Critics Consensus

Strictly for (very) little kids, A Tale of Two Kitties features skilled voice actors but a plot that holds little interest.

At 70-odd minutes it's a short film but not engrossing enough to make time fly.

2/5

Yet another Hollywood kids' film subscribing to the offensive stereotype that Britain is peopled with aristocrats who live on vast estates and are waited on by a devoted and subservient staff.

this movie made me love hop (2011) even more because at least hop was original ( if cliche) than Garfield 2

It only loses half a star because Garfield felt somewhat mischaracterized

The 12% Rotten Tomatoes score for Garfield: A Tale of Two Kitties is genuinely embarrassing, not for the film, but for the people who rated it. This movie didn’t fail; the audience did. Anyone giving this less than five stars either lacks basic media literacy or went in determined to hate fun. Bill Murray is Garfield. The sarcasm, the laziness, the disdain for effort - all intentional, all brilliant. Saying he sounds bored is missing the entire point, which tracks given the critics’ apparent inability to think. The plot is fun, confident, and unapologetically silly. Yes, it’s ridiculous. That’s called entertainment. If you need every movie to be a depressing lecture to feel smart, that’s a you problem. The humour works, the characters are iconic, and the dog is a legend. People who rated this low didn’t want fun - they wanted to feel clever, and failed at both. This movie isn’t bad. You just didn’t get it.

Garfield: Tail of Two Kitties is the purr-fectly mediocre movie for kids who love silly plots and lazy cat jokes. Grading: C-
