| Features• The fast and furr-ious Tom and Jerry are at it again. They cause fireworks in Yankee Doodle Mouse, hit the beach in Salt Water Tabby, tear up the links in Tee For Two and crack the ice in Mice Follies. Tom plays piano in The Cat Concerto, plucks strings in Solid Serenade, and lends vocals to Zoot Cat, while Jerry duets in Johann Mouse. Jerry transforms in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Mouse, and becomes a Mo
Great choiceMy daughter who is 4 got this DVD for christmas, she loves Tom and Jerry, we chose this one because of all the nice reviews and I have to agree with them all.
Just as I remember...These cartoons are just as I remember them! My kids (8, 4 & 2) enjoy them and laugh hysterically when they watch them. I don't feel one way or the other about the editing issue. As a 'brown' girl watching Tom & Jerry, I always hated the way the brown lady was portrayed in the cartoons, almost ape like with huge round fingers, a huge body, and very unflattering clothes, while the white lady was small and dainty, and very lady like. I didn't care for the black face themes either. Can you blame me?! When my kids started watching Tom & Jerry, I cringed inside when they first saw those same images. HOWEVER, as my parents did with me, I took the opportunity to explain to my 8 year old what times were like back then and how some people viewed, mocked and humiliated people who look like us on stage, in movies and in cartoons. Right or wrong, politically incorrect or not, it's a part of our (American) history and worth discussing with our children. Just my humble opinion! Enjoy these cartoons...they are classics that can never be duplicated!
Good SelectionTom & Jerry was always a childhood favorite. My son has seen a few episodes on TV. His face lit up when he saw the DVD. Laughter fills the room when he watches it. Good quality and some classic episodes.
Great for my 4 & 6 year oldWe've had this DVD for several years & it is still my kids favorite. They love T&J!
Tons of funI bought this dvd for my 6 year old GS. He loves the fast pace of Tom and Jerry. If you can find something to keep a 6 year old intertained its worth the money.
Product DescriptionTOM & JERRY GREATEST CHASES (DVD/ST)
Amazon.comClassic cartoon fans will delight in the bevy of classic Tom and Jerry animated shorts, each of which ends in the proclamation "Made in Hollywood, U.S.A.," and most of which are from the '40s. Fifteen episodes (totaling more than an hour) are featured. Included are: "The Cat Concerto," "Johann Mouse," "The Little Orphan," "Yankee Doodle Mouse," "Salt Water Tabby," "Tee for Two," "Solid Serenade," "Zoot Cat," "Johann Mouse," "Dr. Jekyll" and Mr. Mouse," "Mouse in Manhattan," "Kitty Foiled," "The Little Orphan," and "Jerry's Diary." It might surprise more mature viewers, with fond recollections of the adventures of the gray cat and the little mouse, how relentlessly violent (albeit cartoon violence) the 'toons are. This video, a collection of chase-centric films, is notably chock full of head bangin', body bashing, poisoning, and all-around disorder. The absolute highlight are two shorts low on smashin' and high on entertainment: "The Cat Concerto" and "Mouse in Manhattan," the first with Tom as the focus and the second with Jerry. They both involve forays into entertainment, a great soundtrack, and a fun story. The DVD edition adds "The Worry Song" from Anchors Aweigh, the classic showcase of the amazing (and oft-copied) duet of animation and live action, as Jerry dances with the wonderful Gene Kelly. Contrasted with the PC content of today's 'toons, Tom and Jerry is a literal blast from the past--a must for collectors, and for parents comfortable with explaining that Tom isn't really burned to ashes, and Jerry hasn't been beheaded. --N.F.
