Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
BA_Harrison Aunt Harriet leaves Tom $1m on the condition that he doesn't harm a living thing, even a mouse. Naturally, this gives Jerry free rein to torment Tom, but a cat can only be pushed so far...This one is a fairly predictable example of Tom and Jerry knockabout fun-nothing exceptional, but enjoyable enough for fans of the cat and mouse. Jerry helping himself to Tom's food at every turn is vert amusing, as is his ability to suddenly appear despite Tom's best efforts to distance himself from the rodent (Jerry reappears even after being tricked into leaping out of the window of Tom's Park Avenue penthouse apartment).The finale holds few surprises, with Tom finally losing his patience and attacking Jerry. He's thrown away his fortune, but he's happy!
Michael_Elliott The Million Dollar Cat (1944) *** 1/2 (out of 4) One of the classics in the series, Tom receives a telegram telling him that he's inherited a million dollars but he can only keep it as long as he doesn't hurt anything. Including a mouse. Tom heads to New York City where he's living it up but it doesn't take long for Jerry to show up and begin tormenting him. THE MILLION DOLLAR CAT is the one episode where I can say I really, really hated Jerry. I mean, he's just so vicious and cruel to Tom here that you can't help but hope something happens to him so that Tom can enjoy his life and money. This film features a lot of very funny moments but of course it's all building up to whether or not Tom flips out and gives up on the money. Very fast, very fun and certainly one of the best.
Stephen Holloway In this picture from 1944, Tom gets an telegram that states he inherited a million dollars. Provided he dosen't harm any living creature including an mouse. Jerry loves the clause but Tom dosen't. They end up in Park Avenue in an New York City apartment and throughout the picture, Jerry keeps reminding Tom about the telegram. Which forces Tom to seemingly to make sure Jerry's death was acendental. However, no matter what Tom does, there was Jerry not far behind. They even shared an bed together expect that Jerry pushes tom off the bed and just when Tom is preparing to kill Jerry with an bat, he reminds Tom about the telegram. So, Tom hits himself with the bat. Eventually, Tom's had it and stuffed Jerry's mouth with the telegram,and starts his revenge with Jerry. He tells the audience that he's throwing away an million dollars. But, he's happy and resumes his revenge. Now this is one of an few films that either character speaks as well. I recommend it as well.This picture gets an 8 out of 10.
lennoxxx This is absolutely one of my favorite Tom & Jerry Short! It Starts when Tom is playing dart and jerry is in the goal-table, Tom receive a telegram saying that his masters aunt has left 1 million dollars to Tom, he screams out his happiness and Jerry is wondering why he is so happy, then he goes and read the letter and it says that if Tom hurts a living thing, he loses all his money.. Tom moves to Park Ave and of course Jerry follows him to his new place, and torment him all the time by eating Tom's food, throwing him out the bed, using the shower all the morning knowing that Tom can do nothing to stop him..The next morning Tom is waiting to enter the Bathroom but jerry is in there and he opens the door and take Tom's towel and closes the door and Tom is trying to open the door but fails, He begins to think how he can get rid of Jerry and gets an idea! He writes a paper where it says ''Fire Exit'' and put it in the window and he starts a little Fire and Jerry jumps down the skyscraper and Tom is so happy and go to eat his breakfast but then to his surprise Jerry appears with the cutlery and eat up all Tom's food, throwing food at him and degrade him, Tom get's Furious and tear the Telegram apart and press the teared paper in Jerry's Mouth and screams in anger and destroy the whole table and gets enraged against Jerry and he speaks too! ''Im throwing away a million dollars.. But I'm Still happy!'' And so it ends...Enormously funny entertainment! If you haven't seen it i strongly recommend it!My Grade: A+
