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

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

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

Yes we all know, loved and grew up with the original... but my 6 year old never had a clue what it was. Despite my enthusiasm for the original a lot has changed in live action adaptations over the years and willy wonka, sadly, has lost some of its appeal to modern children. Yes they could have done a straight up animated version - but integrating characters to the story that today's kids are familiar with gives us the opportunity to share a fairly close adaptation of a film we love, in a way that our kids can relate and be drawn into.I can't say this new version annoyed me at all with the changes they made, and my son absolutely loves it - so seeing as it was made for children, what do we know and who are we to judge??? 6/10 from me, 10/10 from my 6 year old for an overall 8/10.

Yeah it's a bad mix up concept of both great classic films being mash together trying to be success but failed miserably ruining the emotional moments with slapstick humor and how its too insensitive to the death of gene welder sure I'll have to give credit for it's animation and for at least trying their best effort but let's face it no matter how many Tom and Jerry films they're gonna release it will always proves that the maker behind this just doesn't get on how to make a Tom and Jerry cartoon in every single flat out inspirational corporate bad idea to begin with also its the first Tom and Jerry cartoon to ever say the word h*ll

I've seen a lot of people disappointed with this film based on comparison with Gene Wilder or the Tom and Jerry they saw when they were a kid.The kids that are going to see this movie are kids that really don't care who is Gene Wilder, and maybe they saw the same Tom and Jerry than you, but also Tom and Jerry kids, New Adventures of Tom and Jerry, Tom y Jerry Show, and other Tom and Jerry movies.So, regarding this movie for that audience:1. It's a good movie. It a copy from the 1971, so if you like your kids know and watch old movies, this is a good choice (Something that did't happened with "Tom and Jerry - Wizard of Oz" where I felt it was a complete different movie) 2. Tom and Jerry really don't affect the main storyline, but they appear constantly, so your kids are never bored with the main story (Something that happened on Tom and Jerry, Robin Hood, at least in my case) 3. The quality of animation it's not the best, but it's OK. It looks like a movie from 2000. 4. The boat trip on the tunnel of terror seems to me is still too frightening for kids

Firstly, the DVD cover claims it's an 'original movie'.Yeah, let's talk about that.This is a huge recreation of the Gene Wilder movie, complete with the look of the movie, the look of the original characters, huge chunks of dialogue, the incidental music as well as the songs, the basic plot. There's the obvious addition of tagalongs Tom and Jerry (and a mouse who wants to be an Oompa Lompa), and a subplot of T&J trying to stop Slugworth when he seemingly sneaks into the factory during the Golden Ticket Tour, but really, 'original movie'? That's chutzpah.The animation hurts. It's like some Eastern European ripoff that would have been made soon after the Gene Wilder movie. The voice actors approximate the original cast voices to varying degrees of success (I find it hard to criticise the voice actors, they're just collecting a paycheck). I'm old, but I'm not so set in my ways that I can't appreciate a good remake - if the remake can bring something good and interesting to its interpretation. This, like that Gus Van Sant Psycho remake, fails that requirement. Though I suppose it will amuse the younger and less demanding demographic.I still wonder why Tom and Jerry are the only animals in this world that can't talk. And why the makers didn't put a warning at the start to tell kids that chocolate is highly toxic to cats and mice and other animals.
