I love this movie so much

The acting in this movie is really good.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Fed up of the mess being cause by Jerry the mouse, Mammy Two Shoes give her two cats, Tom and Butch, an ultimatum... the one of them who catches the mouse can stay; the other is out! They quickly start searching the house and are joined by Jerry; when they actually realise he is right there they start fighting over him. What follows isn't totally unexpected but is still funny; they have a duel, a boxing match and even try to disguise them selves as Mammy Two Shoes... with the inevitable results!There is plenty to laugh at here although the generic setting makes it a fairly forgettable entry in the series. Highlights were the duel where only one of them had a real gun and later when they took turns dressing up as Mammy Two Shoes to trick each other then attacked the real Mammy Two Shoes thinking it was the other cat! The animation was as sharp as one would expect from the era and Lillian Randolph is great as the voice of Mammy Two Shoes.

Tom and 'ex-arch-enemy-turned-best-friend' Butch, are read the riot act by Mammy Two Shoes, who is fed up with the mouse that is raiding her fridge. She tells the two useless felines that whoever fails to catch the rodent will be turfed out of the house. Naturally, this pits the two moggies against each other in a battle to capture poor Jerry.Not terrible, but way too predictable to be anything special, A Mouse in the House features the usual plethora of slapstick and violence, without adding anything particularly new to the formula.A fun ending, which sees both cats AND Jerry booted out the front door, ends the action on a satisfying note, but it's not enough to make this cartoon worth recommending.

This story is a familiar one in the long-running Tom and Jerry cartoons, especially in the 1940s, the only difference being that two cats instead of one are threatened to be evicted if they don't catch the mouse (Jerry). Tom has an unnamed buddy ("Butch?") living in the house with him, so this really upsets "Mammy Two Shoes" who can't believe that they have a mouse despite TWO cats in the house.Anyway, the one who catches Jerry can stay while the other gets the boot, so the competition is on!Even though it's familiar territory I still enjoyed this because the cartoon had enough original sight gags to make entertaining. You not only had the cats competing against each but Jerry in the equation as well, so there were enough good gags to definitely recommend if you are a Tom & Jerry fan.

In this cartoon Mammy-Two-Shoes (not dubbed to be less 'offensive' in the one I saw) is devastated to learn that there is a mouse in the house and he's eating all the food and making a mess. So far, so typical. She gives the two lazy cats (Tom and someone else who isn't named) and ultimatum-the one that catches Jerry will not be thrown out.Cue the usual chases around the house and tricks using household objects in a cartoon that is so generic and formulaic it's almost a cut and paste of many other T&J shorts strung along in succession for 7 minutes. Yes, there are laughs, but it's utterly forgettable and average at best.
