For our Monday Night Family Night this week we went to see "Garfield The Movie". I LOVE Garfield. I have his daily cartoon on My Yahoo page. He makes me smile and I can so relate as we use to have one just like him, only we called him Tigger, after that other orange ball of fur... He ruled our roost too, just like Garfield does :) I like it a lot and it made me laugh throughout with the typical Garfile antics that we have grown so use to over the years. The actors did a fantastic job and finally a movie you can take your little ones to and feel safe. I told my daughter that we would have to get the video when it's out. One for the collection, indeed.
Following is the synopsis from movietickets.com:
Life couldn't be sweeter for Garfield, everyone's favorite feline. Parked on a comfortable chair in front of the television, feasting on his favorite dish, lasagna, and hurling insults at his beleaguered owner Jon, Garfield is the master of his universe. When Jon takes Garfield to visit beautiful veterinarian Liz Wilson, she gives Jon a pepped-up, tail-wagging, panting creature that represents everything that Garfield loathes. Garfield, meet Odie, a lovable, dim-witted dog. The wise-cracking cat is, for the first time in his nine lives, left speechless. The clueless Odie chases his tail till he's dizzy, crashes into walls, and barks without cause, all to the unbridled delight of Jon who eagerly welcomes Odie into his home. Odie turns Garfield's perfect world upside down. Garfield's solution: OUT, DARN DOG. When the hapless hound disappears into the evil clutches of local celebrity Happy Chapman, you would think Garfield would rejoice. But he feels responsible for the fate of another. With uncharacteristic energy, courage and selflessness, Garfield manages to pull himself away from his lazy life and spring into action. He's on the unlikeliest of impossible missions: to save Odie.
