Garfield: The Movie

Twentieth Century Fox

This animated kid movie has cuteness written all over it in a story that should also appeal to parents.

Life for Garfield (Bill Murray of Lost in Translation) is grand. Sitting on his Barco lounger in front of the TV, he spends the day chilling out, often feasting on his favorite dish, lasagna. Things are going smoothly until his owner Jon (Breckin Meyer of Kate & Leopold) decides to bring a new pooch named Odie into the home. This dimwitted mutt turns Garfield’s world upside down, to the point that his new greatest wish in life is that Odie disappears.

When he is gone, Garfield feels responsible for something, possibly for the first time in his life, and decides to move from in front of the TV, find Odie and bring him back home.

Also stars Jennifer Love Hewitt (Heartbreakers), Alan Cumming (X2) and Nick Cannon (Love Don’t Cost a Thing).
