Garfield - The Movie Customer Reviews (1 - 3 of 62 Reviews)

The worst movie ever made.
This movie has got to be the worst I have ever seen. Garfield written by Jim Davis is a wonderful comic with lots of clever humor. Garfield is my favorite comic of all time. but this movie was nothing like the comic at all. Even Jaws: The Revenge and Batman and Robin can entertain me when I'm really bored. This movie I felt like I was trapped threw the whole thing. Before this movie I believed that every movie could be slightly entertaining, nd then I saw this. If you're a fan of the comicdon't see this movie. Its not Garfield its just a bunch of characters with the same names, that don't act at all like there comic counter parts. I think if I could rate this movie any number I would rate it -10. Its just that bad. Do not by this movie. In fact don't even rent it you aren't missing anything if you don't see it. My final word is that if you want to see the real Garfield just read the comics.

Funny feline film
Bill Murray stars as the voice of Garfield in this live action/CGI film based on the famous Jim Davis comic strip. The only CGI animation in the movie is the character of Garfield, which might sound a little odd but works very well within the context of the film. The plot revolves around the cynical and self-centered Garfield, whose whole world is turned upside down when his owner Jon (Breckin Meyer) adopts a new pet: Odie, a loveable but somewhat dense doggie. Garfield is horrified to find that he is no longer the sole recipient of Jon's affections, and he does everything in his power to mess with Odie and convince Jon to get rid of him. However, a crazy man named Happy Chapman (Stephen Tobolowsky) is intent on putting Odie on television to advance his own struggling career. Chapman ends up kidnapping Odie and it's up to Garfield to save the dog that he loathes but has somehow come to miss having around.

"Garfield: The Movie" is a really cute story that stays true to the spirit of Davis' comic. Murray's voice is the reason the film works so well: he is perfect in the role of the lazy, sarcastic cat! The only real issue I have with this film is that JENNIFER LOVE HEWITT is in it! She plays Jon's pseudo-girlfriend, Liz. What is UP with that?! Hopefully she won't be in the sequel. Other than that, this is a movie that adults and kids will all enjoy.

Real Garfield
What a great idea to make a movie on Garfield! I have seen this and I have to say I prefer the cartoon DVDs but this is great aswell. They are now making a second movie of Garfield which will come out soon I don't know how good it will be but I hope its as good as this. If you are a diehard Garfield fan and have not seen this than you are not a Garfield fan.

Its about Garfield's lazy and very amusing life living with his owner Jon and Jon's other pet Odie. He eats enourmous amounts of food but his favourite is lasagna. However there are villains in this and it is Garfield's job to save Odie from them. Even though Garfield hates Odie he still saves the day.

If you like this than I recommend you get one of the cartoon DVDs such as Holiday Celebration, As Himself, Fantasies, Garfield and Friends Volume 1 - 5. You will not be able to stop yourself from laughing at some of this.

Hilarious as movie! 10/10
