Garfield 2 : A Tale of Two Kitties product reviews

I managed to catch this movie one day while staying with a friend. I missed the first Garfield movie. And to be fair I hadn't been really keen on this one either. Something about computer animation mixed with real actors just stops me being able to suspend my disbelief.

This movie was really good though, beyond my expectations. I mean there were bits that made me groan. But overall, the storyline was pretty funny. I loved some of the animal scenes in particular. They really made me laugh out loud.

The voice acting was pretty star-studded as well. Bill Murray always has good timing. Tim Curry is a riot. Jane Horrocks, who I love in Ab Fab. I'd definitely watch this movie again. My daughter would love it too, as she is animal mad. The idea of talking animals doesn't phase her at all.

I have always laughed hard at Billy Connolly so it was great to see him playing an upper crust stuffed shirt with dreams of greatness. The man is a genius when it comes to 'rough humour' but its been a while since I saw him in a movie. I was also laughing myself silly listening to Tim Curry doing the voice of Prince. Problem was that he sounded almsot EXACTLY like Nigel Thornberry which makes things a little hard to focus on when all I could see in my head was a strange gimpy man with bad dress sense instead of the cat it was supposed to be. The storyline was funny but a bit different from the 'normal' Garfield plots. This wasnt really a bad thing but did take a little getting used to. I thought it was a great movie in most areas and one that will probably give the adults as good a laugh as the kids and will provide almost an hour and a half of laughter. Well worth buying especially since its below average rates.
