Review – Garfield

All the charm – or lack of same – of the comic strip cat translates to a computer-animated version for the big screen. Bill Murray was the perfect choice to voice the obnoxious feline, and the rest of the cast does a fine job in their cartoony roles as well. I suppose you should seriously be in the mood for such goofy crap before you sit down to watch this, and for many people that mood might never strike. I further think I might have enjoyed it if I hadn’t watched it shortly after seeing Shrek 2 for the first time. The animated orange cat in that one was way better than here. That aside, however, if you don’t expect too much going in then you won’t be disappointed coming out. Mildly amusing
