FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Baby Butch" is an American cartoon from 1954, so this one is also already over 60 years old. It features the most famous cat-and-mouse duo in film history (probably): Tom & Jerry. And as in many of their other works, a third character is added for reasons to add new plot ideas. This time, it is not Jerry's cousin, who also appears frequently, but it is alley cat Butch. He is hungry and disguises himself as a baby to get "adopted" by Tom and have access to his fridge full of delicacies. But Jerry is equally interested in the food, so Tom is really busy keeping everybody from eating the delicious dishes. (That rhyme was unintended). I thought it was a funny watch and it is among the better installments of the series. They successfully managed to keep the old tradition of Tom chasing Jerry and connecting it with new ideas (everything involving butch). I liked the watch and I recommend it. Thumbs up.

TheLittleSongbird Baby Butch is a thoroughly enjoyable if not outstanding Tom and Jerry cartoon. My only real complaint was the rather predictable story, but everything else was fine. The animation and music are both great, complete with some hilarious sight gags especially the one with the large ham. The pace is furious and fast, not too fast so that the ending feels unsatisfying, because actually the ending was surprising and in a good way. Tom is a little dumb here, while Jerry is still cunning, but it is Butch who steals the show as he disguises himself as a baby to get food. Overall, outstanding no, funny yes. 8/10 Bethany Cox

movieman_kev Butch, an alley cat desperate for some free grub gets the idea of dressing as a baby and having Tom the cat bring him into his house for a big chunk of ham. The ruse works on Tom for a while, but Butch has to contend with Jerry the mouse who wants the ham for himself. I enjoyed this short, most of the gags worked and I laughed out loud a few times. Even if it wasn't really Tom Vs. Jerry and more just Tom and Jerry doing their own thing for most of the length of the short and then Tom and Jerry Vs. Butch. This hilarious animated short can be found on disc 2 of Warner Brother's 2-DVD Spotlight Collection set.My Grade: B-

Antzy88 Butch, a black alleycat, is trying to find food, and spots some at the house where Tom and Jerry live, so he poses as a hungry waif to get him inside where the fully-packed refrigerator is; he just has to find his moment when neither Tom nor Jerry will foil his plan, but this proves tricky... As usual, well-timed gags rule the roost and provide a chuckle or two, even if it isn't exactly a classic.
