Plot:
One stormy night, little Garfield (voiced by Chris Pratt) is left in the shade of a garbage bin by his father Vic (voiced by Samuel L Jackson), as he goes to search for food. Little Garfield sees a boy Jon (voiced by Nicholas Hault) having pizzas at a restaurant across the street and goes to the window. Jon, who is quite lonely himself, is kind enough to offer him his food and then also take him home.
Garfield grows to be a food-loving and home-loving cat, who is having the time of his life, except for the Mondays in which he is taken to the vet. One night, Garfield and Odie, Jon's pet dog, are kidnapped and dragged into a mess that Vic has found himself in. The story that follows, shows how the trio go about their mission in hand, make new friends along, get out of the mess and take their revenge.
What works for The Garfield Movie:
The Garfield Movie is a total joy ride. It is very witty, hilarious and meta. The homage that the film pays to various classics is just outstanding and it will bring a wide smile on your face. Obviously, the animation is first rate. The voice dubbing is terrific. What works in the movie's favour is just how unserious it is. Also, The Garfield Movie is paced so well that you don't get time to go deep and pick on anything in particular.
What doesn't work for The Garfield Movie:
It's not like The Garfield Movie is flawless but as mentioned above, it is paced so well that you don't get time to critically analyse everything. The plot obviously gets silly and bizarre but you buy it all because it is just so much fun and because it doesn't take itself too seriously.
