Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBill Murray has said during interviews that he hates that he didn't think to have Garfield say his famous Ghostbusters (1984) line "Dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!" (in the scenes of Odie being introduced to the house) until after all post-production had been completed, and it was too late to add it.
- GoofsThe night Garfield gets kicked out of his house and has to sleep on the porch, he looks into a window and sees Odie sleeping on the bed with Jon with no collar on. At one point when Odie is out on the porch with Garfield, he has the collar on. Then, when Odie runs off the porch to chase a scooter, the collar is gone again.
- Quotes
Jon Arbuckle: What am I gonna do with you?
Garfield: Love me, feed me, never leave me.
- Crazy creditsSome of the opening credits come out from behind things like tree branches and the photographs on Jon's bedroom wall.
- Alternate versionsOn the Spanish dubs of this film, the song "Naranja" is dubbed in English. This is due to the fact the song was written in Spanish.

Featured review
Harmless fun - unfortunately geared towards the kids
Firstly, i really liked the CGI incarnation of everyone favourite cat and i thought Bill Murray provided his voice superbly, capturing his character with perfection. Other than that though Garfield - the movie failed to deliver the essence of the cartoon's produced by Jim Davis. The humour in the original comic strips were entirely geared at the adult generation, not the kids.
I knew the movie would cater for the younger viewer, but i felt that it went overboard a little, and this was detrimental to the films enjoyment. As a family movie it is entertaining, but Garfield - the movie seems to have ignored the comedy that made him everyone's favourite cat; only traces of it still remain.
It's worth watching as a family movie, but for fans of the Jim Davis comic character, it's probably best left alone.
6/10
