It may not've been the best send-off but at the same time I liked it for it was. The animation's better than The Mansion Cat in capturing the feel of the original shorts and the story's more interesting. Jerry's training to be a karate master in order to defend himself from Tom who always seems one step ahead of him. This causes his sensei to send the titular character played by Spike. Needless to say it plays like a regular Tom and Jerry cartoon in terms of gags and pacing. I've heard a lot of people consider this a huge letdown but honestly i'm not so sure about that. If you have kids or are a fan of the original shorts I suggest you check it out.
