Short version: …my kid really liked it, and I laughed in a bunch of places.
Slightly longer version: I’m a little vague about why my youngest kid wanted to see GARFIELD, but he did, and he had a good time. It’s not a bad flick, and there’s nothing pernicious about it. If your own kids like Garfield – or you do – I’m not gonna judge. I have no standing to judge, frankly.
That being said, Odie was entertainingly competent, in an Alfred Pennyworth sort of way.
