Garfield is back and this time Garfield and his canine sidekick Odie follows their owner, Jon Arbuckle, to England, the U.K. may never recover, as Garfield is mistaken for a look-alike, regal cat who has inherited a castle. Garfield savors the royal treatment afforded by his loyal four-legged subjects, but his reign is in jeopardy! The evil nefarious stubborn Lord Dargis is determined to do away with Garfield, so he can turn the castle into a resort. Garfield's bigger, better, more perfect world is soon turned upside down in this tale of two kitties. Written by

Quotes
Preston:
Hogwash! This cat is mocking us at every turn.
Winston:
Preston, calm yourself. He's only doing what's best for us.
Preston:
How much longer should we sustain this charade?
[Garfield peeks into the door]
Preston:
I can't believe this cat is so stupid as to think he is actually erotic.
Winston:
Well, he does. And house cat or not, we need him.
Garfield:
Wha - ? House cat?
Winston:
Just have a little patience.
Preston:
Patience? Fine. Admit it, Winston. This buffoon couldn't groom the paws of a real king.
Garfield:
Buffoon?

This is one of those movies where how you rate it depends greatly upon how you consume it. I took my three young ones (5,6 and 7) to see this and they were fully delighted. At just over 90-minutes it fits fully into their attention span. No one gets (really) hurt, there are talking animals, and the bad guy gets it real good in the end. For family consumption, it gets a 10.
Otherwise, this is a pretty bland movie and is firmly set to entertain young ones. The story is fairly bland, the acting is 'nice' and the music is 'nice', the bad guy is really 'bad', and all the grown ups are generally silly and two-dimensional. For a date movie this gets a 2.
In general, this is a good movie to enjoy a fearless Saturday afternoon out with your kids.
