TOM AND JERRY: THE MAGIC RING (Video Release USA 2001)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.0|5.0 Starsìììì

Tom and Jerry: The Magic Ring—cute and worth a watch—faithfully captures the original Tom and Jerry cartoons from the 1940s forward. It’s a good trip down memory lane for adults and excellent entertainment for children. Great work for Director James T. Walker for capturing the original intent of those cartoons.
