Something happend with Garfield – A Tale of Two Kitties that has almost NEVER happened with a movie in our house. My kids (aged 7 and 5) asked me to turn off the movie becuase they hated it so much. My daughter called it ‘Stupid’ and my Son said ‘it sucked’. They both LOVED the first Garfiled, and they often will sit through films that are less than amazing (like The Pacifier and Shark Boy and Lava Girl), but they hated this movie so much they asked to have it turned off.

This was such a great movie. Nothing of real value to talk about in this review–sorry.

This was absolutely one of the worst movies ever made. Even my 10 year old daughter was looking for the exit about half way through. Don’t waste your time or your hard-earned money!

Yes, I was very disappointed with the first Garfield movie, but I saw both movies for a reasonable price so I bought them. While I watched the first movie again, and my opinion hadn’t changed, I’d heard good things about the second Garfield movie. Plus, it’s got Billy Connolly in it – where can you go wrong there?
The one plus point about this movie is Breckin Meyer doesn’t appear very much. I like Breckin, but I just don’t think he’s the right actor to play Jon. It doesn’t match what I see in my head, or the cartoons. Neither does Odie, but don’t even get me started on that.
The basic, simplistic plot line goes like this: Garfield ends up in Jon’s suitcase, when he follows Liz to London to propose. Garfield ends up going to see the sights, and gets confused with a rich aristoCAT (voiced by a very posh Tim Curry). The rich aristoCAT gets confused with Garfield, and each go to the wrong homes. Cue lots of mishaps, some funny moments, although few and far between, and Billy Connolly being quite unfunny.
The best thing about the DVD? The extras. You get to see THE Jim Davis draw Garfield, Odie & Pooky, and show you the steps of how to go about drawing them. He also draws a DVD exclusive comic strip, and it takes FOUR people to ink it, colour it etc. WOW! For one, three frame comic strip. The rest of the extras include your standard games, and a featurette about the animals/trainers involved in the movie.
Am I disappointed by both movies? Yes I am, I hope to god there’s either not another movie, or it’s a lot better. Because quite frankly, I so prefer the books or the TV shows. You just can’t fault them.
