The greatest movie ever made..!

Don't listen to the negative reviews

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

"The Missing Mouse" is a cartoon from 1953, so this one has its 65th anniversary next year. The title makes obvious that this is either a Disney Mickey cartoon or an MGM Tom and Jerry cartoon and with the collaboration of Hanna, Barbera and Quimby, it is of course the latter. This is not one of the earliest works still, but one of the more (maybe most) famous cartoons starring the world's famous cat and mouse duo from the 1950s. It is also shorter than the early ones who made it to 8 minutes occasionally. This one here runs for 6 minutes roughly. It starts with the usual chase sequences, but then we find out that a white mouse is on the run from a laboratory and it is on the danger of exploding. Jerry soaked in powder or milk or anything hears it too and starts pulling pranks on Tom for the rest of the film. Until he ends up in the water and the color vanishes. But this is when the real white mouse shows up and Tom thinks it's Jerry again. These moments of Tom realizing it is the real white mouse and then hearing it is not a danger anymore were maybe the funniest from this short film. It was also interesting to see Jerry in a different color I think. The comedy was okay, not too good, not too bad. The story was a bit absurd. And how did Nelly Furtado say already, there is a lot of sh*t on the radio. All in all, not one of the best or worst Tom and Jerry cartoons. Worth checking out overall.

A white mouse has escaped from a laboratory having swallowed a very volatile explosive; when Jerry accidentally gets covered in shoe whitener, Tom mistakes his long-time adversary for the missing hazardous rodent—a fact that Jerry takes advantage of whenever possible!For the most part, this is a fairly routine T&J cartoon that delivers predictable laughs, but there's one particular scene that qualifies this as absolutely unmissable for fans of the chaotic cat and mouse: Tom tries to stop a flat iron from landing on his face by blowing it back into the air with his mouth, the poor cat turning purple with the effort before the inevitable happens. Perfectly executed and absolutely hilarious, this easily ranks amongst my favourite T&J moments, making The Missing Mouse worth a rating of at least 7/10.

I have been vocal before about how much I love Tom and Jerry, and this episode is no exception. The Missing Mouse is enormously entertaining, and for any Tom and Jerry fan it is what I feel a must-watch! The gags come by thick and fast, and there are lots of them. Either way, you are guaranteed a lot of laughs. The animation is beautiful, the music is excellent and seeing Tom's sly smile again is priceless. The ending is kind of sad though, but the explosion was fantastic audibly. The way Jerry outsmarts Tom here is a delight to see always and he does it here in a very entertaining way.Overall, I think this is outstanding and definitely worth watching. 10/10 Bethany Cox

Tom mistakes Jerry for an escaped lab mouse which will produce an a-bomb proportioned explosion even with the slightest hit. Violently funny situations occur as the white bleached Jerry torments Tom by threatening to fall down or hit himself with a claw hammer, and of course he loses the bleach without realizing it, quite predictably I might add.I'm unsure whether I've seen Jerry get this much hammering (literally) in any of these cartoons. Usually it's Tom who suffers but this time he only gets the token iron on his face and some of that hammering as well. What really struck me was that the real lab mouse - a cute and benevolent little rodent without the violent streak Jerry has - in the explodes in Tom's face and while Tom survives the blast that wrecks at least the house (or even the city?), the lab mouse apparently goes to meet its creator.I don't know whether Hanna/Barbera acknowledged this problem in this kids' film, but this is pretty shocking to me. Nobody really don't die in these films unless were talking about Itchy and Scratchy, and even if they do, we're shown how their souls leave their body and ascend/descend to heaven/hell in some amusing way, but at least they're back in the next film.The lab mouse never resurrected.
