Product description

Tom Sawyer

Amazon.com

The classic Mark Twain book The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is presented here as an animated video featuring the voices and music of country music stars Mark Wills, Lee Ann Womack, Rhett Akins, and Hank Williams Jr. Other famous voices include Betty White and Don Knotts. Twain's general plot is reproduced fairly faithfully: Tom falls in love with Becky, Tom and Huckleberry Finn witness a murder and later risk their lives to save the falsely accused Potter, and Tom and Huck eventually find Red Beard's buried treasure. Subtle elements have been changed for either political correctness or plot convenience: for instance, the name "Injun Joe" has been changed to "Injurin' Joe" and Becky has gained an antagonist father. A not so subtle change is the presentation of the characters as animals: Tom and Becky are cats, Huck is a fox, and Joe is a bear. The video is skillfully animated (much more so than the cover suggests) and the voice talent is excellent. Pop-country music lovers will love featured songs such as "You Can't Keep a Country Boy Down" and "There's a Light at the End of the Tunnel," although they seem more appropriate for adult audiences than the 5- to 12-year-olds this video is aimed at. All in all, this is an entertaining, accessible presentation of a classic story that kids will enjoy. --Tami Horiuchi

This here movie sure is a goodn'!

Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2014

I got to watch this movie by chance bout a week ago and I loved it so much that I just had to get my hands on a copy of it. This DVD copy that was sent to me was in perfect condition with a nice, sturdy case in its original factory sealed plastic. It even came with some adorable collectable stickers inside the case. I highly recommend this movie for anyone who adores animation (the character design, animation, voice acting, soundtrack and background art in this movie are all outstandingly beautiful), tales of adventure and friendship, and/ or country music (the movie features an all-star cast of country music stars as well as recognizable voices such as that of Don Knots) or for anyone who's looking for a good ol' feel-good movie. Yep. This is a goodn'.
Please consider buying and enjoying it.

An MGM Animated Classic

Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2010

Verified Purchase

If you grew up during the 80s and 90s with movies like All Dogs Go to Heaven, Secret of NIMH, Oliver & Company, The Aristocats, Cats Don't Dance, David Copperfield (Sheena Easton), The Rescuers, The Fox and the Hound, The Brave Little Toaster, and others, then this movie is most likely for you.

Tom Sawyer brought me the same special feeling as All Dogs Go to Heaven did about 20 years ago! Perhaps the most notable scene is where Tom and Becky get lost in the cave followed by an excellent song. Before entering the cave, Tom says it's "too dangerous for girls," to which Becky replies "you've got a lot to learn about girls."

I first saw this movie on YouTube and just had to buy it. Beautiful animation and great songs makes this movie a sure MGM classic to enjoy!

I first saw this movie as a kid and fell in love with it! I got the itch to watch it again a few days ago but couldn't find it online. I found it right away for cheap here on Amazon and bought it right away. I think it showed up the next day after I ordered it which was a lot sooner than initially estimated. It works great!

Great Movie!!!

It is great. It should be called "Tom Sawyer: The Musical".
I loved it. Even though some reviewers don't like it, I did.
It is not just for kids. I am 48 years old and I love it.
In some reviews it is mentioned that changing "Injun Joe"
to "Injurin Joe" was done to be politically correct. I think
you are wrong. It was probably done because he was a bear so
he couldn't possibly be called "Injun". He could have been called "Injurin Joe" or "Grizzly Joe" or "Grizzly Bear Joe". They just happen to go with "Injurin Joe". I'm guessing since he was a bear it's the closest they could come and stay
within the confines of the book.

Tom Sawyer truly has 9 lives!

Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2021

As one of the few movies that's part of the limited MGM Animation lineup, the 2000 made-for-video release of Tom Sawyer isn't the first animated version of the original Mark Twain book, but it is the first time they had the cast be made entirely of anthropomorphic animals. This is one of those strange cartoon worlds where the people are animals, but they also have regular "animals" as animals, like Goofy and Pluto from Disney. There was also a strong emphasis on introducing musical numbers into the fray, ususally country music.

Set in a more swampy version of Mississippi, Tom Sawyer is a feline lad that lives with his Aunt Polly and his brother Sidney who ususally snitches on all his shennanigans. Tom is best friends with the orphened Huckleberry Finn, but is suddenly more interested in school more with the cute new girl Becky Thatcher starts going to his class. This begins a slight rivalry between Becky and Tom's original girlfriend Amy, which gives the character alot more airtime in this version of the story than in the original book. Tom and Huck go out looking for a lost pirate treasure in a graveyard one night, to see the resident troublemaker, "Injurin'" Joe, a huge bear with long claws forcing the local yokel Mutt Potter to dig the treasure up. Joe murders a snoopy deputy, leaving Mutt to take the wrap, with Tom and Huck witnessing the whole thing, and getting lost escaping Joe. The two best friends get lost on an island, while everyone in town thinks that they are now dead, but not after crashing their own funeral. Tom and Huck fess up to stop Mutt from getting hanged, but Joe arrives to shut them up, leading to his supposed drowning in the river. Following a victory celebration, Tom and Becky explore the spooky Dead Man's Cave, where it turns out Joe has been living and hiding the treasure. The townsfolk manage to witness Tom outsmarting Joe for the final time, and Amy taking a new liking to Huck, resolving Tom's love triangle.

Upon first look, it appears that MGM was trying to bring back the success they had with Don Bluth's installments in their catalog like The Secret Of NIMH or All Dogs Go To Heaven. Despite that, the character designs have their own unique style to them seperating from looking too much like Looney Tunes. The cast is robust with regular voice over celebrities like Betty White and Don Knotts, plus regular country singers such as Rhett Akins and Mark Willis filling the parts of Tom and Huck. It's unusual for a film intended for children to contain mature subject matter like murder and capitol punishment, however it does represent them in a mostly believeable matter. Plus, kitty Becky Thatcher is sooooo cute!

I love it. Fantastic movie. I am a huge fan of rhett akins and mark wills, so it is a big hit at my house. The other actors are great as well. Never thought i would have this much fun watching it over and over. Betty White rocks in this movie, and Marty Stewart did a stellar job as well. Thank you for this gem. I will treasure it forever. Oh i forgot to mention alecia elliott and lee ann womack. They were fabulous too.

It really covers the adventures of Tom Sawyer, like I have read in Samuel Clemens. A very cute idea using animals to represent the characters. I love the graphics and the comedy, it's a cute movie to watch with family over, and over again!
