The Garfield Movie 

 

I am very thankful I had the money to purchase a copy of The Garfield Movie on DVD. It takes one hundred and one minutes to watch The Garfield Movie from start to finish. I know there are some people that were not very happy that Chris Pratt was voicing Garfield. There are some other more controversial actors in The Garfield Movie. The animation within The Garfield Movie is fantastic. Spoilers will be a part of this review.

The Garfield Movie is a bit of an origin story. We find out about Garfield's dad Vic. We find out about how Garfield meets Jon in The Garfield Movie. We learn that Vic has been checking up on his son for a very long time. Garfield thought Vic abandoned him. We find out later in the movie that Vic was trying to get food when Garfield as a kitten walked off and met Jon. Vic decided that Garfield was better off there. The Garfield Movie introduces us to Jinx as well. She has two dogs that help her out.

Vic pulled a job with Jinx and others many years ago. Jinx got caught and Vic left her. At that point in the movie it looked like Vic had a habit of leaving others behind. We find out later that Vic is not that way with everyone. He has a soft spot in his heart for Garfield. Vic left plenty of others behind and put his own child ahead of his crews. Vic has a bad name around town too.

The Garfield Movie is cute and funny. There is some cartoon violence, and a reference to highly divisive and offensive evolution religious belief. I love when Jon is on hold with this company to help him find his lost pets. That is honestly how many of us feel whenever we must sit on hold on those phone lines. Garfield is a glutton in The Garfield Movie. How can he hold all of that food in?

Jinx is really shady in The Garfield Movie. She demands all of this milk from Vic. Jinx actually calls to turn Vic, Garfield and Odie in. Otto is a bull that helps the crew with planning and training to get to the milk truck in The Garfield Movie. The main security guard lady does her best to stop them. Jinx winds up going back to the pound at the end of The Garfield Movie after failing to kill the crew.
