Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

I saw this and will admit that I was bored and didn't really feel like watching it, but decided to. The beginning was really boring and made me consider skipping it like I did a few others. I was in that meh mood. The beginning had a song, and a mouse wishing to be part of the nutcracker. Ends up in a tale that seems typical. Waited for the funny humor and mostly just got the plot. It was okay...The only real interesting thing was the way the 'lands' were. They were really large rooms and when you got to a certain point you'd hit the wall which would bounce. You could rip the wall like paper to get to the next room. It was really interesting concept. A few of the characters were interesting but in general it just seemed to be meh.I was rather frustrated that the rocking horse toy revealed everything. She seemed so scared yet the movie seemed to imply that she couldn't help it and was afraid of being in trouble. But on the positive side I found the toy maker's workshop to be cool, with the toys he made to represent the many scenes we had previously scene.But all in all, I'll just rated it 6/10. Could have been a bit better...

This is neither Tom and Jerry, nor The Nutcracker. It's cheaply animated, horribly voiced, and to top it off heavy-handedly spouts religious propaganda. "Of course there's a toymaker! We were made by SOMEBODY!" "Follow the star!" Jerry is trapped at the bottom of a frozen pond and a heavenly light shines down on him, giving him the strength to break free of the vine binding him to the pond floor. Sick.In addition to the awful animation and voice acting, there is no real story to the cartoon at all. It's a bunch of unrelated plot lines stitched together with what might have once been the base tale of the Nutcracker. The entire debacle feels disconnected from itself. Skip it.

I read the post before...I think he/she never saw an original tom and jerry before....it has nothing to do with the original, even the faces are drawn wrong...and when the hell was so much talking and crappy singing in the original?? this is wrong. It's the first time I comment on something because this kind of remakes are destroying the good old memories and mocking the work of all the talented people who worked so hard back then for the magic to happen. I think it's important to say something about this so the next time someone thinks about "remaking" better do a very good job. It's such a pity the kids today will prefer monsters and anime kind of things just because the old school is so poorly represented.

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.
