The Invisible Mouse Audience Reviews

Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Lawbolisted Powerful
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Tweekums This 'Tom and Jerry' short opens like most of them do with Tom chasing Jerry. Tom seems to be getting the upper hand until Jerry falls into a bottle of Invisible ink. When he gets out he looks down and sees that he is invisible beneath the waist; he quickly dives back in and when he emerges we can't see him! As he runs off we can only tell where he is because of the effect he has on various objects. Tom is still trying to catch Jerry and is shocked when the cheese he is using to lure Jerry out disappears in front of his eyes. From now on Jerry has the upper hand as he beats, batters, electrocutes and sets fire to Tom! Even when Tom realises that Jerry is now invisible he can't defeat him despite some clever ideas.This is a good 'Tom and Jerry' short; the idea that invisible ink actually makes you invisible has been used in other cartoons but that doesn't make it any less funny. As is often the case Jerry's treatment of Tom is rather sadistic... especially when he slips a book of matches between Tom's tows and sets lights it. One always has to suspend ones disbelief when watching these cartoons but that is especially true here; not only do we have to accept that Jerry is invisible but we also have to believe he can lift fairly heavy objects! The way Jerry becomes visible again at the end was rather fun. Fans of the animated duo should enjoy this one.
TheLittleSongbird I love Tom and Jerry, and The Invisible Mouse was just great fun. The story is basic, but original and amusing, but there are so many reasons why this cartoon works. The animation is top notch, smooth and crisp, and the music has enough energy to sustain interest. The pacing is thick and fast, the sight gags may be predictable to some but I for one found them really clever and hilarious and the chase scenes are typical Tom and Jerry classic fashion. Tom is quite dastardly but oblivious to what's really happened, while Jerry is really funny, although the best gags are when he's invisible, such as when he drinks the milk and Tom believes he's seeing things. Nicely rounded off as well. Overall, another delightful cartoon. 10/10 Bethany Cox
BA_Harrison This particular T & J caper requires its audience to accept the ridiculous conceit that invisible ink can actually turn you invisible. And if you swallow that idea, then you should have no problem with the rest of this so-so cartoon that also features bannisters that split into two, an unoccupied fish bowl conveniently located for dousing flaming feet, and a transparent rodent who can somehow cast a shadow against a wall.Personally, I believe that the makers of this adventure came up with the invisibility idea in order to save them from the trouble of animating one of the main characters, but whatever the reason behind the concept, The Invisible Mouse never manages to be anything other than average.
ccthemovieman-1 After the usual chase scene, Jerry accidentally winds up inside a bottle of invisible ink, which was part of a chemistry set. He quickly discovers he's invisible...so the predictable results occur, meaning he uses his new hidden condition to torment Tom. Jerry often is just defending himself, but often he has sadistic streak in him that torments the cat whenever possible, even when unprovoked.Here, he makes Tom think his eyes are deceiving him when cheese from a mousetrap disappears before his eyes, or milk from a dish. Tom can't take anymore so he tries to sleep this nightmare off, but Jerry sets fire to his paw! Man, I hope little kids didn't ideas watching these cartoons back in the '40s and '50s! I always found Jerry, the little mouse, more evil than cute.Thankfully, in cartoons, generally, whatever damage a character suffers is gone within seconds and he's back to normal. The best part of this cartoon is about two-thirds of the way through when Tom figures out what the story is with Jerry, and tries different methods to detect where the mouse is located (such as putting flour on the floor to see his footprints).
