Kitty Foiled

Tom can't seem to catch a break-he not only has Jerry to chase (difficult in and of itself, as witness his monumental failure rate), but a little yellow bird sticks his beak in matters at the most inopportune (for Tom) moments. An important object lesson is taught to the two allies at a point of seeming success: premature celebration may be hazardous to one's longevity of health and/or life. Save the congratulations for a safer time and place. Most entertaining and executed short from when Tom and Jerry were definitely in flower. Well worth watching and most highly recommended.

This is was the first Tom and Jerry decent episode after Dr, Jekyll and Mr. Mouse in my opinion! This episode is really good and funny in my opinion, this episode has a good animation and sountrack. This episode is a way better than the 1947 crappy episodes, they were too bad and bald in my opinion!

I would rate this as 10/10

I wouldn't want to let my daughter see it because it's not for kids to sit down and see, as in with gun that they put in there and also with the look that was on Tom's face when he was on the train.

I wouldn't want to see it again because it's not funny.

I did see this one when it was on TV long before I started high school and I don't believe that I laughed when I saw it back then. The ones(that wrote this one)probably got ideas from other cartoons.

What you have here is too violent and STILL too violent, so, that's why I only gave it a 1star review. I'm sorry if I did it but I had to do it.

And it also wasn't fun for me to see.

Another routine Tom and Jerry escapade, Kitty Foiled is given the 'new character' treatment in an effort to disguise the fact that we've seen most of the gags before.

This time around, Jerry is given a hand (or, rather, a wing) in his fight against Tom by a cute canary; together, the little bird and the plucky mouse are more than a match for the cat, repeatedly teaching him to pick on someone his own size by violently smashing, bashing and generally hurting the poor moggy (who, let's face it, is just following his natural instincts!!!).

Towards the end of this rather tedious episode there are one or two moments that shine (the cat caught in the bear rug gag, and the bowling ball bomb), but, in general, this is one of the duo's lesser efforts.

Tom is wrecking the house, smashing everything in sight with a broom while trying to hit Jerry. The little canary in the bird cage sees Jerry in big trouble, gets out his cage and comes to the mouse's rescue. Jerry then chases the bird, and he when he's got him and ready to move in for the kill, Jerry returns the favor and rescues the little yellow-feathered guy.

Those two then escape for a breather in Jerry's mouse hole. They shake hands and become a team, doing battle with the cat.

The whole cartoon has a lot of funny and clever scenes. This is one of the better Tom and Jerry efforts and makes me realize once again how talented there writers were on these animated short subjects. This is "Exhibit A" why these cartoons were so popular.
