Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

One of the best films i have seen

From my favorite movies..

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

I loved Springtime for Thomas, it was a very interesting change of pace as the chases between the legendary cat and mouse duo are not abundant here, instead Tom is head over heels in love with Toodles. Looking at Toodles, it is not hard to see why Tom AND Butch are smitten with her, she is gorgeous! The animation is nice enough if not quite up to scratch with other Tom and Jerry cartoons, and the story does have its predictabilities. But the characters are great and I was glad that there weren't many of them, that way the cartoon is more focused on what it should be focused on, the music is lovely and the visual gags still delight. Overall, a very nice cartoon and an interesting change of pace. 9/10 Bethany Cox

This cartoon might be the ultimate - and wildly exaggerated - example of how us men can make such fools of ourselves over beautiful women. We are just putty in their hands!It's springtime and Tom is love, so much so they doesn't even pay attention when Jerry rips off a large the fur on his back. (This is why I usually root for Tom - and lose, of course.) The cat is staring out the window as the hot feline across the way, who is lounging in a chair reading "Har-Puss Bazaar." Tom is perched at the window just sighing at "Toodles."Some of the sight gags of Tom being totally enraptured by this "woman" are very funny. Jerry doesn't think they are funny and when a little green devil pops out next to him, he hears "Hey, are you going to stand there and let a dame come between you and him?" The devil keeps urging Jerry to do something about the situation because "that dame has him eating out of her hand." Admittedly, Tom looks pretty silly and has lost all sense of dignity over this beautiful pussy with the long lashes.Anyway, the devil's plan is to provide another cat instead of Tom for the woman, so a black alley cat, living in a garbage can, is recruited. This black cat turns out to be hilarious and the rest of the cartoon is the two males bashing the hell out of each other to try to get the female's affections. These guys pull out all the stops!In the end, we get another surprise, and another example of what I mention in the first paragraph. This was a solid Tom and Jerry cartoon and, to me, the year 1946 started ushering in a newer era of their material, more violent but also a lot funnier.

Jerry wakes and figures it's going to be another day of being chased by Tom. Thinking giving Tom a big kick in the ass will get the action started he's surprised to find Tom unresponsive. The reason? Tom is in love with Toodles, the girl cat across the street. He's too head over heels to care about chasing a mouse.Jerry then thinks of a cunning plan to tear his attention away from Toodles by faking a love letter to local alley-cat Butch. It's turns out Butch is more adept at making Toodles swoon and Tom is soon out of the picture as far as dating is concerned.With quite a few inventive moments and loads of visual gags and a nice twist ending, this is certainly one of the better T&J shorts.

Jerry is disappointed to find that Tom has a crush on Toodles, a beautiful female cat that he can see from his window. Jerry, with the help of his evil side, tries to break them up by bringing in rival black cat (who later became known as Butch, after the dog's name changed from Butch to Spike).Very amusing stuff!
