The team behind Tom & Jerry boldly steps far away from that, choosing to abide by something closer to what The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle did where they give the classic characters a cel-shaded 3D design. With so many live-action/computer-animated hybrid features based on cartoon properties in the past 20 years, audiences had to endure beloved animated characters such as Scooby-Doo, Garfield, Yogi Bear, and Alvin & The Chipmunks donning realistic CG redesigns. So, instead of stirring up trouble by hiring an exterminator, the hotel hires Tom to evict Jerry and that’s when the fun begins. Jerry happens to move into the hotel right when Kayla lands her gig. When their paths cross in Central Park, their violent cat-and-mouse chase escapades lead them to Kayla (Moretz), a young woman who scams her way into landing a temp job in event planning at one of NYC’s finest hotels on the eve of a celebrity couple’s wedding. Tom is an alley cat who dreams of playing the piano and Jerry is browsing through NYC trying to find a new fancy place to call home.
The film sets the titular duo in the heart of Manhattan, New York. With its live-action/CGI hybrid production, not only does this film do the titular duo justice, but it also marks the best Hanna-Barbera film adaptation to date.

So, a new Tom & Jerry movie was long overdue - one that would honor the legacy of Hanna-Barbera’s iconic creation.
As far as full-length theatrical feature films go, the bar was set so low due to the horrible 1992 movie titled Tom and Jerry: The Movie, which is notorious for being the lowest point in the franchise because it broke Tom & Jerry rule #1: DO NOT MAKE THEM TALK.
