Bully for Bugs
Bully for Bugs
Bugs Bunny once again making that "wrong turn at Albuquerque" burrows into a bullring, where a magnificent bull is making short work of a toreador. The bull bucks Bugs out of the arena, prompting the bunny to declare "Of course you realize, this means war!" The deft Bugs' arsenal comes plenty packed, as he uses anvils, well-placed face slaps and the bull's horns as a slingshot. The bull fights back, using his horns as a shotgun barrel. The bull's comeback is short-lived; just after Bugs makes out his will, he lures the bull out of the arena, just in time to set up a rube-like device that leads to the bull's defeat.

This cartoon is very funny, I guess. Although I'm not in USA, I still like it, Tom is suffer for the brain damage, he became like a mouse, I had to admit it was funny when Tom is deranged. Jerry, of course, very distressed, decided to bring Tom's amnesia, But fails. Mammy also thought of the idea,too! Still, It's one of my best TOM AND JERRY cartoon!

Mammy Two Shoes clocks Tom on the head with her broom, scrambling his brain, making him think that he is a mouse.A very silly but also very amusing short, Nit-Witty Kitty sees the usually cunning cat believing that he is a huge rodent: he becomes buck-toothed, squeaks, and hops around the house in the search for cheese. He also crams himself into Jerry's mouse hole (ooeerr!), which makes the mouse extremely fed up, especially when Tom breaks his bed. Reading up on the subject, Jerry discovers that another bang on the bonce might set Tom straight and reaches for his baseball bat. Unfortunately, Mammy also has the same idea…What follows is a series of attempts by Jerry to knock some sense into Tom using such items as a baseball bat, a flat iron, and a bowling ball, but to no avail; the one time he is successful at reverting Tom to his feline ways, Mammy enters and bashes Tom back into his mouse persona. It's all very daft, but also very funny.

Well, I have to give the writers credit for "originality" in this one, which plays better than it probably sounds in my review. When I read on the IMDb notes that Tom gets hit on the head and then thinks he's a mouse, it sounded kind of stupid. Maybe the premise was silly, but it turned out to be very funny.I saw sights in here I would never find in any other Tom and Jerry cartoon, such as Tom squeezing into Jerry's mouse-hole and trying to sleep on his bed! Tom's squeaks are funny and it was fun to see him turn the tables on the maid, who was always giving him a hard time. It also was satisfying to see Jerry frustrated, for once, instead of the poor cat being flustered unable to get Jerry.Overall, a more-than-solid Tom and Jerry effort.

In a frantic chase between Tom and Jerry around the black maid's feet, she gets a broom, but hits Tom instead of Jerry. Tom then suffers from amnesia and starts to think and act like a mouse. Jerry learns from a home treatment book that a possible cure is to give Tom a sharp blow on the head. Getting this to happen proves to be a problem...Very amusing cartoon!
