Tom's owners move to a new house, but he is distracted by his pursuit of Jerry and is left behind by the moving van. As the film only grossed $3.6 million on a $3.5 million budget, it underperformed at the box office, and was panned by critics, audiences, and fans of the franchise, for its screenplay, direction, musical numbers, and Tom and Jerry's dialogue, while some praised the animation style, voice acting, and Mancini's musical score (one of his final works). The film tells the story about an eight-year-old girl named Robyn Starling, who enlists Tom and Jerry's help to escape from her evil abusive aunt and reunite with her lost and presumed-dead father.Īfter having its world premiere in Germany on October 1, 1992, Tom and Jerry: The Movie was released theatrically in the United States on July 30, 1993, by Miramax Films.
