As fortune would have it, Odie the dog happens to drop a bone into a hole in the screen separating the cartoon world from the real one, and Garfield sees the perfect opportunity. Jumping through the hole, the orange cat finds himself in the real word - and it's not exactly what he'd hoped. It's cold, lonely, and uncomfortable, and what's more, none of the other cats believe he's the real Garfield from the comic strips. Now our hero needs to find a way back into the comfort zone of his cartoon home, before the newspaper discontinues his comic strip for good. ~ Cammila Albertson, Rovi

Kevin Carr, 7M Pictures
This film isn't flawless, but it's the closest you're going to get to the true Garfield spirit since Paws, Inc. started making animated television specials in the early 1980s.

James Plath, Movie Metropolis
In this movie, Garfield plays a sanitized version of himself.
