User Reviews

So what if it wasn't completely about them?

This movie was based on trying to create a live action Tom and Jerry - one of my favorite childhood shows and it's not easy to come up with or find a way to mix a childhood show and a live action intended for adults so the fact that they did it ( because people that put down low reviews think it's so easy to make or write a movie that's going to be a success which is wrong because it takes effort, perspectives are different and even with the best writers or actors or producers;not every movie is going to be spectacular). What matters is that it had some funny moments, an overall good plot and the cat- mouse relationship which made it great!!
