REVIEWER: jesse timbs

After Garfield's unexpected reunion with his long-lost father, ragged alley cat Vic, he and his canine friend Odie are forced from their perfectly pampered lives to join Vic on a risky heist.

Garfield (voiced by Chris Pratt), the world-famous, Monday-hating, lasagna-loving indoor cat, is about to have a wild outdoor adventure! After an unexpected reunion with his long-lost father – scruffy street cat Vic (voiced by Samuel L. Jackson) – Garfield and his canine friend Odie are forced from their perfectly pampered life into joining Vic in a hilarious, high-stakes heist.

​

Unfortunately The Garfield Movie is just a simple heist movie, with a number of distracting subplots and forgettable characters - at least where the adults are concerned. While Chris Pratt is miscast here, the other voice actors do a stellar job. 

​

The animation, from the texture of Garfield’s fur to the world our feline friend inhabits, is incredibly bright, colourful and teeming with life throughout.

​

There are a few great one lines that got a laugh around the cinema, but not much to laugh at for the adults. 

​

While the animation was incredible The Garfield Movie fails to really capture the Garfield spirit we have all come to know over the years.
