Garfield Gets Real

Garfield arrives on the big screen once again, this time in a completely computer-generated movie. Garfield creator Jim Davis provides the script, which follows Garfield as he... more...leaves Cartoon World in favor of the "real world," only to find out how much he misses the things back home once he's crossed over.

Garfield Gets Real(2007)

This movie is directed by Mark A.Z. Dippé and written by Jim Davis.Its a 75 minutes movie.The next movie to this series is Garfield Fun Fest.

===Cast:===

Main cast of attraction in this movie are:
1.Garfield - cat
2.Odie - dog
3.Owner of Garfield - Jon
4.Nermal and Arlene - another cats

===Plot Outline:===
Garfield is a cat who is very lazy.Jon is the owner of Garfield.Another member who lives with them is Odie - a dog.Garfield is a star of a comic strip, but for this lazy cat work is boring.Their place is having so many animated characters.Nermal is a Grey cat,Arlene is pink and Garfield is orange.World's greatest inventor - Walter with his wife Bonita are another part of attraction.Garfield is completely bored of such a boring and same routine.Garfield tells the same thing to Eli - head technician of studio.He tells Garfield that he is a celebrity and people die for what he is!At the another side - Odie is busy in hiding a prop bone.Garfield sees the real world and decides- that's the change he needs.No one can come back from there.Garfield is now a real cat with Odie.No one can understand what he speaks.There is a wall that separates comic world from the real world.All their comic world friends watch them from the same screen.Different incidents are shown which Garfield and Odie face , and are new to them.People of comic strip decides to cancel his strip and there is a contest in paper to replace Garfield's strip.Jon plans to bring Garfield and Odie back, Walter plans to invent something that will bring them back.Garfield and Odie are just given 24 hrs to go back to the comic world.Hale and Hardy - 2 dogs want to take their position.
Garfield realizes that his real world is the comic world only where his heart resides.Many more problems Garfield and Odie face in the real world.Finally what Walter invents to bring them backIs he successful in his attempt.Arlene loves Garfield very much.What happens to Hale and Hardy??Garfield now enjoys his comic world with full enthusiasm.

My opinion:

This a nice movie- just 75 minutes.Nice animation + my one of the favorite character Garfield.You must watch it, but at the same time I feel that the first part was better than this.:)
My little brother enjoyed this movie a lot.He reads lot of comics, so he was quite excited for this movie.So I must suggest Adults who love animes must watch it, and kids should not skip it too.Just Check it out!
