Critics Consensus

The Garfield Movie rolls along at a zany enough clip to be diverting for kids, but this animated adventure doesn't much resemble Jim Davis' iconically grumpy creation.

Mark Kermode

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

Hyperkinetic stuff, lots of famous voice stars, almost no relationship to the original source... it just let me thinking of Bill Murray.

Jake Wilson

The Age (Australia)

As [Garfield] used to say, “Big fat hairy deal”. What more is there to add?

Rated: 1.5/5

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

This animated take on the adventures of the plus-sized ginger sourpuss is a refreshing step up from the lazy, lasagne-based humour of the live(ish) action versions.

Rated: 4/5

Mike McGranaghan

Aisle Seat

A movie that has name-brand value yet isn’t faithful to its own source material.

Rated: 2/4

Chris Wasser

Sunday Independent (Ireland)

I guess the baby Garfield origins bit is lovely. But the rest is just noise, and there is little evidence to suggest that anyone involved with this ugly, uninspired and largely unfunny feature is even remotely familiar with Davis’s original comic strip.

Rated: 2/5

Leigh Paatsch

Herald Sun (Australia)

Weirdly, the second half of the movie feels as like quite a rushed knock-off of the same plot used for the classic kids flick Chicken Run.

Rated: 2.5/5
