Looking at the new tom and jerry movie "Tom and Jerry:A Nutcracker Tale" you might think that it'll be awful like some of the others T&J movies that they have made. However this is not the case. If you are a purist as I am, and am a true fan of the original Tom and Jerrys then this is the movie for you. This movie written by Joe Barbera and Directed by Spike Brandt and Tony Cervone, has true character, and the animation from this DTV is surprisingly wonderful and impressive. The story shows real character and wonderful graphics to the music of the nutcracker. The real history behind this movie is that Joe Barbera loved Christmas Time. He always believed that the music of the nutcracker fit perfectly with Tom and Jerry. I can also imagine that this movie was difficult to make considering that T&J are hard characters to master, a small DTV budget, and creating an epic adventure that lasts more than more than 7 minutes. So you may ask "Did they succeed?", "Does the movie live up to the original style and humor in which T&J were made?". This can all be answered in one simple word. Yes.
It was nice to watch growing up as a kid. There was a great blend of slapstick and heart in this short. It's basically a retelling of the eponymous take we know just with Tom and Jerry so there's not much to say really. Even so, it's still enjoyable. I like the toys Jerry and stuffy journey with as well as the gags you'd expect.
If you have little kids, they'll enjoy it. Adults I think will like it to. Pop it in if you're in a jolly mood and see for yourself.

This clever rendition of the Nutcracker brought the music alive for my four year old granddaughter. We watched this movie several times over the holidays- at her request. Later when she heard the music she could remember the action of the cartoon- the tie in helped her to enjoy the music throughout the season. The story was sweet and appropriate for young children- the target audience. Characters were plentiful with interesting personalities. There were enough clever jokes and asides to keep adults chuckling. Perhaps the most difficult thing for old viewers to this new version of Tom & Jerry is the talking! Whereas the older cartoons were mostly silent and easy to send around the world, this cartoon has the other characters talking. The Nutcracker music has been performed as ballet all over the world, as a horse-back production in Chicago and now as a Tom & Jerry cartoon for a new generation used to Little Einstein and his musical escapades.

Yeah, it's soon 2023, late December..
And while I was makinnn some list for this winter holidays, I was in search and for animation..

As someone who grow up watchinn Tom and Jerry!
Of course, original series, all episodes, how many times on repeat!
But, interesting, that was all, and, when I saw this, I checked, and I saw they made actually many movies, specials, series, etc.. but few and in that holiday atmospher, and this was first on my list, and let me tell you!!
First, I told myself, I have to check all what they've made!
But, slow down my reindeers, let's first for holidays!
And this one!
It's perfect! It's one of the most beautiful, not only animation, but and usually one of the best winter holidays movies/specials I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot!
It's Tom and Jerry, it's like original series, but in higher resolution, it has even that atmosphere, that feeling, that excitment, that adventure, that funny moments, oh, so many funny moments, I haven't laugh like this since.. ah, since I was that kid who used to watch them every day, eatinn sometinn while they have fun!
I lost in their world, like I was little kid again, (and kinda never wanted to get back), yeah, it's that good, keeps you in completely!
It's too beautiful!
It has that well known great sense for music!
That classics!
And it's from first to the last moment!
It makes this great, if I haven't mention it, great story, even better note!
It really brings that holiday atmosphere!
It's everything!
Beautiful! Magical!
I completely recommend!
It'll bring finest vibes of winter, holidays, etc..
Hidden gem!

"Tom and Jerry: A Nutcracker Tale"
This movie is as stunning as I watched The Cat Concerto many years ago.After Warner took over Tom and Jerry, the music feature of Tom and Jerry is the most retained one.I am really like it.
