    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Bill 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.
    • Goofs
      When Jon is driving into his driveway after picking up Odie, you can see into the back seat of the car and see that Garfield isn't there.
    • Quotes

      Jon Arbuckle: What am I gonna do with you?

      Garfield: Love me, feed me, never leave me.

    • Crazy credits
      During the end credits, there are still photos.
    • Alternate versions
      On 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.

    Quite a good kids movie.

    I don't see why people blast this movie so much. It is funny, well acted and well animated. Breckin Meyer plays the nerdy Jon very well and acts like the pet loving dork that we loved so much in the cartoon. Garfield looks amazing, almost identical to what he looked like in the cartoon. Bill Murray is perfect to play him and his voice is similar to Lorenzo Music. They included all the trates of Garfield- lasagne, TV and being a lazy fat cat. Thye kept Odie the moronic but lovable dog. They kept the fact that Garfield has an agreement with the mice and gets on with them. They kept Liz the vet, which brings so much more to Jon. This is a great kids movie, that i am sure adults who watched this as a kid will love too.
