This is a great, fun, heart-warming, wonderfully clever film. Finally, a movie that. Captures the humor & heart of Jim Davis’s Garfield legacy!
Go. See. It.
While there are some frightening images & suspenseful situations, this film is easily suitable for all ages.
Chris Pratt does a stellar job expressing his inner Garfield while Hannah Waddingham’s voice as the nemesis Is absolutely stellar. Be sure to stay for the super-cute credits and a totally badass song from Waddingham. The lady can WAIL… on-pitch & with feeling!
Editing on this film is tight & keeps the story clipping along with just the right beats.
The story itself rides a razor’s edge of cutting-edge humor coupled with homage to classic cartoon humor of yesteryear. Fresh & just a flat-out FUN ride with moments that strike the feels with perfect pitch & will touch even the most glacial of hearts.
I give THE GARFIELD MOVIE a solid 9 out of 10.
