The GARFIELD Movie review - Love It Or Leave It ?




By Edgar Allan Yu

Garfield, the iconic orange tabby cat, is back on the big screen in a brand new movie that's sure to delight fans. With his signature lazy demeanor, witty one-liners, and insatiable appetite for pizza and lasagna, Garfield embarks on a thrilling adventure that combines action, humor, and heartwarming moments.  

The animation in this latest Garfield feature film is quite impressive, bringing the beloved feline to life with stunning visuals and attention to detail. The voice acting is equally noteworthy, especially Chris Pratt and Samuel L. Jackson, who plays Garfield, and Garfield's dad, Vic.  The rest of the cast also captures the essence of the characters they portray. 



This new Garfield movie has received a lot of criticism from long-time fans of the iconic cartoon cat. However, I believe these critics are missing the mark. While it may not be the same Garfield that older audiences are familiar with, that doesn't mean the film doesn't have value.

The reality is, this movie isn't made for the nostalgic adult crowd - it's made for a new generation of kids who are discovering Garfield for the first time. And for those young viewers, I'm confident they will find a lot to enjoy in this fresh take on the character.

Sure, die-hard fans may not appreciate the changes, but we have to remember that entertainment evolves over time. What resonated with audiences decades ago may not click with today's youth. The filmmakers have put a modern spin on Garfield, and that's exactly what will appeal to the target demographic.

At the end of the day, not every movie has to cater to the same group of people. This Garfield film has the potential to introduce the beloved feline to an entirely new audience who will no doubt find him just as lovable and hilarious as previous generations. At least give it a chance before writing it off as the "worst movie of the year."
