Truly the strangest thing about it is the crossover element, with Tom and Jerry either fighting in the background of scenes that don't involve them or getting involved in misadventures while Charlie's story is playing out elsewhere. While the animation isn't dreadful it does look rushed in places, particularly in regards to facial animations. Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory cast JP Karliak ( The Boss Baby: Back in Business) as Wonka, with the story essentially playing out exactly the same.
TOM AND JERRY MOVIES WITCH MOVIE
2017's Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory could be their franchise low, which plays almost like a beat by beat redo of the 1971 movie that just happens to feature Tom and Jerry.
In recent years there was a run of STV adventures that mashed the characters up with random properties, such as Tom and Jerry and the Wizard of Oz. They haven't had much luck with feature-length adventures, however, with 1992's Tom And Jerry: The Movie being a dud. Tom And Jerry are an animated cat and mouse duo whose hijinks have been entertaining audiences for decades.

The movie is considered a classic now, but Dahl famously hated the changes it made to his work and refused to allow an adaptation of sequel book Charlie And The Great Glass Elevator. The novel was later adapted as Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory with Gene Wilder playing Willy Wonka. 1964's Charlie And The Chocolate Factory is arguably his most famous book and sees the titular Charlie find a Golden Ticket and being taken on a tour of a chocolate factory by reclusive owner Willy Wonka. Roald Dahl penned several classic children's novels including The Witches, in addition to writing screenplays like James Bond adventure You Only Live Twice. Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is the crossover nobody asked for, and with good reason.
