So is this a live-action version of "Tom & Jerry" or a mouse version of "Home Alone"?

decent slapstick, although most of the jokes are not so prominent, they are still classic. The lens language is effective and in place.

The moral is presented very well:
1. "A world without string is chaos."
2. The dream of nouveau riche is unreliable

Ernie: "A quarter? You think so small, Lars. Look at the bigger picture. You have no home , no wife, no money. You have no discernible talents. How can you ignore that?"

Lars: "Ernie, it's Christmas. Instead of dwelling on what we lack, let's be thankful for what we have."

--typical ambition vs The gratitude argument

saw credits and realized that this mouse was not a special effect but was trained! so amazing! King of Rats!

Thomas Muller looks a bit like the male second, and he can take over after retiring. Anyway, they are funny.

    Lars: You are not.

    Ernie: Don't worry about me. Hey, isn't that suit charcoal?

    Lars: No.
