      Garfield: The Movie (2004) Garfield: The Movie (2004) Garfield: The Movie (2004) Garfield: The Movie (2004) Garfield: The Movie (2004) Garfield: The Movie (2004) Garfield finds himself in an unusual - and perhaps uncomfortable - spot as he tries to pursue an automobile. Garfield finally has an epic story that is as large as his ego - one that can barely be contained by the big screen. Garfield isn't pleased when owner Jon (Breckin Meyer) takes him to the vet. Jon's (Breckin Meyer) attempts to enlist Garfield's help always yield the same result: a snappy retort from the smart-alecky feline. Garfield confronts Odie, a friendly pooch whom the feline sees as an annoying interloper.

      Movie Info

      Based on the popular comic strip, this live-action comedy follows the exploits of Garfield (Bill Murray), the large, lazy and wisecracking cat owned by hapless Jon Arbuckle (Breckin Meyer). Jon's other housemate, Odie, is a dim but sweet dog who frequently annoys Garfield. When the conniving orange feline gets fed up with Odie, he devises a way to get rid of the pooch. However, after Garfield has a change of heart about Odie, he must find a way to get his fellow pet back.

        If Garfield got the hanging of the CGI effects, there would be no way that Garfield can totally outdo himself from making this movie look like a mess.

        This movie stunk. Bll Murray may sound like how I would imagine him, but I never imagined such a horrible movie.

        Nice voice acting from Bill Murray, CGI not bad, but plot is shitty
