemed he wanted to rethink life.

Overall, it's good for a kids film. A theatrical Tom and Jerry movie is in the works, hopefully they don't screw up with that...
