Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (2017) is a movie I recently watched with my daughter on Tubi. The storyline follows our two friends as they're adopted by a young boy named Charlie. Charlie hears news of the possibility of finding a golden ticket in a chocolate bar that if found grants him admission into a chocolate factory where he may win a bigger prize. Tom, Jerry and Charlie will stop at nothing to find the ticket and hopefully win a prize that could help Charlie and his family.
This movie is directed by Spike Brandt (Back at the Barnyard) and the voices are provided by JP Karliak (Boss Baby), Jess Harnell (Animaniacs), Lincoln Melcher (Mr. Church), Mick Wingert (Avengers Assemble) and Dallas Lovato (No Vacancy).
The animation is actually pretty awesome and it was fun to see Tom and Jerry in this format. Their injection into the storyline was fun but some of the characters weren't as well presented as they could have been. The settings and scenarios are very well presented and entertaining; but unfortunately, Willy Wonka was dry and a bit stale.
Overall, this movie is worth watching once but didn't hit its full potential. This could have been very good with a little better writing. I'd score this a 5.5/10 and recommend watching once.
