When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

George buys Joan a pet for her birthday: irritating duckling Quackers (what a crap present). When the couple go out for the evening, Tom sneaks into the house to try and eat the feathered fellow, but Quackers discovers a way to evade Tom.In 1947, Jerry used invisible ink to disappear and cause havoc for Tom; in this 1958 cartoon, Jerry and his pal Quackers use vanishing cream to pull the same trick. Not only is the basic idea uninspired, but so are the gags, making this one little more than a passable caper.

"The Vanishing Duck" is a cartoon starring Tom & Jerry from the later days of the duo and the two are joined by a little cute duckling here. He (and Jerry) use vanishing cream in order to pull pranks on Tom. But as an exception to the rule, Tom has the last laugh this time. The film runs for slightly under 7 minutes as they usually do and is from almost 60 years ago already. The duck was sometimes difficult to understand, but cuteness prevails and that's why he appeared on several occasions in these cartoons, always voiced by Red Coffey. The voice acting here is clearly inspired by the Disney ducks. I thought this was an okay film, not the best or worst I have seen from the famous cat&mouse duo. Overall I give this one a thumbs-up. Worth checking out for cartoon lovers. Good morning, good morning. Good morning to you.

The Vanishing Duck is not a masterpiece, nor was I was expecting it to be. The animation quality is not as good as before, Tom and Jerry have been drawn much better, the backgrounds are not as smooth and there were some I feel overly-bright colours. The story has a very similar scenario to The Invisible Mouse, though not as inspired or funny. However there is much to like as is mostly the case with Tom and Jerry(I say mostly because after 1958 the output wasn't a patch on their earlier cartoons). The music is very catchy and zesty with some beautiful and dynamic orchestration. The gags are fun and clever, and delivered in a brisk fashion. Tom and Jerry are likable, Tom being the butt of the violence but becoming more vengeful later and Jerry as cute and cunning as ever. Little Quacker is very endearing. All in all, not masterpiece Tom and Jerry but entertaining Tom and Jerry all the same, which is still fine for me. 8/10 Bethany Cox

What a chaotic world this would be if "vanishing cream" was literally that, and enabled one to totally "disappear." It does in this Tom and Jerry cartoon as the little yellow duck "Quackers" discovers after being delivered as a gift by George to his wife Joan. They are the owners of the house in which Tom and Jerry live. George takes Joan out for dinner and a show and thinks the bird is safe from the cat, who is locked out of the house. But Tom has a secret entrance and soon, Quackers is in trouble....until he discovers the cream and lets Jerry in on the ruse. From that point, they brutalize Tom, until the very end when Tom gets wise. Tom gets a little revenge on his own. Thus, everyone "gets in their licks" in this one, which should please most fans of this animated series.
